What do you think of this?

I think it was pretty great. Sure the cinematography is better than the story itself.

The skank has that nose I like.

It was enjoyable. Watched it last night. It could have been shortened a bit but the ride was interesting enough that I didn't mind.

I kept hearing reviewers mention Lovecraftian elements but I'm a big fan and couldn't really see what elements they were talking about. Young guy gets caught up in something over his head maybe? That isn't really Lovecraftian though.

Nah, it wasn't Lovecraftian. People these days see Lovecraft in everywhere, it was more like Polansky with a classic gothic tale underneath, which I think it's an odd mixture but interesting. Also the cinematography in this movie is GOAT.

Bump.

Apparently there wasn't enough meme material for Sup Forums to talk about a good film.

well there was certainly enough incest and rape for Sup Forums to like it

It desperately needs a recut. It's much too long, and and entire portions could be cut without affecting the story. Overall, it's got some really amazing scenes and choreography, but it's terribly imperfect.

What was the deal with the people that worked for the Doc? Were they all taking the blue shit too? Were they like the old nobility or something?

One neat thing I noticed but it didn't dawn on me until later. The police dude in the village had a lot of WW1 memorabilia hinting at how old he was. Nice touch.

Hannah's modestly-sized boobies with the little pink nipples are l i t e r a l l y perfect

it was ok, the ending was retarded

>it was more like Polansky
is that because there's underage rape in the movie?

Parts of it dragged but I think that was some of its charm. If people expect every film to be 1.5-2 hours it'll just limit creativity and force filmmakers to opt for instant gratification and shitty development.

Kek.

How did he get his teeth back?

you could also call it a woody allen type movie since it's his daughter

...

I generally prefer longer films, but you have to justify it, and this movie didn't. Cut the entire bit between his being captured with the police and hooked up to the machines and what do you lose outside of a completely incomprehensible scene where the patients act like zombies for no reason? There are a lots of little things, too, that could be cut just to make the film tighter. A film can be ponderous and slow, but should never feel like it's dragging.

>It could have been shortened
Defintely. It was a good film but after 30 minutes you already know whats gonna happen. It's 2 and a half hours long ffs. The last hour seemed to drag like fuck.

Lovecraftian has become a buzzword used by people who've never read any of his works.

Mostly because it backtracks like a motherfucker. We basically got the big reveal twice, and it felt stupid as fuck the second time around.

just watched it. wanted to make some cool webms

it wasn't as good as the first trailer implyied, but wasnt as bad as the ratings/critics said.
it was pretty good.

autustfu is i think Sup Forumswaifu tier
Hannah>Elleneon demon

Fuck knows. How did he and the old guy die in the water tanks but not die?

>underage

literally the oldest woman in the world

I think it just means fish-related to them

it just seems to me like the film execs watched the first reveal and said it wasn't obvious enough

Wow man!!

Way too long for the story it tried to deliver. Good cinematography, below average plot. I expected to get kino because of the trailers, and received a mediocre asylum horror with nice visuals.

So the baron was stealing peoples' faces because his was all grody? Why wasn't Hannah's face grody?

it has lots of that thou.
autistfu, incest/pedoshit, drill in front teeth, eels in bath, eels deepthroated, horror face

It's shocking to me that anyone could have misunderstood the plot this badly after how long the film spent telling you exactly what was happening. I guess execs are right, audiences really are this stupid.

>drill in front teeth
I couldn't watch this part

What have I misunderstood?

boring as shit

Nice feets! Looks like she's taken, though.

Too bad. The guy looks like a real asshole.

I could beat Shia in a fight if it came to it

Unless he summoned arcane hobo strength

i liked how they used the tiddy shots
it felt very organic it's not like this big epic moment, it just happens

would've been better with vampire desu

You'd win and then hear cackling as he reveals you were merely fighting his golem

It's basically vampires though. Dude living an extended life by drinking fluids from peoples' bodies.

>What do you think of this?

I enjoyed it quite a bit and was happy to see an original film.

The biggest negative I have is it was too long and drawn out

He'd literally kill you.

It is probably one of the most visually stunning big blockbuster movies since XXL or Fury Road. Not as good as either of those but it's good enough and the images are gorgeous.

It was real nice desu.

Beautiful kino, nice atmosphere. Dane Dehaan is a legit good actor.

It fel like a modern day costume drama. Jason Isaacs was good.

nah bro I stack DEX

>Jason Isaacs
When is it he not?

>Kill me before the war's over will you!

The scene when he looked at the only black guy in the room after being threatened with a 12" black dick was pure kino.

Also, I figured out one twist just after the main guy examined the locket and the second when the girl had her period.

RIP w126

Is it even a blockbuster though? I'd never even heard of it until the bluray came out.

I would say so. It's a Verbinski movie and it received a wide release plus it was fairly heavily advertised.

By blockbuster I mostly mean something that appeared in basically every multiplex, I don't mean a studio tentpole like Wonder Women or something. It is very rare that a movie as strange and artistic as Cure for Wellness gets such a wide release these days. I'm really glad I got to see it in a theater the one week that it stayed in my city. It bombed pretty hard.

>Is it even a blockbuster though?
Depends what you compare it to. Capeshit or movies made to draw in huge audiences that can make or break a studio? No. Psychological horror films? Kinda. Only budgeted 40m compared to something similar Shutter Island at 80m but that had Leo in it. I'd say for it's genre it's a decent budget but I'd not call it a blockbuster.

What you've said is reasonable but read my above post for why I used the term "blockbuster." Especially since this movie is directed by a guy who traffics in blockbusters, ie. the POTC trilogy.

>one twist
They weren't twists. They were obvious cues.

The movie literally tells you what's going to happen in the first 30 minutes.

I think we are just defining blockbuster differently, I did read it and you're not wrong.

You're right. Twist is not the right word.

So, were they Lamprey or what?

Also
>titties and masturbation

I think studio movie is a more accurate term

I was entertained and thoroughly creeped out, but yeah it was a little long and incoherent.

I loved the atmosphere. The ramping up to progressively creepier and weirder shit felt natural and earned.

Could have worked with more character shit though.

I enjoyed it, but the end kinda was "meh".

they were eels moron

wtf Sup Forums is actually discussing a movie?

The capebabbies forgot to see enough of this one to shitpost

Lampreys are eels fuckwad

see sometimes they look like eels other times they look like lamprey. The pages in the basement look like eel but the ones around period water looked like lamprey.

not him but lamprey are not eels.
stfu or they'll catch on

Eel is a fish. Lamprey is a slug.

One doesn't even fucking swim.

Also the cunnybot and pol threads got btfo, so we have nothing else to argue over.

Sup Forums is back bitches!

More like A CUM for Wellness

no this is wrong too, lamprey are fish and they do swim.

Anyway I'm now convinced they were eels but some of the CGI guys I think didn't get the message.

Stop trolling

We're arguing over Big Black Eel.

>Hannah's actress is 23 years old but is playing a prepubescent girl
I hate it when they do this

>born during the revolt
>prepubescent
???

So what was it that triggered her period? The action and excitement of the village bit or the water or what? That part kinda left too much ambiguity.

Dehaan, probably. He awakened her latent sexuality

>THIS

This movie suffers from meme cinematography

dude looks weird af though. Nevermind so does she.
No it doesn't. Stop trying to cause shit.

DUDE BBC LMAO
Instantly ruined it for me
Watched it with my fucking parents too

this thread appreciates your effort to bump. Next time just say "bump" or actually watch the film and bring up anything from it that is not "vomit/pol/"

...

...

...

40m budget, only 1 well known actor. With Cine like this, I'd pay more.

bump. Or did the capekids and pedo wake up?

it's decent, reminded me of Shutter Island, last arc really ruined the build-up for me the fucking boss fight at the end was stupid, video game tier.

I forgot about that

Lower budget stuff is always better, because you're allowed to actually do something with it. He wouldn't even have been allowed to smoke if this were a $150 million picture

you're expecting action movie endgame and mindless fun. You missed the point of the film if that's what you wanted.

>He wouldn't even have been allowed to smoke if this were a $150 million picture

Earlier in the thread we established this as either a high budget psychological/horror film or a blockbuster that didn't earn well.

The smoking in this film served a very important purpose. And no, it wasn't just because of the lighter.

>The smoking in this film served a very important purpose
Obviously, but they still wouldn't have let him do it if it were actually a blockbuster. Anything with a high enough budget must appeal to the lowest common denominator to earn its keep, and smoking is more of a taboo than sex these days.

you try so hard. let the adults talk plz

so you are arguing that a blockbuster film has smoking rules? It's not about financing, turnout, theatre numbers?

How is what I'm saying confusing you? Executives have unofficial rules they set based on those things, and one of those rules is smoking.

what made you come to the conclusion that i was looking for mindless fun? what i said was that the last part where the doc slowly walked up to the mc and started beating his ass and throwing him around was fucking stupid.

It's Dracula. It's a fucking retelling of Dracula. Which is a good concept, but ruined by stuffing too much dumb shit, even when it was 200 minutes long. Only thing this shit had going for it was it looked nice.

It was fine, enjoyable but ultimately the plot was a predictable mess. The ending felt so out of place though and the incest pedo fingering wasnt really needed to get the point across.

Aspects reminded me of the Lobster although probably just coincidental.

fuck i hate those piggy noses

I stopped watching it at "huge black dick in the ass"
