Seeing Renate on screen, in the front row, was more than worth it. Shes soooo fine omg
Aesthetically brilliant. Downright horrific. But it fails when it tries to give an explanation for the backroom dimension (and a really cliche one at that). Wouldve been much better if it tried to worldbuild less and just explore the horrific backrooms more. But that said, i found a lot of the actual horor sequences to be so brilliant. Id like to see a sequel to this if done right.
This was AMAZING. I honestly loved this so much more than Oldboy, I haven’t seen the handmaiden of much of his other work but this was truly a top 5 Kdrama for me. Watched it last Tuesday at the angelika w my bros Michael and Justin
Like a lot of Korean cinema, this is a brilliant deep dive into someone’s loss of humanity and questions what that even is in an inhumane society. Dark, but at the same time this…
FLAWLESS.
Watched at the film forum, which has my entire heart
