Bugonia

Bugonia (2025) is a sci-fi comedy thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Yorgos Lanthimos and written by Will Tracy. Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons star in this deadpan absurdist caper shot in VistaVision. The tagline says it all: of all the abductions, this one is different.

Teddy is a conspiracy-addled warehouse worker who has decided that his boss Michelle — a high-powered corporate CEO — is actually an alien scout from the Andromeda galaxy. He kidnaps her with the help of his not-very-bright cousin and locks her in a basement. The plan: force her to dictate a message to the Andromedan emperor demanding a full withdrawal from planet Earth. Emma Stone shaved her head for the role. Jesse Plemons is perfectly deadpan throughout.

This is the sixth collaboration between Lanthimos and Stone — following Poor Things and The Favourite — and the director turns his signature cold logic on paranoid delusion with typically unsettling results. Stream Bugonia (2025) online on iFILM.
