I managed to see Annihilation before it crept out out of theaters, and I loved it. Natalie Portman (Luke & Leia's mom in the Star Wars prequels; Thor's girlfriend Jane in the first two Thor flicks) stars as a scientist who volunteers to investigate a strange scientific anomaly that occurs when a meteorite strikes the Earth. The area where it hits is transformed into a weird, otherworldly landscape.
The movie is intelligent, and exciting--and that's even without the bondage scene with three of the lead actresses. They're tied to chairs, fully clothed (that includes shoes) and gagged with over the mouth cloths. It's a nice scene for fans of this stuff (like me), but it's also very scary and suspenseful within the context of the movie as well.
The movie overall is an extremely enjoyable hard SF story (mixed with horror elements) with a mind-bending finale that makes me want to see it again. Highly recommended.
