Unintended irony in that it looks like socialist "paradises" of the 1950s

Rating: Null/10 (6 October 2019)

People writing that this is a "masterpiece" need to get out more often, or at least read a few great novels. This is a fairly entertaining well semi-horror/dark humor film with a mountain of mostly tolerable plot holes and a jumbled ending and message.
There is an element of social commentary. But there is an unintended irony as well. That the writer/director probably doesn't realize that anyone coming from a left wing statist culture will see all the evils of that type of society as much reflected as the right wing statist culture that the author has said he is warning about.
Anyone who has gown up in an authoritarian "socialist paradise" will recognize a dozen major elements. The emphasis on rural tradition, complete with autonomy de-emphasizing group dances, costume, the casting out of the elderly, the sacrifice of the individual for the greater good, the reliance on meaningless texts , etc are all central to socialist societies. I watched it with my dad, who came from Soviet satellite socialist Latvia and he said its core elments look like the were taken right our of the nightmare socialist paradise he grew up in
