The Killing Of A Sacred Deer (Yórgos Lánthimos, October 27,2017) Movie • Page 3

This is only playing at one theater near me and it's always at some time that I can't make. I really hope it keeps playing for another couple of weeks so I'll get a chance to catch it.

 

I never heard of A24 but yeah I like a lot of those movies

 

I’m pretty sure I loved this and it’s certainly my favorite Lanthimos film that I’ve seen. I’ve enjoyed his stuff but I think this is the first I’ve loved through and through. Possibly the second best movie I’ve seen this year next to A Ghost Story, though, I admittedly haven’t seen a whole lot.

 

I was supposed to see this today but a car accident got in the way of all that. but I will be watching it tomorrow, god willing.

 

Did you hit a deer?

 

no, an old lady rear ended me

 

Sorry to hear that man, hopefully insurance will cover that cause she rear ended you, yeah?

 

yeah, her insurance is gonna pay for it

 

this is the first of his that I've seen, I meant to see The Lobster but it never played by me and I haven't seen it yet, I will someday
I can't believe Alicia Silverstone played the mom of a 16 year old boy
but yeah this was very fun/funny considering the subject matter and this is Nicole Kidman's year we're just living in it

 

Anybody else get Kubrickian vibes from this? The abrasive score in conjunction with some of the foreboding cinematography reminded of of The Shining at parts.

 

Anytime someone walked down a hallway

 

Yeah, Kubrick vibes abound in this thing. He really tried to mirror Kubrick’s insane precision. I actually think that plays a role in why I don’t totally love this though. I feel like his previous films had more of his own distinct style.

 

Yep, loved this.

 

I loved this too

 

Great movie.

 

this was an interesting, good, and unnerving experience haha.

thought this was a good write up What Makes ‘The Killing of a Sacred Deer’ So Hard to Watch

 

holy fuck

I laughed a lot and I am deeply unnerved. Despite this being called the Lathimos "horror" movie it was way creepier than I was expecting

Absolutely loved it

 

This was deeply unsettling and I'm not sure how I feel about it quite yet

 

Finally watched this bad boy tonight. I was uncomfortable and fidgety the whole time. Everything about it filled me with anxiety. Dark and disturbing. I don't know what to think about it.

Shit's fucked.

 

I dont know if I ever posted in this thread but this was easily top 5 of the (last) year for me. Been craving a rewatch

 

Oh yeah, the score for this was so obtrusive and effective. Very good.

 

Double-featured The Lobster and this yesterday. Incredibly unnerving.

 

This is on netflix now and so I went on Wikipedia for 2 seconds and saw "A24" and "psychological thriller" and was like great I'm in, of course not knowing that the first 45 minutes of the movie would be the most torturous of my life

 

It’s a slow burn but there’s enough great acting and cinematography to make it interesting.

 

oh it was interesting alright
