    Jumping back and forth between The Thing and The Lighthouse and realizing that Robocop is my actual favorite movie because I think it’s perfect and I don’t shut the fuck up about it Speaking of which, how nuts is it that this is all in one practical shot? It’d be a washed out CGI background today

    Slowly rebuilding my movie collection with physical copies, which I'm taking as an excuse to ask "Who do I need to subject to The Lighthouse?" and "Hm, has he seen Cat People (1982)...?" One of my favorite things in the world is sharing a movie I love with someone who's never seen it before.

    I got round to watching The Lighthouse (2019) recently and I think it may be one of the best things I've watched this year, beautifully shot, fantastic acting, great sound, and completely disorienting/ insanity-inducing. Kind of film that makes me want to make things

    Nosferatu was so confined by the conventions of horror... there were a few moments that breathed but overall the soundtrack, the design philosophy, the entire approach felt paint-by-numbers. I wanted the Eggers of the Lighthouse to direct this film and get genuinely upsetting.

    It's time once again to talk about weird movies. First up is the 2nd movie from writer/director Robert Eggers, whose first movie was featured in Never Scream It last year, so we have a feeling that The Lighthouse will be a worthy inclusion in this series. lnk.bio/neverseenit

    People in quotes saying "The Lighthouse isn't an appropriate date movie," way to miss the point. It isn't about the movie; it's about understanding the other person has a whole mind and will tell you "I don't want to keep watching this." Also, anything can be a dare movie if you aren't a coward

    THE LIGHTHOUSE (2019) Dir. R. Eggers Feeling existential? How about looking closer into the abyss? This film balances tone so deftly that you drift between dread and humour without quite knowing why. In lesser hands, it could have fallen apart. Instead, we have a masterwork to marvel at forever.🎞️📽️
