    Very good, but very fucked up. Hit close to home in the lifestyle I lived as a teenager, just luck that things didn’t end up like they did in the movie.

      Agreed lol. Finally had the heart to watch it last weekend (after having known it was by A24 films). Suffice it to say, it fucked me up at different parts of the film. Amazing juxtaposition between cult/psychological horror and colorful, vibrant scenery. Great film, but probably won’t watch it again.

      Have heard a lot about Hereditary too, but not sure if I have enough courage to watch yet.

      One of my favorite movies of all time just because of the psychological horror aspect

    Hardcore Henry.

    It’s an easy answer. It’s a very pulpy, violent, action film shot entirely in a real time first person vantage. A guy gets experimented on, escapes from the mad scientist, then goes on a 90 min video game quest to save his kidnapped wife. It’s all explosions and train fights. It’s the kind of thing you worry that people will respect you less for having enjoyed, but it’s honestly an outstanding use of cinema and very fun.

      Just watched that a few weeks back. Took years to psyche myself up to watch it, due to it’s notoriety. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be, but it is NOT for the faint hearted. Truly a masterwork in acting and cinematography. The sound, in particular, was haunting and dissonant.

      Yea there’s something to this movie, even though it’s kinda b-grade sci-fi horror. The idea and its presentation has something can get under your skin … including “that scene” (if you know you know).

      I watched it as fairly young kid, at home alone, with most lights off (never being really bothered by horror), and no horror movie has troubled me more than that as I fell asleep thinking about if “that place” actually exists.

        The movie has an interesting story about how so much was cut or couldn’t even be filmed and the editing ended up all over the place, the movie ist barely coherent at times. But the feeling I got just thinking about that place was captivating nonetheless, great movie. Captures the vastness and loneliness of space well imo
