The German series The Last Word handles similar territory in a much better way, adding originality to the plot and less obvious, more engaging characters, and more interesting insights to loss and moving on.
It has lots of strange imagery, but the skeleton of the story is just Wicker Man in the same way that Hereditary was just Rosemary's Baby - although by way of Ken Russell, which makes it a bit silly, too. As with Hereditary, once it's over it feels shallow.
The pizza was crunchy but with ample topping. It looked delicious and sounded delicious and I've never seen any food in a film that I've wanted more because of the way it was portrayed on film. The movie itself was as shallow as it gets, but these guys could definitely have a promising career in making pizza commercials.
The first season doesn't beak any new ground in the horror genre, but it's a fun enough riff off The Shining taking place in an abandoned ski resort and pulling from aspects of Swedish racism to build its story. Has good atmosphere and a lively performance from Aliette Opheim. The second season is awful, though - a prequel to the first, of sorts, but so slow moving that nothing really happens at all, leading to a finale so anticlimactic that you barely notice it - there's not even enough to it to qualify as dumb fun.
Beautifully shot and well-acted, but shallow and irritating. The film depicts the love story but takes no time to tell you who the lovers are or why they do what they do. With them at arm's length, there's so little to grasp onto and as the finale unfolds, I just ended up rolling my eyes. There were several good movies that could have come out of this - one about gathering folk songs in rural Communist Poland, one about Polish expatriates in Paris, one about working in the Soviet music industry - none of these are the movie that was made, however, and any of those would have required more detail given to character to make it work. As it stands, this failed to make me care.
Extremely compelling documentary compiled almost entirely from YouTube clips, edited together with a deliberate skill and creating a narrative of Morgellons Disease in emotional terms, at first eliciting sympathy for these suffering women and then taking the viewer through the compulsive self-examination that begins to take place because of the disease, which eventually takes several paths, including conspiratorial ones. But the film is just as concerned with the modern network of communication forged by the sufferers of the disease, chronicling the feedback loop that escalates the emotional suffering through informational validation and examining the internet as one that divides people into their own private realities
Both are by Alex Pina, and both feature his insanely enjoyable over-the-top narratives AND awesome dynamo Alba Flores. The first two seasons of this show are self-contained story, following the imprisonment of Macarena (Maggie Civantos), and her transformation into a capable prison survivor. One part of the story follows a crazy caper outside the jail involving Macarena's family and stolen money, while the other focuses on the prison conflicts and is filled with some great characters and performances among the incarcerated, particularly Flores and Najwa Nimri as Zulema. The show also includes impromptu interview segments in a documentary format that provides some lighter moments with the characters as the story itself gets dark. The third season moves beyond the original premise and is just as enjoyable. The show is both lurid and touching at the same time, a whole lot of fun, and other than Prisoner of Cell Block H, easily the best women in prison show ever. UPDATE: I have now seen all four seasons, including the series finale. It is a lovely show about survival in the face of brutality, about keeping hold of yourself when a system is designed to strip you away from yourself. The finale ties everything together so wonderfully. A perfect TV show with great women in it.
