Seven Stages to Achieve Eternal Bliss by Passing Through the Gateway Chosen by the Holy Storsh

This comedy is really quirky and fun. It makes cult suicides actually entertaining to watch, which is quite a feat. The characters are likable, and I enjoyed watching the film.

Building off the fantastically outlandish premise of a suicide cult occupying the apartment of a normal couple, before taking things to illogical extremes. This setup invites a revolving door of beloved b-list comedians who show up for one-act performances, to varying degrees of craziness.

If the overblown title didn't already give it away, the film has no interest in being understated. The plot opts to follow a zany zig zag rather than make any attempt at coherent realism, so if you like your comedy grounded, this may not be for you. For the most part, the absurdism is amusing, taking things in some unexpected directions. Occasionally, it does come across a little awkwardly, with a couple of the non sequitur monologues overstaying their welcome.

Quirky to a fault, but still an enjoyable little black comedy if you can sustain a sense of humour about suicide.

This is one weird film. It is unconventional yet familiar. It was bizarre in more ways than one. Is this a comedy? Or is it horror? Is it satire? Philosophical?

I have no idea what I watched. Yet, it put a big smile on my face. And to this day, I still have no clue why.

Claire (Kate Micucci) and her boyfriend Paul (Sam Huntington) have a new apartment in L. A. She is struggling to come up with advertising ideas in her new job. Out of the blue, a cultist breaks into their home to commit suicide in their bathtub. Apparently, that happens a lot in that place. It is the cult of Storsh (Taika Waititi). Claire starts to take an interest in the cult teachings.

This is a little weird and sarcastically goofy. This has some dark moments, but most of them are done with a wink and a smile. I have always liked the comedy skills of Micucci. The directing style could be a little better if it wants to be cinematic. In the end, I enjoyed this dark comedy.

Really enjoyed this. Watched this on a rainy, lonely day, and it gave me more laughs than I expected, and I'd say it made me feel better despite its dark, morbid undertones. Kate Micucci gave an incredible performance as the adorable and energetic heroine/anti-heroine Clare. The other actors also did a great job. I'd imagine from the look of this movie that it was very low budget, but the clever plot and good acting made it shine.
