‘Vivarium’ Clip: Jesse Eisenberg and Imogen Poots Promised a House Too Good to be True? [Exclusive]

Now streaming on all VOD platforms is Vivarium, a new sci-fi thriller that imprisons Jesse Eisenberg (Zombieland) and Imogen Poots (Green Room, Black Christmas) in suburbia with a baby.

In Lorcan Finnegan’s feature that feels all too real right now, “A young couple, played by Poots and Eisenberg, are in search of a starter home. They follow a mysterious estate agent and find themselves trapped in a strange housing development with a baby and an accompanying note: “Raise the child and be released.”

In this exclusive clip, we see a strange realtor sell the couple on their new home where they’ll be forging all kinds of wonderful memories. You know what they say about something being too good to be true…

Our very own Joe Lipsett reviewed the film out of this past summer’s Fantasia Fest in Montreal, writing that Vivarium “explores the darker side of the suburbs,” further adding that it’s “built on some pretty deep ideas about life goals, capitalism, gender roles and parenting.”

The film will eventually move to DVD and Blu-ray on May 12th via Lionsgate Home Entertainment.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones.
