A very odd movie, mysterious and somewhat slow moving

I watched the movie on YouTube while searching for science fiction movies. The plot development is quite slow, and while waiting for things to come together and make some sort of sense, I considered several times bailing. I held on though and towards the end, when I thought it was starting to make sense, the movie abruptly ended in a very unexpected scene. Most of the movement in the plot, occurs in the last 15 minutes. I wasn't even sure it was science fiction until the last scenes.

In the course of the movie, you are introduced to a variety of townspeople, each of which have town history that is not often discussed. I would have liked the ending scenes too have been moving more slowly, so there would have been a deeper understanding of the relationships between the townspeople.

The movie has an interesting theme, and the premise was thought provoking. By the ending scenes though, more questions had been raised them answered.
