my theater experience was not great, so i’m wondering if it impacted how much i liked the movie, but i dunno guys. i think as a debut feature, parsons did a great job. he has a real understanding for atmospheric horror and will definitely be talked about fondly for a long time. that being said, i didn’t love it :/ the performances were good, the set design was absolutely astounding, and they are doing massive things by putting boys in crop tops again. i also really love watching people run around. outside of that, i felt it was a little lacking. i really liked the uncanny valley feel of the still life(s), but i wish the entity was a little more frightening! i also feel that the scenes outside the backrooms were just alright. they didn’t drag per se, but i wish there was something more to keep me invested in the characters. ironically, i think they could’ve cut the duplass scenes before the very last bit.  but also kane parsons is 20 and made this objectively well-made movie and im a lazy fat chud so who am i to give notes lets bffr. i feel like such a negative nancy in this, i actually really did enjoy watching it lol

another movie that affirms my belief that love is a prison and you are either a prisoner or the warden and there is no other option at all. i do wish the shot composition was a little more visually interesting, but overall i really enjoyed it. a movie that has me anxious 3 days after seeing it is a movie that i enjoy. very impressed with the whole cast and crew & i cannot WAIT for everyone’s next project(s)

my jaw dropped when the credits rolled very fun, this is a comedy show that would be way more enjoyable in person though so on that principle im not going to rate it bc i feel like it’s not fair

in 10 years, the new generation of transmac lesbians and film bros will gather to debate whether donnie is a metaphor for christ or not
