Stoker is a wonderfully crafted masterpiece, composed of Amy Dunne’s wet dreams and Ethel Cain's lyrics, glued together. It’s the convergence of past and present into ultimately one being that was determined the moment of its conception. It’s whispers that thunder louder than voices, of the steady flow of blood rather than water, and the unhurried metamorphosis of a girl into the woman she was always meant to be. There is nothing linear about this film; rather, it fades into itself, with scenes disappearing before they are solid and returning between tense moments ready to spill over. Just... wow.

Walked into the theatre. Kids who are clearly familiar with the movie sit behind me and start chatting. Surely they’ll stop when the movie begins, right?

No. 

Any time there’s a cut or a dissolve, or a fast pan, or any other hallmark PCW technique they laughed and chatted. Anything to build tension also had them laughing and carrying on. 

I turn around; “Guys, please.”

They are silent. Finally I can get into the film. I am prepared for my GOAT to dazzle me.

However, those kids knew something I did not. The movie. It’s bad. I was wrong to shush them. This picture didn’t deserve my attention. I’m fairly sure the moral of the film is that being autistic is evil? Not sure.

PCW managed to get a bad performance out of Nicole Kidman. That’s difficult to do. Generational work, truly.

The only redemptive qualities are the fact it looks pretty and that Alice in Wonderland wanks to the memory of her uncle killing the guy she tried to fuck about catching him with her mum. I would have given this movie a pass if it let itself be fucked up all the way through. But it wasn’t. It kept lingering on the fucking Good Doctor and making the kids behind me laugh.

In the end I was laughing with them too.

Dogshit movie.
