“The Farm” is a 2018 horror movie produced by Red Dog Films. The film revolves around a road trip gone awry, leading the travelers to a farm with a horrifying secret: instead of farming animals, this farm cultivates people for sinister purposes. Throughout the movie, I couldn’t help but feel that it served as a commentary on modern-day commercial animal farming practices. Notably, the film portrays women being treated like livestock, confined in small cages and subjected to milking. The chilling climax of the film depicts the girlfriend of the road-tripping couple and her friend being roasted on a table with apples in their mouths.
The story follows the couple on their way to California, with an unexpected stopover in a town where they seek a place to spend the night. They unwittingly stay at a cabin that leads to their capture by the farm’s sinister inhabitants. Nora, one of the protagonists, is forcibly impregnated for future milking. Men in the film are farmed for human “beef” once they can no longer be milked. The inn’s manager is revealed as the mastermind behind the farm’s operations. All the farm’s inhabitants wear eerie animal masks and refuse to speak. Furthermore, they serve human meat at a cafe featured earlier in the movie.
In my opinion, “The Farm” is a captivating and thought-provoking horror film. It offers a unique and unsettling narrative that encourages viewers to contemplate its underlying themes. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys unconventional horror movies that provoke thought.
I would rate this movie 7/10.
