Fake Bacon

The ironic moments make this film what it is. From Adam Driver imitating You Tube's "No No Cat" to Chole Fineman flubbing a line and starting over (not in an endearing way) to the final moment of the film in which a baby head-butts Giancarlo Esposito at his second to last line. The ultimate irony, however, was when two off the five people in the audience walked-out right at the moment when somebody was supposed to walk in and talk to the screen.

Warning, man pulls his own tooth out on camera.

While there's something to be said for slowing things down from fast paced editing, there is no justification for using ten-minutes of screen time to wipe up bottles. And though the director argues that the cat was "well-rehearsed" it certainly doesn't appear that way and cause several audience members to flee, including myself.

A woman really wanted a doll and then she gets one.

When an extended dish-washing scene is closely followed by an extended teeth-brushing scene, and the height of action is a donkey tied to a porch, you know you're being punished.

A woman who rallies against the killing of pheasants takes her kids out for KFC.

This is quite the masterpiece.

Oh boy...all I can say about this is thank God Karen Gillan is good-looking

In 2003 on the Ebert and Roeper show, Richard Roeper was praising Jessica Biel in her jeans in that time's version of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but nothing beats the low-angle shot of Sarah Yarkin climbing over a banister in the 2022 version!

This is a well made, suspenseful film with great cinematography and acting. My issue however is with the critics and the reviews touting the most disgusting end scene ever committed to film. After reading some of the headlines on Rotten Tomatoes and being overly curious, I rented the film and gave it a go. YES, the ending is disgusting and made me feel sick and forced me to legally ingest an edible, but to be honest, I started feeling sick during the lead up to the scene. The anticipation of what could POSSIBLY be so disgusting made me disgusted earlier than necessary. My wonder now is if I would have been as disgusted as I was if the review headlines hadn't trumpeted these final moments. I am leaning towards no--that I would have seen the scene, been grossed out a bit, and then moved on to the next thing. Now here I am, completely nauseous on a work night a few days before Christmas. Thanks, thanks a lot!
