This film feels a bit mismarketed, it obviously doesn't have horror as a genre, but you can't exactly blame anybody who thought that was what they were getting into with its presentation on Hulu.

In actuality, this is a dramatic suspense film with a doctor, played by Michael Ekuland, attempting to find the cure for the disease that killed his son. Now at a research center in Germany, he finds himself butting heads with a rival researcher who seems to be performing experiments behind the backs of his fellow colleagues.

It is a good film, though its ending feels a little lackluster in comparison to an explosive confrontation preceeding it. Some reviewers may find to boring, but i believe this is again due to their expectations this will be similar to something like Cronenberg's The Fly, it's not.

For what it's worth, it's an enjoyable thriller that you can easily switch on without fear of feeling really creeped out by the end.

'Timewave' is quite good when you're simply looking for an episode of Red Dwarf that relies more on comedy than anything else. Some jokes don't land, but others are quite good, "-Kryten shut up!" and "This mechanoid is reversing." are highlights plus I love the lighting which is really a compliment for the whole of Series XI & XII.
