Watching and logging #horror movies like they’ve gone out of style. And totally not understanding that saying.

    ★★★★½

    Powerful. Great, unexpected ending. And it was fantastic seeing Rectify's Clayne Crawford and Aden Young together again.

    Oh, and is this where J.D. got his “you’re supposed to say thank you” bit?

    ★★

    It only took me half a dozen tries, but I finally made it through Madame Web! Someone please explain to me how a group of usually competent actresses and Dakota Johnson all turned in performances this bad.

    Great vibes, and Cage's character was kind of fun. The story's really the only thing here that disappoints. Longlegs (the film) focuses too much on its creepiness factor and mid-90s setting and forgets to place interesting clues along the way to its questionable end, choosing instead to give us a big exposition dump. And even that neglects to fill in the many blanks. I mean, an upside-down triangle?

    The story's nothing revolutionary, and I wasn't familiar enough with the religious and political themes, but I liked this movie. Fantastic action, direction, cinematography, acting. And the soundtrack was bomb. Like Kid working the heavy bag, I was tapping my feet to the rhythms from beginning to end.
