i’ve seen this movie twice now, and although some scenes are awfully hard to watch, the camerawork and symbolism is amazing. it’s masterfully written with both high intensity and comedic moments. if you can handle blood and guts and body horror vfx, you need to watch this film. i would say that the first watch felt very long, but watching it again definitely gave me another perspective.

You probably have seen this movie by now because obviously, it is very popular. I was looking for something to watch and that popped up, and I briefly considered watching it but only for a moment.
I saw this movie with my husband in the theaters. I was expecting to be scared but instead, I was overwhelmed with the pain, grief, and trauma for the almost entire movie. The scene where the mom is yelling at Peter absolutely gutted me. I cried basically the whole time, even into the credits. I kind of missed all of the scary stuff because I was just weeping (lol).
I have watched it once since then, and it still was very disturbing to me, but I was able to pick up on the horror of it as well. It is amazing film, and I will probably never watch it again.

I’m sure this movie has been recommended by many on this app over the course of October but I need to add my name to the list of recommenders. I linked my review (it does have some spoilers towards the end) but I needed to get some thoughts out. Even after finishing the movie over an hour ago I’m still thinking about it and the visuals. A movie made in the language of film, in the lineage of films, for people who care and respect about cinema as a unique artistic and storytelling medium.
If you need a final push to see this movie, please let this be that final push.

I know there is no shortage of discussion and appreciation for this but I just saw the directors cut at the Alamo and it really clicked this time
I watched it first in eighth grade study hall on my phone constantly looking over my shoulder especially during that scene and then the second time in a dorm lounge with everyone else mad at me for picking such a “weird” movie (however those same friends liked infinity pool when we went so I don’t really know what could’ve been that much more off putting about this)
It is just so well done and I love all the buildings that were actually constructed
I also love all the moments of silence throughout they really just elevated the discomfort of everything happening
Also for how fucked up it is it is also so funny which I love
Acting is phenomenal too I love William Jackson Harper, Florence Pugh and Will Poulter
Unrelated note: diet coke is THE drink of the people there were 9 other people in the theater and literally every one of them ordered a Diet Coke

some time last year on a road trip, i came across Fievel Is Glauque. “what the fuck is a Fievel?” i asked hnyre, to which he responded “y’know, that one cartoon mouse“(i’d never seen it). after listening to their song Hit Me Now, i fell in love with their rough production style combined with the wacky rhythmic and harmonic jazz bullshit you’d hear music nerds audibly orgasm over. though, sometimes with that irregular music riff-raff, you ought to pair it with sounding like you recorded your album inside a comical rusty garbage can with a single mic(i‘m overcompensating), which Fievel Is Glauque does amazingly with their record “God’s Trashmen Sent to Right the Mess”. listened to the entire thing right after i found the first song. had 0 skips from me!
their new single that’s preceding the next album drop is also pretty incredible, in which it seems like the trash men have righted the mess with a much “cleaner” sound this time around.
gotta say, i also just love french singing. no wonder why Pomplamoose has a new viral video every other moon
