What did I think of this movie?
Pure shit
I came last night but you don’t see me making a movie about it
nothing new
dishonest
barely watchable
waste of time
pretty dope biblical allegories. great tension and setting. very sad. only reddit tier goldfish brained morons who thought it was gonna have their favorite 'le spoopy monster' say shit like
also that is the absolute worst poster especially compared to the god tier one they use for most of the prod
What was wrong with that black kid?
IT COMES ON YOUR MOM'S FACE
??? what do you mean?
he was a fucking excellent actor. really blew me away.
He comes across as autistic or at the very least super socially awkward with the way he interacts with Kim / their family
Agree about the actor though. Dude was amazing
puberty
lived crucial stages of his life completely devoid of interaction from anyone but his parents
socially awkward because it seems they've been living isolated for a while now, and he's young, like 15-17 in the movie. It makes sense for his character. I don't think he's autistic. just a horny teenage kid who is extremely lonely and is losing faith in the world he lives in. his dad isn't "his dad" but also seems like the dad he's known the most or longest.
he was very connected to his grandfather and the movie starts with his death.
Did they say he wasn't his real dad?
i figured it was implied since he wasn't mixed? unless we are supposed to believe joel motherfuckin edgarton has the weakest god damn genes in the world.
which btw, it really surprised me to have such a strong stoic and loving but realistic father figure in the movie. the way he treats the kid is so god damn REAL.
its a way better The Road movie than we got with the actual The Road movie.
A film deals with the paranoia of being affected by unwanted. Watch it multiple times to see if you can pick up a little things that director did to show the fear.
I figured it was a casting fluke. There's nothing said to imply the kid isn't really Joel Edgarton's. Definitely a great dad role, though. The family dynamics were great on all fronts, it was so engaging to watch the two families because you completely sympathized with both.
who opened the door?
Amazing, shame it had to be advertised as a horror movie for the 56% audience. It kept me from seeing it for quite a while.
The kid opened the door to go look for his dog
The movie scatters little clippings of him walking down the hallway and opening the door and it's meant to make it look like it's part of his nightmares but at the very end it becomes obvious it was actually real and he was the one that brought the sickness inside
The family pictures at the beginning where Joel Edgarton isn't in all of them and the dynamics between them made me think he was a stepdad but clearly pretty close to the family
I thought he came off as a huge asshole even before the finale but maybe that's the brainlet response and he was just being a good dad
the angel of death because they didn't observe passover.
It's a both-and-neither thing. He was being a good dad by caring intensely for his son and wife and actually attempting to nurture and support both rather than just be a tyrant. He was also being paranoid, cold, and thick-headed which exacerbated the situation. The situation was chaotic, dangerous, and tense enough that all his actions can be justified as being the best choices a caring husband and father could make and being the actions of a distrustful asshole.
Absolutely fantastic. I haven't seen a movie that tense in a long while.
he certainly wasn't a perfect dad and he might not have even been a 'good' dad but he clearly loved the boy and the mother and was trying his absolute best and rarely if ever acted out of his own personal self-interest. so essentially yeah he is a good dad but maybe not ideal and certainly cannot be weighed against modern/non shit-hit-the-fan state of life ideals.
they seal the deal on this when he and the mother decide to die with the boy and catch the illness.
why did he do it though? it didn't seem like he was doing it on purpose. i'll probably re-watch this sometime soon and see if i can catch anything i missed.
I still don't get how he brought it inside unless the dog went around eating corpses, they're constantly going outside and they don't get infected
Misleading title, trailer and marketing, but calling your movie "Everyone Gets Sad and Dies at the Dinner Table" was probably too on-the-nose.
Pappy got it, 56% and doggo got it after opening his bedroom door
Oh shieet, i was so busy trying to decipher 56%'s dreams that i didn't see it. I'm gonna have to see it again.
Did the black kid rape the wife or was it just his subconscious desire?
I don't think it's that misleading to market it as a horror movie desu
I agree the marketing was pretty deceiving but it's definitely a horror movie at its core. Even if it never really develops into anything the constant tension and looming fear is really super heavy
