Definitely loses some steam in the third act, but Toni Colllette had all the sauce(s) as the kids today would say.

Hollywood poking fun at itself is my new favorite genre. Wilder balances the meta nature of it all while also conveying a story that many in the entertainment world experience: fear of being left behind and falling out of relevance.

Equally captivating as it is frightening, Maika Monroe and Nicolas Cage lead us into the depths of darkness in an all-around great thriller.

Q/A after with Osgood Perkins and Maika Monroe. Lots of love for Nicolas Cage from the two of them! 

Print was pretty stellar. A few lines and dots. The grainy texture really added to the image invoking a sense of dread: almost as if you are rummaging through a collection of photographs bound to discover something upsetting.
