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

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.

I actually really enjoy absurd dark comedy, so this film really does it for me. I can see why the reviews are polarised, because I think you'd either love, or hate just how absurd, and dark it actually is. But on the upside I think you'd know pretty quickly into the film if you are going to enjoy it or not. Since it starts from the word go.

I don't think it's as good as the directors other films, but it's still extremely enjoyable. And weird. But I really loved the weirdness to it.

This is a visionary comedy. Wish there were more comedies with a specific voice and absurd/deep quality? ...This movie is for you. If nothing else, look at the incredible cast. Vivieno Caldinelli's masterful direction of this weird and wonderful story is not to be missed. Buy/rent now! Can't wait to see what he does next.

I absolutely loved this movie! People who rate this movie poorly are no doubt boring and devoid of any real joy in life. They say things like, "Egh, a rainbow, I hate when water diffuses light." or "I don't like Apocalypse Now. Too many helicopters." or "Now look, I take Frisbee Golf VERY seriously!" This movie is a good time!

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.
