I'll watch it later tonight and won't visit this until I do so, but I'm curious as to your opinion.

This will unintentionally be the 3rd A24 studio movie I watch in a row (Uncut Gems, Good Night) which were both great.

It's a wild ride, but it's great, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

You should also check out The Witch, same director as The Lighthouse.

This reminded me that I want a loosely related movie that's like Bioshock Infinite

I loved it. Even more than The Witch, which I really liked.

Kind of want to watch it again, actually.

It's great, I keep thinking about rewatching it and I only saw it this year.

It's hard not to think that the two characters desperately wanted to fuck each other.

I loved it, but it's not going to be to everyone's taste.

Great movie. Willem Dafoe should have gotten an Oscar nom tbh. Wasn't a huge fan of the aspect ratio but I get it.

It was my favorite movie of the year. I saw it in an old theater in downtown Fargo and I was literally the only person there watching it. Felt perfect for the isolation vibes of the movie.

I haven't seen The Witch, but I also don't really like horror movies usually. Is it only a little horror-esque like The Lighthouse? Or is it more of a full horror film?

Usually the only horror movies I like are slashers cause they are funny. And they are like superhero movies in reverse.

The VVitch is pretty horror but its also like a ...period piece, which is what I liked about it. The historicity of it.

Did he get one for Boondock Saints?

The movie greatly reminded me of 1928's The Passion of Joan of Arc, which makes sense because the director is a fan of that film and the rest of the director's works. Here's a clip.
