Stalker

Your enjoyment of this is film is most likely going to be determined on how great your own imagination is with filling in the blanks of this world, and how Tarkovsky uses his limitations (this would cost about €10,000 to make) to create a horrifying world with what’s implied and what you can feel, alongside your willingness to engage with the philosophical ideas it’s presenting. So anyways, amazing film. Alongside Kubrick and Haneke’s best with how meticulous everything feels. I hate the intrusive thought that I had during the dream sequence that The Zone is not too far off of a concept as the Backrooms became.
