One of the most interesting things about this film is that it is not only well played by all performers involved, the settings and dialogue were fantastic....but the film lacked a better depth into the storyline. Even the special effects and the creativity of "recreating events" through a live confession was done perfectly. What I wish the story explained is....did this "demon" come full circle and absolve itself within Luz??...or did the demon specifically perpetuate itself through a series of victims? (wish it would have better explained that) I really look forward to watching other films by this director.
Huh?
This movie is so unique and beautifully shot. I love the soundtrack.
Great
A masterpiece of dizzying proportions. If the fact that “International/Foreign” Horror films have been exponentially superior to American Horror films for the last 20 years or so isn’t something you’re aware of – then check out, “Luz.” Then go watch Julia Ducournau’s “RAW” (2016), “Borgman” (2013), “Victoria” (2015), “Thelma” (2017), “Demon” (2015, directed by the late Marcia Wrona), Gaspar Noé’s, “CLIMAX” (2019), “Berbergian Sound Studio” (2012), and of course anything made by Ben Wheatley. “LUZ” probably won’t live up to your expectations or my high praise, but forget about all that and just watch it (WITHOUT LOOKING AT YOUR PHONE) and let its unreality unfold in front of you. What is “Luz” actually about? The only person capable of answering that question accurately is…you. If anyone claims they can summarize “Luz” to you or anyone else, they are lying liars that are telling a lie.
