    ★★★½

    Appreciated this more on the second watch. The disturbing parts stay disturbing, and I noticed this time just how much violence is lurking in empty hallways, billowing curtains, and most of all, staircases.

    I remember thinking on my first watch that the ending had a clear sinister undertone to it, a statement that the cycle of violence that had just ended was about to begin again. I don’t remember what made me feel that way, because that’s not at all…

    Formally interesting, but ultimately too vibe-based for me, I think.

    On the first watch the egg scene was kinda gross but on the second watch it was beautiful and mesmerizing and I think that really shows how things that are gross can also be beautiful and mesmerizing and I think that’s neat

    Gruesome, funny, and quirky, but ultimately not that deep. I think I liked Dogtooth better, maybe because it felt like it was more fleshed out? Idk; was entertained, didn’t hate it, didn’t love it.
