undertone

I don't know what got into me watching this but I was actually terrified for the whole runtime. Watched most of it through my hands. It genuinely took me about an hour to recover after leaving the screening. That's not to say that everyone that watches it will being crying, screaming and throwing up like I was, but it just hit something in me. Something about paranormal podcasts, sleep walking and catholic imagery. Like that's my bag! My boyfriend went through a period of waking himself up at the same time every night reciting the Lord's prayer...may have something to do with my visceral reaction. Seeing this in the cinema was definitely the way to go because the sound design was fucking impecable. However I wish we'd skipped the trailers. Watching the best 3 mins of every upcoming horror film did not help me enter this in the right mindset. Hereditary meets babadook.
