Animal Among Us (2019)
Wat
As pretentious as it is inane. As convoluted as it is idiotic.
Ginger Snaps (2000)
A bildungsroman with Dutch Angles.
A nearly perfect, darkly satirical horror movie. It's tight, simple, thematically focused, well acted, and well shot. Quirky and strange before it was hip.
The director makes excellent use of Dutch angles, which I normally hate.
Ginger Snaps is, ostensibly, an allegory for puberty and growing up. It's not especially deep or subtle, but it works. The werewolf lore is similarly simple and effective; it's a disease, nothing more, whose side effects are similar to puberty.
It's something of a niche movie, combining disparate elements into a quirky and strange film.
Beruseruku (2016)
Distractingly horrid animation buoyed by its source material
Only for those desperate to see more Berserk. What can be said about the animation that hasn't already been said? The 2D is fine, even great sometimes, but it's a shame we hardly see it in motion.
The constant camera moving, which includes large amounts of quick panning and cuts to hide the bizzare CG animation, is headache inducing.
