Things Will Be Different

Things Will Be Different (2024) is a sci-fi horror you can watch online on iFILM. The directing debut of longtime indie editor Michael Felker takes a plain robbery setup and folds it into a puzzle about time and family.

Joseph and Sidney are estranged siblings who pull off a job and need somewhere the police can't reach. They pick a farmhouse that turns out to be anything but ordinary — it tucks them away in a different time, the perfect place to wait out the heat and walk away rich. That was the plan. Instead the loop tightens, a strange force stirs inside the house, and the bond between brother and sister starts snapping at points neither of them saw coming.

Few characters, one location, paranoia climbing scene by scene — this is for fans of brainy low-budget science fiction in the Benson-and-Moorhead vein. Less ride, more slow trap. Stream Things Will Be Different (2024) online on iFILM.
