Curry Barker just created the most psychologically terrorizing experience to hit the screen. As an avid horror fan, not many films I have seen can I say truly scared me.
But this? This left me horribly, deeply, utterly disturbed.
An absolute master-class in horror, this film has got to be the best horror film I have ever witnessed to date. Yes, there are classics and visually and stylistically stunning masterpieces out there. But the pure, raw, deep terror this left…
This film means everything to me.
Sound of Metal is my story. I have never felt more understood.
If you read this, thank you. But the meaning of what I’m about to write, for myself, goes beyond recognition.
RATING: 10/10

TO FALL.
Almost 4 years ago, I had a major blackout concussion during a hardcore punk show. I hit my head once and did not realize, and I whipped my head around more which caused my brain to…
this is a white people movie bro
it's decently entertaining. overhyped tho.
I've been slacking in films recently, but Backrooms tomorrow night most likely & got a TON coming up in the roster.
LFG
Barker's debut feature brings forth another great example of his mastery in horror with commentary, and a glimpse into the artistic evolution leading to Obsession.
This is a great one. For a debut it's fantastic, and the layered commentary about the minds of prank YouTubers seeing how extreme they can go while not crossing the line is a great callout.
Fuck prank YouTubers.
You know what makes a good film? When you can feel entirely new emotions the second time around.
When you know what's coming, you can dive deeper into the underlying meaning and commentary behind Barkers masterpiece. There were levels of sadness and despair I felt for the characters that I didn't feel before because of the terror-pit it left in my stomach.
The performances also become more highlighted, as even when you KNOW what's coming, it is still deeply disturbing…
