The Dead Don't Die 2019

★★ Watched 12 Jun 2019

The Dead Don't Die centers on a zombie apocalypse as experienced within a small town, very much akin to classic zombie movies like Night of the Living Dead. Much like the zombies within the film, though, The Dead Don’t Die is a slow and dreadful movie, and not even the cast can piece it back together.

The Bloodhound 2020

★★★ Watched 30 Dec 2020

This seems to be a pretty big hidden gem of this year that not a lot of people have seen despite it being quite short at a little over an hour long. Comparisons can be made to last years The Lighthouse, and the overall visual terror Eggers employs, or even stylings akin to Yorgos Lanthimos' work.

Jørgen Leth is bringing these mundane tasks of these humans to our attention by saying they are perfect. These people aren't perfect, though, and throughout the film we can visibly see them slightly messing up in imperfect ways (like accidentally moving the plate slightly when serving food, or not cutting the nails properly). So this asks the question of why the narrator is telling us these people are perfect?
For one, it could be that we are all perfect, and…
The Neighbors' Window 2019

★ Watched 02 Feb 2020

This feels like an insult to my intelligence as a viewer and to my emotions at a whole. It is so painfully obvious what this short is trying to tell you because of how violently it thrusts it's message onto the screen- the message being sometimes one upper middle class white family isn't better than another upper middle class family despite how it might seem on the outside. At the same time, though, it really has nothing to do with…
