Absolutely Insane!! A compelling horror satire, a successor to David Cronenberg, a future cult classic and Coralie Fargeat's entry into the modern horror league alongside Jordan Peele, Ari Aster and Robert Eggers. You are not ready for this shit!! Two and a half hours of sheer entertainment, in the first half Coralie attacks male thrills in supreme style and many will have passionate and sexy fantasies with goddess Margaret Qualley – that girl has a future! (When was the last time we saw an actress full frontal naked?). But Demi Moore is not far behind, even at 60 she still looks great and gives an impressive acting performance. And speaking of acting, I have to mention Dennis Quaid, who absolutely relishes the role. What impressed me was the soundtrack like something out of a dense rave, it adds an incredible edge to the whole madness, the impressive cinematography with a nod to art (those close-ups are a treat), the frilly visuals, the cool idea and then of course we have the popular body horror elements, where the make-up artists did a masterful job. The final transformation evokes anything from The Fly to The Thing, and it was something we haven’t seen in a long time – there was also my unpopular tooth and nail pulling. The Troma-like finale was a bit over the top and I believe it may annoy some viewers, but I couldn’t stop staring at the geyser of blood that painted the whole room (I thought no could paint the house from roof to basement with blood like Timo Tjahjanto in Macabre, but this one broke those boundaries). The women, however, will spend most of the time feeling inferior, imperfect, and having major complexes, the hatred from them for this film is more than obvious, but, as I like to say, the Chosen Ones will undoubtedly enjoy the film. A hypnotic, transcedent experience as well. 10/10.

I didn’t like the first film, I found it cringe-worthy and embarrassing, so I avoided the second one, but eventually gave it a chance out of boredom and surprisingly it was okay in the end. It's also thanks to fan favourite Jenna Ortega and the much better effects. There's the occasional joke, some pretty creative ideas and the scenes in the afterlife are decent, it's a fun romp for the little ones that while it doesn't wow, it didn't offend me this time. That said, Tim Burton will probably never be one of my favourite directors. 6/10.

Matthias Schweighöfer is a great guy and I enjoy his comedies. Rhe comedy genre is dying in America, but at least it's not stagnating in Europe (France/Germany). The first half is very funny and offers some very funny scenes (the scene with the ferret is great, and also the scenes with the brother). The second half is more of a romantic drama, but I liked both. Nothing new, but enjoyable and entertaining. 7/10.
