    Kicking and Screaming

    A couple funny moments and relatable post-grad existentialism… otherwise just misogyny and insufferable characters

    Reminded me of don’t look now with the heightened 70s acting style and punchy editing and mysterious vibes.. very enjoyable. Pan flute was popping off 😮‍💨

    ★★½

    So much potential squandered… such interesting themes and characters and mix of genres but the experience of watching the film is horribly boring.

    Thinkin bout this in relation to babygirl and how they both tackle shame around female sexuality and actually end on a somewhat positive note (as in the women are able to accept and take control of said sexuality) woohoo! love how this version centers ellen and gives her a lot more agency. Eggers does a mostly good job at creating an atmosphere of true fear while balancing realism and the supernatural. Nicholas hoult and lily rose-depp did a lot of the heavy lifting there with very grounded performances as a man scared out of his wits and a woman possessed by… horniness?
