Did you know
- TriviaIn total, 15 dog trainers were needed to get all the dogs necessary for the movie. Already-trained dogs were preferred to avoid wasting time on training new dogs. Before shooting the dog scenes, Caleb Landry Jones spent three days with the trainers and their dogs to get comfortable with the canines.
- Quotes
Douglas Munrow: I always liked disguises. It's what you do when you don't really know who you are, right? You dress up, you make up a past to forget your own.
Evelyn: Did you know anyone else? Somebody that could show you some attention or affection?
Douglas Munrow: A child takes affection where he can get it. They're my babies. As far as I can tell, they only have one flaw: they trust humans.
Featured review
Gripping
I am really not convinced that this was a good film. In countless little and large parts the action feels like it is only just holding together thanks to clichés so overused they can only point in one direction.
At the same time Caleb left me breathless. His presence stole the show not just in how over the top he played but also in modulating into relatively quieter moments with ease, speed and precision.
Laughing at the movie, with the movie. Being scared for the movie, and then for the characters themselves. Somehow it all seemed to harmonize - a rhyme with no reason.
There was definitely a strong message there but again I could not catch it.
I was amazed at the creativity of everyone involved, and the shear number of what was clearly pulled straight out from somewhere else.
Between the story itself just holding on for it's own dear life, the incredible performance and just the insanity of the whole concept I simply could not take my eyes of the screen. Tension was rising on the screen as well as on a meta level. It was like an old wooden rollercoaster and I could not discern between the thrill of what was lacking in construction and the multitude of sharp fantastical curves.
I loved it all the way, will watch it again, will make my friends watch it.
Gripping. Transcendental. Up its own ass. Gripping.
