Fine I'll Do It

Seeing the extreme lack of reviews (0) for this I shall do the honor of sharing my thoughts.

I went into this super blind. Did not even read the synopsis, and if you haven't yet, don't do it. Watch it right now.

Who is this for?
1) People who want something snappy to watch in less than 15 minutes
2) People who enjoy horror stories that start off happy-go-lucky
3) People who like Park Chan Wook or Bong Joon Ho

In general we don't get a lot of GL, and the GL we do get is often 50% surreal. This is not that, but it's also not the GL we usually see. If you're looking for romance, try somewhere else! But if you're just looking for silly and provoking wlw content stick around for something odd.

What I love about this: It's a clearly well thought out movie from a directing/editing point of view. I like the way the music aligns with beats in the story, the cinematography is crisp, the acting is actually good, and I enjoyed the comedy, suspense, and goosebumps rising horror element. Honestly I can't find much to criticize. I like weird shit, and this got weird. Not super weird, but weird enough. 9.5/10 would recommend.
