I just watched the film and thought it was fantastic. It was really dark and disturbing at times. The film kept me guessing at every turn and I haven't been this impressed with a modern film in a while.

If you haven't seen it yet I highly encourage you to check it out. Viewer discretion advised obviously.

Excellent movie!

The nonlinear style was actually done really well

Loved the use of color in certain scenes, really made them pop (fun fact, the actor Giovanni Ribisi was Director of Photography. Apparently he had a small role in the movie too but I don't recall it)

Willa Fitzgerald showed off huge acting range as The Lady. You know which scenes I'm talking about. Holy shit

Kyle Gallner didn't show off as much range but was totally convincing as The Demon

I hadn't seen either of them in anything before but I hope they get bigger projects after this. I think not having huge, well-known stars helped immerse me into the story though. In fact it was kind of jarring when Ed Begley Jr showed up because I actually recognized him in a movie full of people I had never seen before

The cast was excellent! I hadn't seen any of these actors before but I'll be sure to keep an eye out for any future film to feature them.
