Proving to be quite the hit! $17m opening on a budget of $750k-$1m!

It’s got a crazy word of mouth and will likely continue to grow each week!

It’s soooo good!

Try and go into it blind!

Made by a YouTuber as well which I didnt like his first movie Milk & Serial which is free on Youtube but hoping I do this one. I've not seen it be given a bad review.

I can't stop thinking about this movie. It's fantastic and flips just about every trope imaginable on its head!

This is getting released only in a month in Germany 😭

Loved this, the trailer made this look slightly generic, but it was one of the most unsettling films of the year and still managed to get some humour in. The use of space, silence and sudden jumps was amazingly done and very impressive for a first time director to master a trope that's been so overdone. Brilliant performance from Inde Navarette as well that's surely made a name for her. The characters felt very authentic too which made it's toxic masculinity themes all the more resonant.

As someone who is quite squeamish when it comes to blood, gore, bodily harm etc, would I be looking away or watching through my fingers too much for this to be worth my time? I read the notes regarding the '18' classification on the BBFC website a few days ago and decided that it wouldn't be for me, but the glowing reviews keep on coming so it has me intrigued and I'm getting a bit of FOMO..

Trying to think of comparisons, the level of violence/gore in 'Sinners' was pretty fine for me for instance, but that was rated '15' and I find it easier to cope when it's clearly not real (like vampires, or the CGI animal in 'Send Help')

I didnt find it to be that gory but then I like the Terrifer movies so don't know if I'm the best person to go off.

Towards the end, it definitely ramps up the blood and gore but before then it's fairly light by it, a lot of the horror though comes from the tension built and the sense of real unease as things linger, as well as a few well timed jump scares, though it's great at weaving in comedy as well so accessible enough for non-horror fans, just be mindful you may be watching some of it through your fingers x

Absolute insanity! Thoroughly deserved.

In terms of gore I don’t think it’s as graphic as you’d probably fear the 18 rating would be, but the 18 is a deserved rating.
