I’ll never forgive the Oscars for snubbing ‘Good Time’

sudshr47 August 17, 2018

There’s plenty to be concerned about when it comes to the 2019 Academy Awards. (For example, the recently announced “popular film” category.) That being said, I am personally still reeling from last season’s Oscar snub of Good Time.

You may not have heard of the gritty A24 crime drama, and that’s not really surprising. The film’s limited theatrical release and underwhelming box office left it swinging in the abyss of terrific but underseen indies.

Those who did see it, however, gave favorable reviews – it’s rocking a 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes – and the festival circuit recognized the film with a Palme d’Or nomination. Read more…

A24 Bo Burnham Entertainment Movies Screening

Eighth graders can finally see ‘Eighth Grade’ with rating-free screenings

sudshr47 August 6, 2018

A24 will screen Bo Burnham’s Eighth Grade free of charge across the U.S. on August 8 – and free of its constrictive R rating.

Until now, actual eighth graders couldn’t see the searingly raw and empathetic film about adolescence, but Wednesday’s screenings will make it accessible in all 50 states.

Eighth Grade‘s R rating won’t have jumped out at older moviegoers who don’t have to worry about that sort of thing, but it points to bigger problems with the Motion Picture Association of America and its archaic and often arbitrary rating systemEighth Grade earns its R because of a few errant f-bombs; sorry to say, MPAA, but that’s no more than most teens are used to hearing daily.

‘Sorry to Bother You’ creator explains the meaning behind its batsh*t twist ending

This article contains spoilers for the ending of Sorry to Bother You

Sorry to Bother You is one of the wildest rides in theaters this summer. The movie not only defies all genre convention, but seemingly reality itself.

Both an office-comedy about the soul-sucking nightmare of entry level desk jobs, and a reality-bending sci-fi horror depicting the uprising of a half-horse half-human hybrid species — it is designed to make you ask questions.

And the final act of the movie introduces the most WTF elements of all.

9 details you missed in the horrifying ‘Hereditary’

sudshr47 June 14, 2018

Warning: Major spoilers ahead for Hereditary.

Hereditary is the kind of film you need to sit with.

It’s not just that it has a lot of shocking twists, though it does, or that the scares linger in your psyche, though they do. It’s also that Hereditary is dense with details that only reveal themselves upon closer examination and careful thought… or at least a deep dive into an explainer like this one.

Here’s everything you missed in Hereditary.

1. Yes, King Paimon is real

And people really do worship him.

To be clear, Paimon is “real” in the sense that he was not invented by writer-director Ari Aster for this film. Whether you think he’s actually, literally real depends on whether you believe demons and spirits are real. For what it’s worth, mentions of Paimon go back centuries – he’s even included in the 17th century grimoire Lesser Key of Solomon. Read more…

A24 Entertainment Grief Hereditary Horror

The real horror of ‘Hereditary’ is its realistic portrait of a family in grief

sudshr47 June 11, 2018

This post contains spoilers for the ending of Hereditary.

At face value, Hereditary works as an elegant genre film about the occult. But on a subtextual level, even the most supernatural scenes in the film speak to the raw realities of being a family possessed by grief.

Director Ari Aster told Mashable that initially, he “described [Hereditary] not as a horror film, but as a family tragedy that looks into a nightmare — but in the way that life is a nightmare when disaster strikes. Especially in succession.”

Maybe the experience of family dysfunction and death is so monstrous that we can only face it through the lens of a genre that houses our greatest ghouls and demons. Because, as Aster said, “What happens to this family is inherently horrific, even if you strip away all the supernatural elements.” Read more…

The traumatic family horror of ‘Hereditary’ scarred me for life

sudshr47 June 7, 2018

Once in a blue moon, a horror film comes along that you cannot shake — that sinks its claws deeper into your flesh if you try.

Hereditary is one of them, leaving you with images that refuse to stay buried, and a general sense of hysteria usually reserved for family gatherings.

Watching Hereditary feels like a possession, or the existential realization that you’re becoming your mother. It inhabits you, hijacking your senses from the very first shot and maintaining that hold in every minute that follows. Most horror gives viewers the comfort of voyeuristic distance, but not this one. An unrelenting descent into trauma, it insists that you become part of the family as the tragic terror unfolds.
