when vera farmiga said im not your fucking mommy I felt that

au where esther and stuart little were in the same orphanage

closing out halloween with one of the most genuinely deranged modern horror films and a personal favourite. there's obviously a great history of horror about gaslighting and parental anxiety but this is the one that makes me the most viscerally queasy. for material like this the performances and craft alone are impressive (collet-serra brings some incredible cross-cutting and camera moves) but im most taken with how it just leans full-throttle into its nastiest, trashiest impulses including a never-ending onslaught of perverse child endangerment/violence setpieces that are so beyond poor taste i can't help but respect that they made it into the final movie and warner brothers agreed to release it.

I’M NOT YOUR FUCKING MOMMY

Love this movie! It’s campy, schlocky and genuinely well executed and the ending is just so batshit it works, interesting take on the whole evil kid trope. The twist just elevates the whole thing. Totally underappreciated

very good but frustrating to watch :)-

Starts out kind of slow and by-the-numbers, but once the girl goes nuts it's pretty much sustained freaky awesomeness. Very well made and solidly scary. Reminded me more than a little of The Hand That Rocks the Cradle.

Too many straight white sex scenes

definitely did not see that coming...

Esther é uma artista foda

When the mom slap straight on that bitch face, i literally felt the anger.
