Primer was a very confusing movie. The science in the movie wasn't very clear and the way they talked didn't really help. During the first scenes they would each talk over each other making it hard to understand the already confusing subject they're talking about. Abe and Aaron accidentally build a time travel machine by trying to build a machine that lowers the weight of an object. After they insert a watch into the box, they find that the watch had traveled into the future and bounced back. They soon made a box big enough for themselves and time traveled for personal gains. It was very science fiction and supernatural as time itself is very hard to control. This reminds of Cabin in the Woods also were control is a very big part of the film.
LIMBO is also a very interesting game with a very fitting name. Limbo is like an intermediate state, an uncertain period of resolution, a purgatory state, which is kind of how the game is. The little boy "wakes" up in a dark forest and we are left clueless as to what exactly is going on but to just move forward and avoid all the traps set up. It also very much ties in with the horror and gothic genre as it involves a great deal of nature and family also; he is trying to find his missing sister which we don't know if he every does indeed find her.
