  The Substance 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 12 Dec 2024

  Thankful that I didn't watch this last week on my birthday, as I would have hurled myself off my third-floor balcony within the first 15 minutes. Full movie is an absolute banger, though.

  Terrifier 2 2022

  ★ Watched 23 Oct 2024 1

  While I can appreciate the grassroots rise of the Terrifier franchise and this film's numerous cleverly realized practical effects, there's a mean-spiritedness and zeal for violent mutilation here that is just not my idea of a good time.

  Midsommar 2019

  ★★★★½ Watched 18 Jun 2019 2

  Things that are great about MIDSOMMAR:

  1. Florence Pugh.
  2. Henrik Svensson's next-level production design.
  3. Pawel Pogorzelski's slow, steady camera that lulls you into a state of calm.
  4. Ari Aster meditating intensely about trauma and loss in the most fucked up ways.
