“In the hopes of revitalizing their marriage, a husband and wife retreat to a remote cabin getaway with some longtime friends. Their pleasant interaction quickly assumes a relentless intensity as they push one another, mentally and physically, towards transcendence. This shortcut to enlightenment, however, has unexpected consequences.” – DM
“Excursions is a slow burn that eventually sets your hair on fire. What begins as an idyllic couples getaway for Los Angeles yuppies quickly subverts into an animalistic symphony of oddities that pulls viewers down a rabbit hole, and then collapses the hole behind them.” – Josh Mandel, Slamdanc
