Hot take i know

Haven't seen it and I know you wrong

Its pretty great

Need to see directors cut of midsommar

ill check it out

If you got Netflix its on there

I have seen it and you're wrong

Midsommar was a chore

Had a climatic moment spoiled before watching it too

the 2nd half of midsommar was mid no sommar so i wouldn't doubt it

Yes

Its a decent film but unravels after the midpoint

In a way they both basically peak early while the mystery is building

I havent seen the apostle but this perfectly describes midsommar imo

Yeah. Its super common in horror films tbf. Once the suspense and mystery is out there its all too easy to devolve into slasher territory

For the record tho I think Midsommar suffers less from this than Apostle and is the superior film

Is the directors cut superior?

Idk i found Apostle more enjoyable

Pretty predictable ending tho yes

if you are looking for something with a similar feeling as the original i recommend Wake In Fright (1971). starts off the same way, outsider enters a strange community and goes from there. its on prime rn (didnt even realize until i checked just now so im gonna rewatch today lol)

Good stuff thanks

Aint seen it but heard its better, makes the film a bit more cohesive
