very pretty but too long and kinda boring. someone get this man an editor!
reaffirms both my nostalgic love for the Caribbean, and my general aversion to puppetry as an art form…
someone REALLY needed to show this director the scene from ‘Being John Malkovich’ where John Cusack tells Catherine Keener that the allure of puppeteering is ‘being in someone else’s skin, feeling what they feel’ and she says ‘YIKES!’
you 👶🏻 vs the guy she tells you not to worry about….🧟♂️
Thoughts:
Genuinely very scary, + engaging despite a longer runtime. Honestly might be the best movie remake of the millennium that is not a revamp / major reimagining?? Def a masterful entry into the cannon of vampire movies by Eggers, whose experience with period pieces, folklore-inspired horror (the witch) and straight psychological horror (the lighthouse) really give the film the kind of rich detail and meticulous dialog needed…
i’m gonna make all my students watch this before i let them put any mussels back on the shelf
