A viscerally violent dance!
Best horror movie of 2018. And that’s including Mandy. The original is visually wonderful with its technicolor magic. But it’s thin plot (which later the trilogy delves more into) had so much more there to tear into. The remake does that and more creating its own fresh film. The gore and violence is more than over the top with an art house approach that just intensifies the experience. It’s meant to scare you and it should. These aren’t good people. This is about rituals. Ambiguous esoteric occultic rituals! And so much more!
