Dear Ari Aster: You Got Issues Man. Seek Help.

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2019)

I don't know where to start. Florence Pugh's performance at times made me feel as if 10,000 ants were having an ant independence day parade over my entire body.
The horrifying opening sequence, which features Dani (Florence Pugh) being talked down by her boyfriend as a hopeless worry bug, constantly concerned about her biopolar sister who sent her a very ominous e-mail and then stopped responding. Right before the reveal that her sister not only took her own life, but killed their parents as well. This is just the first five minutes. After that, it starts to get really dark.
This movie made me so uncomfortable so many times. At one point I started to notice some discomfort in my face and realized I hadn't blinked in at least five minutes. My eyes stuck wide open, glued to the humanistic horror unfolding onscreen.
All I really want to say is that Ari Aster belongs in a psych ward. He should still be allowed to make movies. And I will watch all of them. I just don't want the guy who wrote and directed this movie to be able to roam free in society. It's just not a good idea.
