We can probably agree that growing up is hell, but growing up alone in the desert is another kind of hell altogether. That’s what one hiker (Scott Haze) finds out when he encounters a lost child while photographing a solar eclipse. What starts as an act of good Samaritanism turns into a deadly cat-and-mouse game between him, a group of menacing teenage boys, and a mysterious woman with a unique connection to them (Kate Lyn Sheil). As it turns out, The Seeding is more than just an eye-catching title. It’s something much more terrifying. From the very first scene of Barnaby Clay’s feature directorial debut, audiences will be on the edge of their seats. A slow-burning thriller from a prolific music video director, The Seeding is a stone-cold nightmare that confronts our fears of isolation and unchecked toxic masculinity headfirst. Boys will be boys, and in the vastness of the California desert, their worst impulses come out to play. (Tribeca Film Festival)

Une variation plaisante sur le thème du drame sectaire en pleine nature. Un peu prévisible, mais divertissant. Malgré un sujet simple et un cadre limité, The Seeding est suffisamment engageant pour susciter la curiosité sur la façon dont le personnage principal sera traité. Une musique sombre, un pressentiment de mauvais lendemains et un bon jeu d’acteur de la part de Scott Haze. Il est le seul véritable ingrédient de qualité du film. [Festival du film de Sitges]
