"Morgan, after you were born, the doctor gave you to your mother. When she first looked at you, you just stared right back. You both just stared at each other for longest time, and you didn't even cry."
Faith as horror. Family in the process of rebuilding. Suspense within silences. Terrifying and beautiful in a way I can't quite describe, mainly because of its unrelenting confidence. I wish I could replace every new theatrically released christian movie with this.
every time joaquin was on screen my mum softly gasped and whispered “joaquin...” which first of all is a big mood and second of all made the movie way more dramatic than it actually was because it was uhhhh. boring
Men only have two moods:
1. "Aaahhhhh, I am insane with anger!!!"
and
2. "We're gonna beat your ass, bitch!!" 😠
"[it] felt wrong not to swing"
chaos and tragedy are inevitable, it's our choice to act, believe and love in the face of it anyway that defines us

"Looks a little like our house doesn't it?"
Baptism by water. A uniquely traumatic drama anchored by comedy and familial disruption. As scary as it is amusing and overflowing with tears.
"One time, I was at this party... and I was sitting on the couch with Amanda McKinney. She was just sitting there, looking beautiful. So, I lean in to kiss her, and I realize I have gum in my mouth. So, I turn to spit it out and put it in a paper cup. I turn back, and Amanda McKinney throws up all over herself. I knew the moment it happened, it was a miracle. I could have been kissing her when she threw up. It would have scarred me for life. I may never have recovered."
peak Shyamalan, really--this film is well-acted and touching and lovely, there's not one line of dialogue that feels remotely natural, and the ending is goofy as shit
(discussed on this episode of Blank Check!)
my two brain cells couldn’t stop thinking about that dancing alien meme the whole time wtff
"I can't hear my children."
maybe God would try to make himself known to a creation He felt truly disconnected from, just like any father would want to assure his family of his protection. on the other hand, does our vulnerability due to lack of spiritual connection mean anything in the first place if the attack we're vulnerable to is just part of God's plan? put another way, it might not be the best idea to attack a planet made mostly of water just because you hate water.
