When estranged siblings Joseph (Adam David Thompson) and Sidney (Riley Dandy) rendezvous at a local diner after a close-call robbery, they hightail it to an abandoned farmhouse that transports them to a different time in order to escape the law. Their getaway is derailed when an unknown and cryptic metaphysical force emerges and blocks them from returning home. Trapped on the puzzling plot of land, their captor makes it clear that no one can leave until their deadly demands are met. What results from their entrapment not only bends the forces of spacetime--forcing the two to question everything they know about their own reality--but pushes their familial bonds to the breaking point.

Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com The thematic subtext of people stuck in their troubled existence is a solid foundation, but Felker can’t find the momentum in a story about people who have so little of it. Mar 20, 2024 Full Review Christian Zilko indieWire Alternating between grandiose mythology and unvarnished thrills, “Things Will Be Different” is a promising directorial debut that embraces its creative limitations to put a fresh spin on familiar time-travel tropes. Rated: B+ Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting An accomplished, affecting directorial feature debut that smartly uses its time concept to give a pair of morally skewed siblings a chance to rewrite the past for the sake of a better future. Rated: 4/5 Mar 13, 2024 Full Review Deirdre Crimmins Rue Morgue Magazine A horrifying speculative fiction film that asks, “What if?” and answers that question with mental and physical terror... Things Will Be Different is an incredible film. May 4, 2024 Full Review Dan Scully ScullyVision The best kind of head-scratcher, and one I’ll be thinking about for some time. Apr 12, 2024 Full Review Amanda the Jedi Amanda the Jedi (Youtube) Small scale sci fi can be some of the most compelling the genre has to offer, THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT is no exception.
