The Buildout

I should have been tipped off by the fact that Tubi called this "Drama, Horror". Perhaps the least interesting movie I've ever seen. A young woman who has apparently joined a cult brings an old friend out to the middle of the desert on a dirtbiking trip to see her "new home", a tent in the middle of nowhere. They talk for about an hour of this 70-minute movie. The friend's apparently dead sister appears momentarily outside the tent with a blurry figure far behind her on the horizon, which is never explained, and then they go to bed, and one, waking up hearing the sound of a motor bike in the middle of the night, goes to see what it is and disappears, and the other, finding the motorbike idling alone in the dark, hops on it in search of her. The End. You gotta be fucking kidding me.

Oh, also, there's occasional random scenes of a man in the desert with pretentious voiceover narration and a timpani soundtrack. Except for the desert setting, this is not connected to anything else in the movie.
