  1. i didn't like Kinds of Kindness or Beau is Afraid but i find them very similar and i think ppl in here who like one tend to also like the other

    Yeah that was my point. Maybe I just wasn't in the right headspace when I saw KoK??
     
  6. I saw a review calling Kinda of Kindness "Yorgos' Treehouse of Horror" and that totally made it work for me

  8. directors of whom i've seen three or more films, ones i like in italics, ones i love in bold

    Ari Aster: Hereditary, Midsommar, Beau is Afraid
    Robert Eggers: The VVitch, The Lighthouse, The Northman, Nosferatu
    Mike Flanagan: Oculus, Hush, Before I Wake, Ouija: Origin of Evil, Gerald's Game, Doctor Sleep
    Alex Garland: Ex Machina, Annihilation, Men
    Leigh Janiak: Fear Street Trilogy
    Christopher Landon: HDD, HDD2U, Freaky
    Jordan Peele: Get Out, Us, Nope
    Osgood Perkins: The Blackcoat's Daughter, Longlegs, The Monkey
    Radio Silence: Ready or Not, Scream 5, Scream 6, Abigail
    Ti West: The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, X, Pearl, MaXXXine

    sometimes you see a movie and you're like, I'm gonna love everything this director makes! but then you don't. Garland is probably the biggest example of this, i hated Men and have zero interest in seeing Civil War and Warfare

    a lot of directors are two for two right now. Julia Ducournau, Jennifer Kent, Jane Schoenbrun. Parker Finn.
    pretty excited for the follow-ups to Barbarian, Talk to Me, and M3GAN this year.
    Dave Bruckner: I love The Night House and Hellraiser but haven't seen anything else
    Diablo Cody: not a director, but worth mentioning bc I absolutely love Jennifer's Body and Lisa Frankenstein
    David F. Sandberg: I like Lights Out and Until Dawn. I ain't watching Annabelle.
    Leigh Whannel: The Invisible Man and Wolf Man were okay, he's written way more than he's directed
    Adam Wingard: I love You're Next and The Guest but haven't seen anything else
    Edgar Wright: I need to rewatch the Cornetto Trilogy, haven't seen them in a while, but i love Last Night in Soho
