It’s upsetting, relentless and depraved. And it’s very real. Imagine the anxiety inducing chokehold of the final act of mother! but without any metaphysical elements. Just watched it out of curiosity. Had some moments of tension and yeah it was quite dark Spoiler The ending kinda sucked though. There was no justice for the bad guys actions, I wanted one of them to get shot or stabbed or something?? Or that something would be revealed from the passport that would make them feel remorseful (though there’s no changing these peoples’ minds) The girl surviving did nothing for me except fantasise about an action movie sequel like Kill Bill lol. Was OK, a bit different which is always nice and the acting was actually really good
mellenthin Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 I had to turn off the latest Scream after the intro scene. The second I saw both the 13RW guy and the guy from Euphoria I just couldn't continue. The few minutes I watched of them acting was enough mediocrity for an entire movie

Some of the worst acting I've seen in a major film this year. Too fanfic-y for my liking overall, much like Halloqueef 2018 and some other "requels" as of late.

Yeah wish them being brought to justice was part of the movie, but that would be a weird tonal shift into drama land. Thinking on it more, I don't quite know what the purpose of the movie was.. people who share these thoughts can watch this film and quite easily disassociate as it was an extreme isolated incident. Idk could've been handled better but it is what it is. I did also like the beginning with the reveal of the pie while they're having 'casual' conversation

Reverse Warholian Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 @TalkThatRihanna are you streaming Barbarian on HBO Max? What's your favorite scary movie? ??♀️
Kingpin Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Pearl was a bop, Mia Goth is a star!! I couldn’t put my finger on who she reminds me of but its Rachel Ray lol, interested to see X Smile was cute too! I don’t normally pay attention to sound design stuff but it was really good, lots of interesting sounds and transition. There were bits that reminded me of that ugly dirty cursed music in Sinister
lillavend3r Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 Enough time has passed and I'm here to say that even though Halloween Ends was a mess, the Rob Zzzzombie films are still worse
