nonetheless, a good horror film.

The film deploys the cliché of sexual deviance as the sin of the aristocracy. Indeed, it presents all the horror as deriving from that original sin. There's a brief moment that acknowledges that deviance itself as having an origin, but it's brushed past. I think a Crimson Peak that developed that question further would have been more interesting to me, although I'd still have had mixed feelings.

i have mixed feelings about certain elements, but this was the better done film compared to Mimic (this is perhaps his second horror film per se).

to be clear, this is not a conflict of values between me and the film but the explicit textual problem the protagonist is dealing with rn

oh no, the tragic circumstance in which there's an aristocrat but he's charming.

a tumblr clone where i can't post does do a better job of simulating my tumblr experience in which i don't post

huh, i remembered (partially) two dreams this morning

the kaiju were very cool. the giant robots were mostly cool conceptually. fights were p good. one of the rare movies that str8baits. overall, good. i think i like it slightly more than Hellboy 2.

baby!

i would like to date this kaiju. they have a very cool looking tongue and i think they'd be nice once you get to know them

like five goons simultaneously drawing guns at point blank range on the scientist was funny

i think it is especially cool when the giant robots work by some weird strange means like having two pilots that who synchronize one hemisphere of each of their brains to control the giant robot, or they're powered by love.
