I don't know the last time I've been hit so close to home by a movie.
Quick personal story- I lost a significant amount of my hearing when I was a kid, the doctor didn't know the cause but something neural, and then it came back to an extent though I still had loss in certain ranges. Flash forward to my mid-20s and I lost basically all of the hearing in one ear and a majority of speech recognition in…
Color me impressed. This sounded stupid, but turned out to be a very well done tech-centric horror wrought with atmosphere despite literally being a Zoom call under the free meeting time-constraints. Quick runtime (remember QuickTime?), convincing likable characters, and not as focused on the gimmick as I assumed it'd be.
Chances are this will go down as legitimate mid-corona isolation horror here in a few years when we're all dead and cockroaches are ruling the earth. The death throes of civilization looking for something other than reality to fear. Happy trails.
An ultra weird Christian film with finger-on-the-pulse paranoias of particularly Christian America. Drug lords recruit children under 10 to distribute drugs because of course they do. A little kid ODs on what must have been free cocaine because what kid has that kind of money. Fred Williamson fights a ninja, possibly in an alternate universe. For a while it's almost like an open mic night where anyone can step in and do their spiel. I'm half-convinced pressure point man just…
When I was a preteen I taped Mimic and Virus, the Jamie Lee Curtis one, off then SciFi onto VHS. It was one of my few go-to tapes, but the two became completely tangled and confused in my memory.

It's basically a Japanese Harry Potter. With Satanic rituals. And voodoo. And nudity. And beheadings. And gore. And lesbians.
It is so rare to find a movie that's so good it hurts. Especially in dramas or comedy. And even more so when it has a four hour runtime. That combo is basically impossible. Love Exposure is the impossible.
