Powerful
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Blistering performances.
One of the most gripping, cohesive and sensuously dense shorts in the genre that I've seen in a very long time and a thrill from beginning to end. There really isn't a single misstep that would make you want to exit this magic realism roller coaster ride into Danielle K L Anathema's wonderfully twisted imagination. This is no cheesy ego trip by some new director who wants to toss around buckets of blood and badly made prosthetics with their friends but, instead, a very tight well paced exercise in cinematography and atmospheric story telling with production values that punch far above their weight class. Delivers on all counts in spades. If I was Trent Reznor I'd be reaching for the phone about now, and if I was Poppy Z Bite/Billy Martin I'd be thumbing through that(we hope) long neglected screen play for Exquisite Corpse and keeping an eye on this one. If that was the tasting menu, I look forward to deliciously deviant mains in the future.
