Absurd nightmare comedy on speed about a business opportunity. Branson Reese wide-eyed in hell. Seven and a half minutes of pure churn.
Kati Skelton lets the whole thing run at the speed of a panic attack — Brazil reorchestrated as a Soundcloud loop, and the inventive rhythm earns the absurdist nightmare. Genuinely punchy.
