Repeaters is a 2010 Canadian indie thriller film directed by Carl Bessai, written by Arne Olsen, and starring Dustin Milligan, Amanda Crew, and Richard de Klerk. It follows the story of three young drug addicts who are forced to relive the same day over and over again as they attempt to break the cycle of addiction and violence that has trapped them in a never-ending cycle of despair.

The film is set in a remote rehabilitation facility in British Columbia, where three young addicts – Kyle, Sonia, and Michael – are sent to overcome their drug dependencies. However, during a routine day of therapy, the trio experiences a strange electrical storm and wake up to find themselves reliving the exact same day over and over again.

As they begin to realize that they are caught in a time loop, the three friends start to experiment with their newfound power by making different choices and exploring their darkest impulses. But as they become increasingly reckless, they soon discover that their actions have dire consequences, not just for themselves but for everyone around them.

The film has been described as a mix of Groundhog Day and Trainspotting, with a touch of After Hours thrown in for good measure. It blends elements of science fiction and horror with gritty realism to create a dark, disturbing, and thought-provoking tale of addiction and redemption.

Dustin Milligan delivers a standout performance as Kyle, a troubled young man who is desperate to break free from his addiction and start over. Amanda Crew is equally impressive as Sonia, a damaged young woman who uses drugs to mask the pain of her traumatic past. And Richard de Klerk brings a sense of menace and unpredictability to his role as Michael, a sociopath who revels in the chaos and violence of their eternal prison.

The film's use of repetition and symbolism is particularly effective, as it explores the cycle of addiction and the ways in which our past traumas and mistakes can haunt us forever. The three protagonists are trapped in a never-ending cycle of self-destruction, forced to confront their own demons and the consequences of their actions time and time again.

Overall, Repeaters is a powerful and haunting film that explores the dark side of addiction and the human psyche with unflinching honesty. It's a challenging and thought-provoking experience that will stay with you long after the credits roll.

Repeaters is a 2010 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 29 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.7.
