I like MIDSOMMAR, and I think HEREDITARY was one of the best horror movies of recent years, rich on atmosphere and creepy moments. BEAU IS AFRAID was interesting… like a nightmare of someone too afraid to live his life, thereby causing his life to get worse and worse. Eggers is a different story. I did like THE WITCH, very much so, but THE NORTHMAN, while well acted and good looking, just didn’t do anything for me. It was “empty”. Likewise NOSFERATU, which had some great visuals and moments, and Count Orlok was definitely the most repulsive representation of Bram Stoker’s DRACULA I’ve ever seen on film, but I wasn’t sure what the movie was really about. Haven’t seen THE LIGHTHOUSE yet; have it on my “to watch” list for some time but never got around to it.
