To the tune of Abba's “Dancing Queen”
🎶🎵🎶
You are the Sommar queen
Swedish heat,
You can barely sleep
Sommar Queen
Pulsing leaves from the mushroom tea, oh yea
Constant trance
You are high
Fighting for your dear friends' life
OoOoh, see that mural
It's obscene
Dig in the Summar queen
🎵🎶🎵
Ari Aster continues to present his horror films without the usual [and by now, overplayed] tropes by showing just enough to keep you creeped-out, with no cheap tricks…
Crawling in my skin with cringe. Millennial humor overload and none of it landed. Gore shock and rANdoM with no substance. Puke.
In love on the second watch. So dense. So painful. So beautiful.
Gorgeous finale.
If it didn’t click on first watch (as it did not for me), give some write-up’s a read and try again. Trust in the Kaufman.
Let’s have some stiffly-delivered pseudo-intellectual conversations in-between classic disco cuts with a completely useless plot: The Movie
God what a piece of shit. Was one of the tougher movies to finish in recent memory and I just saw the new Mulan a few days ago.
Chloë Sevigny was the best thing about it, but you can only polish a turd so much.
Convinced 99% of the 4 1/2 - 5 star reviews on here are ironic.
...also, how the fuck did this make the Criterion Collection??
