I’m so excited for Lola. I hope it’s as interesting as critics are claiming.

I may also go see Talk to Me, as it’s a three-day weekend here.

Of these, I really wanna see Passages... hoping to get to it this weekend!

Just saw Talk to Me last night. It was pretty predictable as far as horror movie plot beats go, but it had a great, tense atmosphere, and I liked the performances. And ngl, I could absolutely see people fucking with something like that and filming it for TikTok or whatever irl, lol.

I left a little underwhelmed bc of all the hype, but the more I thought about it, the more I liked it. And it definitely gave me some trouble sleeping! I was stuck in a bit of a rut where every time I started falling asleep, I'd start dreaming about the room [Spoiler (click to open)]turning black and only being able to see someone lit by a candle and then my mind would start to zoom in toward the person, then I'd wake up startled... repeated that several times. I had to close my eyes at several scenes because I am a wimp, but jesus, the foley noises really had you right there with them even if you weren't watching. It was an interesting strategy to go so hard on every sound

The sound design in Talk to Me was so interesting. Even the little things like getting hit with a pillow was like WHOMP. I'm glad I saw it in theaters for that reason alone tbh.

i finally checked out polite society after meaning to for weeks and also got to they cloned tyrone , which was a surprise double feature about [Spoiler (click to open)]cloning lmao. wasn’t expecting that twist in polite society but i had a good time.

i’m housesitting and dogsitting this weekend. there’s a better tv setup here than i have at home, so i’m lowkey planning to take advantage of that and get to more movies that have been on my to watch list for ages lol
