Ever taken your friends to see a horror movie and find you're horrified by your movie choice instead?

Rating: 4/10 (12 February 2020)

TLDR; This movie was pretty unsettling, Ari Aster has successfully spawned a film that was pretty difficult to enjoy, but isn't that the goal of a horror movie to begin with? The cinematography was some of the best I've seen all year, if anything rent it for that and plan a trip to Europe.
I hated the characters and all I could think about was how long it was taking for them to get wiped out. They were intensely unlikable, it was hard to empathize with the main character despite the focus on her poor relationship with her boyfriend and the effect that the obliteration of her entire family at the start of the film has on her from that point on. The other characters come off as obscenely stupid and petty as well, you just witness a gruesome double murder in the middle of nowhere and you fight with your best friend over your thesis topic? The intriguing weirdness of the cult and their rituals in this film were enough to keep me engaged until the end, but definitely a movie to see alone. I enjoy av av-ante garde
