These girls did not f*** with the psychological aspect of this at all. They just wanted some upfront dumbass jump scares.
Unfortunately that’s what most general audiences want from horror movies.
If a horror film doesn’t have a bunch of jump scares, people will usually say “man that s*** wasn’t even scary”
Psychological horror is wayyyy better imo though. I don’t need jump scares , I want the movie to get under my skin

also I saw a review saying there's no way Harker's character would've passed the test to become an FBI agent and I have to agree. Good intuition or not she had terrible people skills and her mental health was questionable at best

Jump scares are predictable and easy. I want to be genuinely freaked out

yeah but she was a savant, she didnt just have good intuition it was like phenomenally good, so it makes sense as a movie trope

I always get mindblown when a slightly “artsy” movie makes its way in front of mainstream audiences, and the average moviegoer just can’t connect with it in any way.
I remember taking a couple friends to see Everything Everywhere All At Once, and they both walked out of the theater like “that was the worst movie ever I don’t get it.” They couldn’t articulate any critiques, the movie just simply didn’t compute for them. Had a similar experience taking a friend to see The Northman.
I just can’t picture sitting through a 2 hour movie and walking out having taken absolutely nothing from it, but I guess we all just take in art differently lol.

Jul 15, 2024I didn’t know anything about this movie going into it. I was expecting something along The Silence of the Lambs. I didn’t expect all of the religious horror/supernatural elements. I liked this a lot. I have a feeling it will get better with rewatches. It feels like one of those movies that you can pick apart frame by frame.
