Between wanting to be a sort of meta-documentary/concert/drama film with horror overtones, The Nowhere Inn ends up empty-handed in an attempt full of undeveloped ideas that ultimately ends up saying absolutely nothing.

Ironically the film may be self aware of this, as seen with the Limo intro “I’m not for everyone”, and Carrie stating the documentary is for the fans.

It will be fair to say the film won’t be for everyone either, with it’s zany mix of comedy and drama, and Lynch inspired philosophical psychological horror on thrown on top of it, it may be a hard watch for those just wanting wanting a relaxing popcorn flick. However with it’s well crafted writing, visuals and directing, if you’re open to this rollercoaster ride, it may very well just stick with you for a while.
