Horrible drama movie featuring about 29 seconds of monster time. Only watch if you want to see a depiction of man on man anal in the first twenty minutes or skip to an hour and 14 minutes in for the other good scene.
Didn't know what I was gonna see going in, but it's not as much of a monster flick as I was hoping for. Mostly just human drama with a monster tossed in. It's definitely arthouse though, enough to draw you in even if there's not exactly much going on. Worth a watch if you want some art on screen while you're messing with your phone
Great performances and beautiful camera work. The third act fizzles a little bit and I wish they had leaned into the concept more but otherwise great.

I don't understand why this film did not make the ban list. However, good and disgusting at the same time. The characters desire for this being included with their own desires for satisfaction is questionable. Is it the mind, body or spirit that drives these individuals. Even down to the so called professionals. Worth a watch.
