Thank you for reviewing one the best quebec film in recent years! I was at a screening with the director, he said that his oldest fan was in the room, in 90s year old grand-father! I talked to him after the movie, He was very kind with me and my sister!
Surprised to c this movie finally getting a review from a revered youtuber. I was shocked to not see it pop up in any channel let alone the best of lists. classic case of underrated
The release for this is a mess, and it's not helping - people just don't know it exists. It's out on VoD and even blu-ray in some countries, in limited release in others, and some don't even have a scheduled release at all yet (like the US). Very unfortunate, but I know audiences will make this one a hit eventually - it's too good to be this obscure.
Thanks for such an excellent review! I saw this a few days ago and loved it - appreciate your attention to some details! I hope more people see this once it’s streaming in the U.S. soon.
So interesting that the Lady of Shallot is woven into the story! Out flew the web and floated wide; The mirror crack'd from side to side; "The curse is come upon me," cried The Lady of Shalott.
Watched it just a few days ago. It's terrific. Pascal Plante never allows you true insight into the mind of Kelly Anne, which is where some of the true horror comes from. This is the horror film to beat for the rest of 2024.
I'm so glad you talked about and recommended this film, because I've never even heard of it before. I can't pretend i fully understood the main character, but i will deffinetly rewatch this in the near future. Great movie. It had the scariest facial expressions since "Come and see". 😅
Ahhh I was just thinking Shalloy was a reference to the onion browser this Arthutian aspect makes me see the movie in such a different light. Great review!
This is the first video of yours I've watched and I really like your style. Thanks for the review - It looks very smart and definitely up my alley- Can't wait to give that AND Anatomy of a fall a watch asap. I would love to see a list of (as you put it) films where the puzzle pieces come together - pls!
I am SOOO sold. Thank you, Marianna, for the recommendation! I hope this movie will be available on VOD (if not in theaters) in Poland sometime soon :) Can't wait.
Since this is on topic, as someone who is into true crime the idea of having a "favorite serial killer" or other things along that line is just perplexing to me. Like serial killers aren't fictional characters they're real people who have done awful things. The way some people can be with true crime is a reflection of humanity's voyeuristic side (like with parasocial relationships, wanting to know as much as possible about your favorite celebrities, etc.)
Great review. How do you interpret the ending of the movie? Did she bet to procure the last video just for her personal use or she did it to help move the case forward?
Thanks for the review. I didn't know about this movie, it sounds so interesting. I discovered your channel recently and have been enjoying your reviews. Love that you focus on the movie, analyse it and keep it on subject instead of talking about unrelated things that a lot of other reviews do. Keep up the good work.
I just finished watching the movie and it was so intense. Although there was no graphic scenes the sounds alone were horrifying and disturbing. Thank you for recommending it.
Thank you for this recommendation. Enjoy all of your reactions. Especially those within the horror genre. Heard you and a couple of other You Tube reactors say that 2024 is supposed to be a very good year for horror movies. So there is much to look forward to.
Just watched it, loved seeing a lot of locations in my city of Montreal. Kind of wish they gave the two leads more development, especially come the ending. I would of prefered an ending that showcased how diving deep into the seedy part of humanity, doesn't really help anyone but herself in her obsession. Guess 8MM did it better on that end, because even when Nick Cage finds out who the killer really is, and helps the mother of the girl who died in the snuff film know she actually died, and the killer was given justice...There was a cost, and ultimately, were they better off for knowing? Not really. Kind of wish this movie played on that more, since they even mention at the start"we're lucky we don't have the other girl's footage..."still a great flick though, I just feel the two leads lacked the WEIGHT in writing that would have given the ending some punch, and felt less like a vigilante justice ending. Still glad montreal film making isn't dead, this movie was gorgeously filmed above all else (I even knew an extra on the set of the court case LOL the goth girl sitting next to the lead at the start of the film)
@@ImpressionBlendok I just caught this (had to scour to find it). Stylish, hypnotic, stunning and so eerie. It’s a yes. Very well done. Oh my God, the first scream when she puts on the braces. Jaw drop. What a haunting moment.
Okay Marianna I'm drooling. Now since I'm am ensconced in the Caucasus, I am wondering if this is theatrical or streaming. It's nowhere on the horizon here theatrically speaking. To put things in focus, Poor Things arrived last Thursday. So a hint please. (I'm hoping for theatrical...) Anyway, thanks for the definitive encouragement to see this or turn my horror license back in.
Found the channel and stayed for the insights and thoughts on HotD But then I see this.. I watched Red Rooms twice and I´m really unsure what to think about Kelly Anne still If you can make anything of it, I´d love a spoiler review or analasys or short =) whatever
court room cyber thriller is not what I was expecting after reading the name "RedRooms" especially after having read some comments from people who have actually been in one of these infamous red rooms themselves (by accident) in the dark web. I was expecting this to be done in a style of SAW movies
I think she bought the video, yes for herself but as a way to get the Mother of Camille, for all her spite towards “fans” of the killer. I think she wanted her to see her Daughter die and to know someone was in her house but she’d never figure out who.
Thank you. For me, it was not a mystery. It was obvious Kelly Ann was a twisted serial killer fan girl, and obvious that Clementine was a victim with a saviour complex. There was no reason to suppose he was innocent. That was not a surprise. I did not feel that Kelly Ann was unravelling because she never seemed “raveled”, she just got caught. One reason people obsess about true crime is knowing that some crimes can be solved and that bad guys can be caught and that cold cases can eventually be solved. Also, a lot of people worry about being victimised and have sympathy for the victims.
At first, I was like, "Why are this movie exposing me?" Then the movie hit me with the "courtroom scene". You know the one I mean 😂. Being a little crazy is one thing, but Kelly-Anne takes it to a whole new level ☠.
Definitely the most intense film I saw at last year’s LFF. Tension just kept building and building and I had no idea where the hell the movie was going to go to. Best to go into this movie as blind as possible!
@@ImpressionBlend The release schedule is pretty maddening & depressing. I keep recommending this film to friends and than having to tell them that no, it won’t get a theatrical release and no, it doesn’t appear to have even been released yet on any of the main streaming sites in the UK.
I don't know if it's getting a full theatrical - it played at festivals, it had a limited release in some countries, and now it's available on VoD in some places (Canada being one of them)
I just finished watching this and it threw me off I thought she was the killer could damn near change her appearance to damn near anyone. Right but because off the very last joke told from the computer and the way she was acting right? So the house she kept breaking into is the house that the murders were committed right? And she's setting him up to get guilty fuck idk completely
It's amazing how it was the scariest film of the year without needing to be graphic. Just through the photography and sound I was able to scare myself with the cruelty. That courtroom scene was the most chilling of the year.
Just watched a short doc on Vice about Columbine shooters fandom. Now those people are fucked up lol. We’re normal as hell. I’ll be checking this out when given the chance!
So... has anyone tried searching for this? Because as far as I can tell, this movie isn't showing or streaming anywhere... I'm in the US, is it just not here? Not really expecting an answer but after several minutes of searching I'm a bit loopy and will try anything...! Does no one want my money for this?!
Спасибо тебе большое за рекомендацию. Даже маме показал (а так-то я дед-пердед под сорок), и ей понравилось. Очень люблю твой канал, у тебя крайне впечатляющий вкус.
It's going to makes its way to streaming eventually, but currently it's available on VoD in some countries (Canada, for example), so you can watch it with a VPN
@@ImpressionBlend Marianne is clearly a woman of substance and insight. Let's hope in the next review she enchants us with her singing voice. A rendition of "Feed the Birds" from Mary Poppins will suffice as I have my spot of earl grey tea and breakfast crumpet...
I Have to say, as a film maker but also as a spectator, having just seeing the movie, is more like a tv movie than cinema. It doesn't really hold up. It's not bad, but it's far from good. Distancing visually from the «cool factor», would have been a better opttion.
