    I remember first watching this in the theatre years ago and I didn’t appreciate it enough at the time (small cinema brain Eric 2022).

    Since then I am much more aware of restaurant etiquette (chef friends that cook, etc) and the analogies one can draw to real life.

    This shit was hilarious, too.

    I’m glad I got some good laughs out of this one because I got mixed reviews from all over the place beforehand.

    Definitely some of the more brutal kill scenes but a little corny at times.

    This is one I’ll tell my grandkids about. Finally a scary ass movie not from A24- shoutout to Neon production, you’ve made a fan out of me.

    First 3 minutes off rip give you the chills and it really never ends the rest of the way. It’s a complete horror film with thriller/suspense and murder mystery all wrapped into one. 

    So many movies to think about as you enjoy this one:
    Carrie, Psycho, Sinister, Seven, Silence of the lambs. Now…

    ★★★★

    Hell of a film that paints a picture of a number of human experiences: love, emptiness, fulfillment, travel, lust, and the list goes on.

    All this to say it’s done in such a twisted and creative way. I honestly could write a 2 page paper on this one. 

    Self-awareness and self-realization come to the human experience through so many ways, things, people, feelings, etc. You’d never expect to see it depicted this way.

    Perhaps it is a woman’s world we live in…
