  1. If you folks are interested in more Yorgos Lanthimos, I'd highly recommend Dogtooth - although fair warning, it is very weird and very, very gross ... Honestly though, one of the best Plato Allegory of the Cave / gaslighting representations I've ever seen on screen. #FrightClub #Bugonia #Dogtooth

  2. Bugonia: Not good.

    Unnecessary level of misogynistic violence, an ending with an unnecessary level of silliness, and a main male character that is pure toxic masculinity and sadistically cruel.

    Along with the ridiculous ending of #PoorThings (which should have stuck with the much better book ending), Yorgos may be too self-indulgent.

    I love #Dogtooth, but these two fail in overall story, for me.

    Still gonna try his previous work 🤞🏿

  7. I really enjoyed it, particularly the first half, but it loses a lot of energy as the second half goes on, especially after the brothel, and kinda slumps into the ending, it's energy depleted.

    #PoorThings is good, but nowhere near as utterly unique and surrealistic as #Dogtooth, in terms of story.

    Well worth watching though, just temper expectations and understand most of the most fun bits are in the trailers, unfortunately.

  8. #Dogtooth, #2009, is the most bizarre and disturbing #movie I've seen in a long time.

    It's played light but from the start there's a psychological violence that's shown to have physical and sexual components as well.

    Nothing is normal in this family's life but it's all treated as if it's not just normal, but ideal.

    Unsettling and unnerving in every scene, not even the ending gives relief, just more dread.

    Technically it's not #horror, but it's horrifying.
