?The Lodge? Looks Like 2020?s First Must-See Horror Movie In The New Trailer

Saw this at Beyondfest. It's very deserving of the brand HAMMER. Horror in the more gothic sense of the word. VERY clever and has quite a gut punch at the end. Go See It!!!!

and check out Goodnight Mommy from the same team. Equally foreign and melancholic.

For a minute there, I thought it was Goodnight Mummy, with, well, an actual Mummy.

But alas. But it does look good. :good:

Saw this yesterday. Was curious after reading all the hoopla about it's F on cinemascore.
I will tell you, the ending is purposefully ambiguous. That is the ONLY reason for the score. It's a perfectly fine movie...but not if you need to be spoonfed a finite answer to all your questions. I had a very clear idea of what I felt had transpired. Could it have been better supported by some editing/story choices? Yes! But it's well acted, and a very professional looking film. I can't help but feel there might have been some studio interference, or, perhaps there should have been. If you have an open mind...you could certainly do worse.

I am a big fan of the source materials, but golly, those reviews. It seems to be a hard thing to adapt considering how many movies have tried and done it badly.

I think I'll wait for the Netflix adaptation. I trust Mike Flanagan. ;)

No ambiguity for me. I always assume the spooks are not real, well, at least half of the time. mhihi: ;) :wine: :ghost:
