Netflix within three years ago. Colour. English. Cinematography suggests somewhere around the 90s.
I saw a movie a while back and I can’t find it again. It was weird and dark, very Tim Burtony. It’s an inn or boardinghouse by the sea. The residents ate crappy food and that’s what kept them ill. They started eating better food and started getting better. There was a bit about a boat at the end of the pier, but I can’t remember. I think that’s how people got off the island that the inn was on?
A friend on Facebook is suggesting that they were serving contaminated fish and that sounds very correct. He says that Simin Pegg may be in it, but I’m not certain of that.
Things it’s not: A Fantastic Fear of Everything.
