    Today's parody is The Platform! A movie about a voluntary prison that highlights human greed and gluttony. A platform lowers once a day filled with delicious food, but will you only eat your dish so that others can eat? Or will you be a pig and devour the entire platform, leaving nothing for others.

    Watching this movie because Netflix described it as a combination between Cube and The Platform and I've decided the person who wrote that hasn't watched or understood either Cube or The Platform.

    The Platform is the sort of movie where I want to know everything I can about the world, while also understanding that knowing a single thing more than the movie tells you would absolutely ruin it.

    This seems like good news. Right wing rich-lister Wayne Wright jnr has pulled his funding of the Platform, Sean Plonker's warped little media outfit. That leaves Plonker as sole director and 100% shareholder. May the nasty little hate site run out of money and choke on its own bile, sooner rather than later.

    Wrote an essay on Spanish 2019 horror film "The Platform", which uses a cloak of nihilism to present a message about the difficulties inherent in, and the absolute necessity of, maintaining solidarity in the face of absolute barbarism. (h/t to @randomhorror9.bsky.social, whose fault this is.)

    This isn't so much about survival of the fittest as survival of the fattest - and the nearer you are to the top of the prison tower in which this takes place, the more likely you are to dine daily on a sumptuous feast. Quite how he's ended up fifty-odd floors down isn't clear, but "Goreng" (Ivan Massagué) learns from his not entirely trustworthy cellmate "Trimagasi" (Zoriom Eguileor) is that each day, a table is lowered through a hole in the ceiling from the level above containing the food that…

    A Short Stay In Hell is a little like a remake of Jorge Luis Borges's 1941 short story The Library Of Babel, and Peck's library Hell is even based in-universe on Borges's library. Peck's novella also reminded me of the great 2019 Spanish film The Platform and the Infinite IKEA SCP story.

The 2020 Spanish-language sensation is reportedly being pitched for remake rights, with producers eyeing new international versions of the film. Set inside a brutal vertical prison where food descends floor by floor, The Platform became one of Netflix’s most-watched non-English movies and a global phenomenon. #ThePlatform

    The Platform (2019) explores wealth inequality through a brutal vertical prison system, symbolizing human greed and survival instincts. Director Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia uses minimal sets enhanced by visual effects to create a dystopian environment that reflects social critique. Cannibalism and violence serve as metaphors for selfishness in a harsh hierarchical society. The story centers on Goreng’s transformation from indifference to moral awareness, driving the emotional core amid external and…

    "The Platform" is one of those movies that sticks with you long after the credits roll. It's not your typical horror flick, though it definitely has some gruesome moments. This isn't about jump scares, it's about a terrifying concept that's surprisingly relevant to our world. The directing is brilliant. They keep the tension high throughout, and the way they use the limited space of "the pit" is incredibly claustrophobic. The cinematography is equally impressive, with some truly unsettling…

    Look, I loved THE PLATFORM as much as anyone. It was a bold, brilliant, and daring high-concept horror dystopian flick that had a great deal to say about class, inequality, and the prison-industrial complex. But do we really need a sequel? What more can be said beyond what the first film offered? I feel that the people who green-light these things never ask that question. #film #theplatform #sequel

    The Platform is a unique story that asks some deep questions but ultimately left me disappointed. The Platform has such an intriguing concept that raises a variety of potent philosophical and moral questions and dilemmas. The film begs the question, “What if?” How would I respond in such dire and impossible circumstances? What would I do? As characters grapple with their desperate circumstances, a hero attempts to find hope by devising a plan to send a message to their captors and possibly save…

    Rate: zero This is what happens when we build a house for a door (instead of building a house and then put doors in it); An exotic, dirty and cluttered movie. Dirty but not necessarily in the visual meaning but in the cinematic meant.

A lot of the time when I get to say anything close to that, I get to say, "but there is humor too", there is not: not traditional humor anyways. This is a dark movie filled with metaphor and cruel reality. Now while I am usually offended by reality encroaching on my escapism, that is normally when I'm trying to watch dirt humor.

In 2018, Roma (re)opened a Best Picture nomination path to foreign films. Last year, Martin Scorsese's epic The Irishman could only come to life via streaming since no major studio wanted a three-and-a-half-hour runtime for a theater release.

    don't waste your time. Most of the movie happens in a sort of multi-floor prison where the top levels can control the food that goes to the bottom floors. This created a sort of class structure where top-levelers had pleasure on denying food to the bottom levels, although the floors were sorted periodically. The protagonist started to question this structure and tried to change it. Although starting well, the movie lost its track trying to be too much symbolic and enigmatic. The ending was very…
