oh boy this got me. It’s been a while since a movie genuinely unnerved me. the close-up of the inflatable doll filling with water made me feel nauseated. great score, sharp sense of humor. dated, obviously, but the delivery helps it hold up.
I’m conflicted about the whole george of it all. the forced transition to pitiful psychopath pipeline is a narrative I don’t care for, yet I really am intrigued by the character and his particular insanity. unfortunately even if there was a different framing of the trans aspect, it'd still have a layer of offense you can’t really shake. optics wise, uh yeah man never ever good to portray trans characters as murderous sex criminals.
that said, optics are boring ://// and the whole perspective is very queer so it's not a huge point of contention for me. the thesis rests on repressions corruption of desire, naturally it’s all very distasteful. in a good way!!!
