>be me>cousin I haven't seen for 7 years comes visit with her bf>decide we should see a movie all together on her last day in town>decide it'll be a horror movie>I suggest "Rosemary Baby" as I know it's a cult classic and none of them (i.e. my mom, little brother, aunt, cousin, and her bf) haven't seen it, including myself>cousin searches it on magis tv>everyone reacts like "LOL that's too old anon!!">let family decide>cousin chooses picrel after scrolling through the "horror" section for like 2 minutes, rejecting "A House of Dynamite" in the process, suggested by my mom because "Idris Elba stars in good movies">movie starts>sit through 100 minutes of the worst slop imaginable>characters made without the slightest hint of sovl, constantly taking the most braindead decisions and having beyond uncanny dialogues>acting is beyond shit too>special effects feel super tacky, and even the simplest shots had tasteless amounts of digital edition>literally no plot or sense of sequence whatsoever as everything happens out of the blue>cousin's bf even fell asleep like 15 minutes in>by the end, everyone thinks it was a shit movie>my cousin downplays it by saying "it's just the typical american horror movie"I don't think I'll ever watch modern cinema again.
