Be part of the cinematic event that's sweeping the nation!
bumping this since i've only just remembered i said i'd watch it... sorry
the cinematography, sound design, and feel of the piece are really something. i was drawn into it. not sure about the asmr thing it had going on, but maybe it was subconsciously why i was so into the mood when paired with diegetic stuff
Chris Weitz has been directing films for almost 20 years, no?
Edit: in response to Nomis
true true although not all his films are good though
However, I thought this adaptation was lacking urgency and tension. It felt too much like a TV movie. Which might be found ironic, considering it's only on Netflix lol
What did you think of the film?
Feel free to check out my review of HalloGREEN where I break down the film politically -- Pro Second Amendment?, Michael gets #Metoo'd, Is feminism ruining our favorite franchises? Has Jamie Lee Curtis lost her marbles? Will this be considered the definitive sequel to Carpenters 1978 classic?
*Beware mild spoilers. May be best to read after having seen the film.
Pretty much 2/3 films a day non stop for the last 12 days. Outside of the fest: Halloween (1978 and 2018), 22 July, First Man: The IMAX Xenon Experience, Operation Finale, somehow managed to squeeze in Shame, The Childhood of a Leader and Bone Tomahawk at home too. (note - Don Quixote, Roma and The Favourite I saw before the fest)
