I don’t like to rate on letterboxd unless I am giving something 5 stars because I am not a professional critic, just a fan with strong opinions. This movie was an instant 5 stars. I especially love horror movies and this one did it for me. There are so many movies about killers breaking into people’s homes, I didn’t go into it expecting to be blown away, but the camera angles, the editing, the acting, the tension, the way it moves - I loved it.

the best lit nightmare. gorgeously shot, perfect score, best opening sequence i’ve seen in ages! really, really fun, and also really, really unsettling and hard to watch at times. memorable and insane.

I know there is no shortage of discussion and appreciation for this but I just saw the directors cut at the Alamo and it really clicked this time
I watched it first in eighth grade study hall on my phone constantly looking over my shoulder especially during that scene and then the second time in a dorm lounge with everyone else mad at me for picking such a “weird” movie (however those same friends liked infinity pool when we went so I don’t really know what could’ve been that much more off putting about this)
It is just so well done and I love all the buildings that were actually constructed
I also love all the moments of silence throughout they really just elevated the discomfort of everything happening
Also for how fucked up it is it is also so funny which I love
Acting is phenomenal too I love William Jackson Harper, Florence Pugh and Will Poulter
Unrelated note: diet coke is THE drink of the people there were 9 other people in the theater and literally every one of them ordered a Diet Coke

I found out about this band recently and have been obsessed with their record “Know by Heart” since I heard it. Their shoegaze-leaning stuff is immaculate, but pigeon holing them as a shoegaze band doesn’t feel right because their discography expands far beyond that in my opinion. I love the lyricism, the drum sounds, the riffs.

I find myself mostly reading fiction written by gay men about being a gay man, so when I was given a copy by my girlfriend, I devoured it. The story itself is beautifully constructed and the way he writes made me feel a lot of things. It’s the kind of book that makes me want to write lyrics. I cried like a baby multiple times throughout and felt like something, somewhere had shifted in me when I was finished reading it.

I have no idea how I only just found out about this band, considering how directly up my alley they are, but I’m so grateful to have been turned onto them now. I’m not sure what to say, beyond challenging whoever is reading this to find a single bad song in their discography. I also can’t believe they’re american because they do not sound it.
