3.0*/5.0*

A mysterious sci-fi whose Canadian roots and love for body horror make for an easy Cronenberg reference. There is quite a bit of potential here and director Smith goes a long way on a tiny budget, but it never quite comes together and in the end, this felt like a lesser version of Beyond the Black Rainbow.

The film remains mysterious until the very end, the body horror is properly done and the small space is used well. The film still feels a little cheap though, better use of score and cinematography could've elevated Tin Can quite a bit. An interesting film alright, but it lacks the finishing touches to be great.
