Viewing Notes

I remember hearing a lot of horrible things about this flick after it played at Fantastic Fest, but then I heard some great things later. Since it was on Netflix I figured I’d watch. 

I liked it.

I can see what some people wouldn’t like, but it was interesting to me. Nice FX work, most of the time, and a great feverish story. Maybe some didn’t like the surrealist aspect taken by directors, the Soska Sisters, in their tale, but I appreciated it. I’ll have to check out more of their work.

Oh, and Katherine Isabelle. Stunning and awesome - as usual.
