Stopmotion (2023)
2/10
Terrible
23 February 2024
Good lord, this was horrid. Abstract/surreal "horror" (or any type of genre constructed this way) does not appeal to me at all and this one is right on up there with one of the worst horrors I've seen, despite how well-made it may have been technically. Low-budget/cheap horror from the 80s was better than this nonsensical story. Sure, the technical aspects are pretty solid (cinematography, acting, whatever), but the story itself is so out there it just was not enjoyable on almost any level. The stop motion portions were well done, but the other elements just had me rolling my eyeballs at the pretentiousness and craziness of the whole thing. The music/sound design got on my nerves to the point that it made me angry, and the main character was so off her rocker and poorly written that I stopped caring about whatever was going to happen to her early on. Despite it's slim runtime of only about 90 minutes, it felt too long. Perhaps it Video review to come shortly.
