Inspired by Bresson films for sure, in a good way. K i nd of gives the notion that all suicides are actually murders because someone somewhere chose to be selfish, or dismissive of a human's misery

Okay so here's what I honestly think. This film is just a brutal, gruesome look at the reality of suicide.

It also tells us to have a connection with ourselves before anyone else which yes, it's profound but personally think it's not as powerful a sentiment as it's supposed to be considering its the movies philosophy.

Because if you're this connected to yourself that you don't need anyone else, then isn't that the opposite of the other message of the film which is to not be selfish and self serving?

And even this is a matter of opinion, so I'm not at all dismissing the creator for it but what did bug me was that one antagonist who is quite obviously Tim Currys character from Rocky Horror and if he was trying to pay homage I don't know but it just didn't fit and kept bugging me.


But, all those problems aside this film is still very much a masterpiece. Yes, it's depressingly gory but then gore is not of the itchi the killer variety it's not supposed to shock, or give glamor, but create the same creepy, surreal, hypnotic vibe this film is set to give. Which wilk make you feel like you just witnessed a group of girls get mangled under the train .

But like I said this movie does it not to be some splatter gruesome edgy movie, it does this to connect you to the characters and the story.

It was definitely brilliant in so many ways but it's disturbing like nothing so please bear that in mind.
