It's always hard to pinpoint a moment or a movement or a new era until you're looking in the rearview a bit but there is an UNDENIABLE new era of horror from a new generation of filmmakers that is taking shape quite literally right now. Like specifically this month. You feel it?
ALL OF A SUDDEN is one of the most beautiful, compassionate, and profoundly humane films I’ve ever seen. You can reform a system from within and perhaps extend its life, but the same cannot be said for people. We are all born knowing that one day our time here will end. All we can hope for is that, when that moment comes, we leave this world peacefully. And that’s exactly what this immense film is: peaceful. A soulful meditation on the human condition and celebration of nurses and caregivers unlike almost anything else, it captures our capacity to laugh, love, create, and care for one another as we all move toward the same inevitable fate. Virginie Efira and Tao Okamoto are both heartbreaking and heartwarming together, their special bond carrying so much weight with quiet elegance, found in the tiniest of moments. Another intellectual, deeply emotional, and masterfully written and directed work from a brilliant filmmaker, one that earns every second of its 196-minute runtime.
The sound design in OBSESSION. Yeah, god damn. There's one moment where A SHOWER HANDLE IS TURNED, off screen, and the sound combined with what that sound means made me damn near jump out of my seat. I implore you to see this movie big and Dolby loud as soon as you possibly can.
Jane Schoenbrun just brought an “insanely over-the-top” slasher to Cannes and the crowd LOST IT.
‘TEENAGE SEX & DEATH AT CAMP MIASMA’ reportedly scored a wild 6-minute standing ovation at Cannes. Horror fans might need to start paying attention right now.
