Deadwax

What intrigued me about Deadwax is that there is something indisputably and accurately mid-to-late 1990s about it which is what they're going for; even though the story takes place in the present (2018) the backstory spans from 1987 to 1997. I also felt some David Lynch vibes with the way the dark characters are presented (particularly Lilly Child) and the audiovisual effects of the forbidden lacquer.

However I may have enjoyed it, the story didn't make much sense unless it's supposed to be a cautionary tale about obsessing over collecting or art until you fall down a rabbit hole you can't ever emerge from.

Solid effort in terms of style but a little flawed in substance, at least from my perspective. I can see there's a definite appeal to a certain kind of person, I'm just not that person I guess. YMMV.

In a day where we are inundated with elevated (boring melodramas) and social horror... This is fresh. Every episode is different but the hunt for the perfect vinyl that kills - what a wicked concept! I only hope more people watch this and love it as much as I did!

I recommend this movie to all of my audiophile friends. The sound design is so good and as a collector myself, I love that someone made a move about a record that can kill you! When you only have a moment in the day for something creepy, these short episodes really hit the spot!

I didn't expect much, but I love the short form delivery and audio centric storyline! When I need a quick horror fix I watch DeadWax.

Simply put its a brilliant piece of bizarre horror that appealed to the both the collector in me as well as the horror fan. It has a great moody soundtrack too. Under rated gem IMO

There needs to be more of this Shudder but I have a feeling it sadly hasnt reached an audience
