kinda wish they didn't kill off danny and farkas so early although farkas death was the funniest part of the movie. felt like they were carrying the comedic heft early on.
Easily the funniest part of the movie for me, too. It felt like both instances were to subvert expectations, which they certainly did.
One of those movies where I'm shocked at the reaction and am honestly convinced that people who don't like this don't enjoy fun
I didn’t even realize this was out yet. Maybe it was just my part of town but I saw 0 marketing in LA for it
As far as horror comedy goes, I far prefer Companion or Y2K over the Monkey. The Monkey didn’t know what it wanted to be and should have just let into the absurdity of its premise instead of trying to be weirdly serious at times.
I like all three movies, but my defense of The Monkey is that it captures King's voice and tone better than almost any adaptation of his I can think of since 1408
This was fun enough. Hopefully Kyle gets another shot because there’s an interesting tone that peeked through that I hope he is able to execute just a bit better next time around
Watched this tonight at my friends and we both enjoyed it. Bummer they killed off one of the funniest characters so early on. Mooney & Durst were the best parts. Like said above it loses steam in the second half but for what it was it was a lot of fun but it could’ve definitely been more fun. Speaking of Kyle , he recently released an album of fun music. Check out this YouTube video where he sprinkles some of his music in between silly comedy parts.
Watched the other night, movie was fun enough. Also the pizza dude from stranger things killed me lmao
yeah this is on hbo right now and I didn’t realize Argyle was in it and him being a Fred Durst kid in 2000 was great. The white kid being pretentious about underground rap is great too lol
