Such a strange movie. usually i like movies with no real plot but i was scared the whole time. Morvern girl what is wrong with u. But laawwwdd i know why my film studies prof chose it. a movie with barely any structure and insane visuals and it Still has substanceā something directors now have no idea how to do successfullyā¦ (cough cough saltburn cough cough longlegs) so haunting visually and emotionally iāve been thinking about it all week

It was cool. Very quiet film, sound design was amazing so it had that going for it. it has a very unsettling atmosphere, I hate when thereās a wide shot and you question whatās around the corner. Super effective throughout the whole film, there were moments when I wanted to leave because I canāt stand that shit, makes my skin crawl man. My girl also kept saying Longlegs was āservingā and that he was āthat girlā so that made the movie funnier. Good time. Donāt know if Iāll rewatch though.

Cuckoo was unexpectedly emotional and had me crying in the theater. It leaned more towards campy sci-fi thriller B-movie to me and the trailer unfortunately blew its load on some of the best moments (as trailers often do) but I enjoyed itāgorgeous and fun to watch!
Oddity is atmospheric and perfectly executed as a slow burn spooky story with a modern gothic feel. I regret not having seen it in theaters during its limited run because Iām sure it would have been especially intense but it was still pretty scary to watch at home. Giddy thrills!
Also I just finished Immaculateā¦ I wanted to hate it and Sydney Sweeney badly needs a dialogue coach but it was a fun vibey Giallo homage (thematically not visually). I love how goofy and over the top it was. Impressive that she managed to find a way to show her boobs in a movie where she plays a nun
(Notice Longlegs is not on this list. I feel like Iām harshly critical towards it because it was so ambitious but didnāt stick the landing and could have been better without exposition dump and loss of tension at the end. I would have preferred a little more mystery and ambiguity and also maybe more esoteric occult elementsā¦ I absolutely hated The Blackcoatās Daughter but I could have loved this one and instead I feel lukewarm towards it š)

this movie is such a slow burner and then it hits you with the most bone-chilling horror sequence iāve ever seen. i watched this when i was pretty young and it gave me nightmares for weeks.
