I love that one too. It’s based on an excellent Richard Yates novel. His other novels didn’t hook me nearly like this one, but if you’re also a reader, your tastes would be well served by his short stories.

I’m jealous if you got Anatomy of a Fall at a local AMC. Totally bypassed all the AMCs here, and it looks like I’ll just have to wait months for a Hulu drop.
Yeah my local theater is in the middle of the city with a ton of screens so we get everything, throwbacks, foreign films, etc.

So excited for The Omen on Rewatchables. I grew up with that movie, and the sequels.
That’s what she said!
By she, I mean literally everyone who agreed to be in the movie.
+1 on all the “Barbarian” recs.

Also pretty hyped for They follow, although I recently watched Under the silver lake by this director which it was a pretty big letdown.
The general idea of “channeling Hitchcock/Altman/Carpenter/Lynch but make it a dumb conspiracy theory for the times we live in” seems like it could work in theory but I just never managed to get into it. Part of it is that Andrew Garfield just isn’t good enough (in that part at least).

A desperate person breaks into a rich person’s house and discovers the place has been so thoroughly booby trapped, he may not get out alive.
This one put me so far on the edge of my seat that I had to turn it off. Torture porn with just enough depth to not feel pointless.
The folks behind this originally wrote it as a prequel to Saw, explaining the origins of Jigsaw. Though the script was eventually reworked to be an original story, it plays just as well as the prequel to Saw, especially if seen with the sequel The Collection.
Across the Spider-Verse dropped on Netflix

Which ones sent your lawnmower into orbit?
Anything that says something like “TRAILER. STARTS. NOW.”
Yeah, no shit, just cut this part out and start the fucking trailer when I click play.
It’s like, “I heard you like spoilers with your spoilers so I put spoilers in your spoilers.”

Ohhhhhh hahaha now I can see what you mean. The trailers with teasers at the start. And usually I think those are great trailers…followed by trailers that tell you the whole plot of the movie. Booooo.
Same here, those are annoying as hell.
I’m team no trailer watching, don’t need all the best parts of a movie thrown in my face before I see it.
You wouldn’t expect it because the movie was a lot less perfect, but this has always struck me as the perfect trailer. Just construct them all like this, please.
