While we’ve seen the story of a horrific transformation into a monster, we now get to see the even more horrific story of refusing to change. The prison of nostalgia, self hatred, fear of the unknown; a frozen, uncanny existence of the denial of reality and time that ultimately is something even worse than becoming a monster. A deeply unsettling and slightly heavy handed film that will live in the corners of my memory!

Longlegs 2024
The first act, the lighting, shot composition, sound, directing were all FAB.
I think the weakness here was in the script and the pacing, especially towards the end as the “mysteries” are unraveled. Still effective as a horror movie (I was scared!) but I wish we saw more of the detective / serial killer dynamic that was marketed, rather than the half baked cult stuff. Way too much Nic Cage, he was scary until he just became Nic Cage. So many good choices here, and so visually appealing. Unfortunately fell a bit flat.Translated from by -
Poor Things 2023
Fucking fabulous. Stunning. Would also love to see it again bc Pedro Pascal was sitting in the row behind me and I was not completely focused.
