I love horror movies but....

Rating: 5/10 (3 November 2019)

This movie is a lot of contradictions to me. The scenes and videography were absolutely breathtaking, but the story barely made sense. I don't know much anthro but I feel like Sweden is not the best place for a hedonist cult....but I get the feeling they needed it to be blonde haired blue eyed people. The characters were shallow and Christian was THE WORST, and yet somehow even with the flaky script Florence Pugh did an amazing job. I felt weird after I watched it which I guess means it was better than I wanted to give it credit for because if something can illicit that kind of visceral response, it must have been compelling even if I want to resist that notion. Gratuitous violence in slow motion kind of turned my stomach. Almost predictable to the point of being offensive. I didn't even finish it.
