Review: I really enjoyed this body horror movie. After the success of The Substance last year, it seems that so many body horror movies are getting green lit and distributed which I am all for.
This movie stars real life married couple Dave Franco and Allison Brie as a couple who move out to the country. They are on the brink of collapse and this new job opportunity for Brie’s character could be something that saves them.
After falling into a hole, weird things start happening to them.
The last ten minutes are pretty wild. I loved the contortionist work done in this movie. There is very obvious foreshadowing throughout the moving using a popular song from my childhood and I, somehow, didn’t pick up on it. But hey, that’s the point and how movies get away with that stuff.
This movie has a buildup that continuously gets stronger and more intense until all hell breaks loose.
I dug the ending. There are a few ways they could’ve gone and I liked this one.
