Very interesting take, that is not what I took from the bear conversation. But I am thinking about it now and I like that it can be interpreted that way as well.
I thought the woman told the story of her brother who survived an encounter with Johnny, believing that he was attacked by a bear. Only a few people inside that logging park area seem to know and keep the secret, so the bear story sounded like a way to cover up that park's secret. Another reason why I didn't think that is the innovative ways that he killed his victims, but in the bear theory you suggest can mean that those are embellished in the way they are told.
Mine does seem like the simple view (if you buy the "he can not be killed" aspect). But this interpretation is making me like the movie a bit more, because it's making me double-guess the straightforward narrative.
The abuse by the father and the mother's enabling of it was the key plot point, yes. The comment she made about giving her son an enema before bed, that's what I was referring to.
I meant that, the way the household goes about their daily routines while the unspeakable was happening behind the wall - there was an eerie horror about it. It has been a while so I can't remember exactly what they were doing, but for example imagine doing dishes and laundry and just going about your household work while you know what is happening next door. That unsettling tone persists through the film. At the same time, I felt like I had seen this before. It's always horrifying, even when not a new idea.
Yes, that all seems right. I was confused by the tone of the film a bit. maybe I was distracted while watching, your summary makes it more clear and validates this.
I really thought it was great too, so what are your number 1 and 2 ?
this board unfortunately is mostly trolls, this was a good movie for grown-ups who have brains
yeah, good call. I haven't seen the latest season but it is in line with Black Mirror.
Glad to hear. Thanks for the suggestion but I don't really like MCU films, except maybe the Galaxy ones. Not sure if you achieved your objective with this comment.
I watched Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes today. It was really fun, more than this, I agree. Thanks for the recommendation.
I am going to check that one out, thanks
I think the ending was Rock-a-Bye Baby
Yes I agree, it was more effective to leave the baby unseen - to be imagined by the viewer. It's what made me wish I could see it, but it was a better choice to leave it as they did.
When they accused her of having sex, it was a pretext to force her into an examination with Dr Gallo. During that, they would have inseminated her.
I've watched from the beginning. They do show some angry reactions. I have seen some where it gets pretty heated, and the joker has to kind of scurry off for safety (I remember Murr doing this). In some cases they show the subject of the prank after they reveal the joke, and they are relieved and laugh along with the jokers, but you can see there is still a bit of the anger - but evaporating away.
I still have not watched either one. I guess part V is the one to see first, if they are worth seeing. Are they both comedy/parody type slasher throwbacks? I like nostalgic horror comedies, but these look kinda low production value.
I saw this film today and I am right there with you. I loved this.
If you have not already seen it, "The Worst Person In The World" is another Norwegian movie that this reminded me of. It is more drama than comedy but has some similar elements.
I found out after seeing this that the same director made Dream Scenario. And another one called Drib that I just put on my watch list.
I posted about this too, what is she going to do after she visits that bar?
There is a scene where she was talking to her dad. Before he was 'saved' and became involved with the church, he was a musician in a band. He told her they used to play at that place Arlene's in Memphis.
