Stopmotion (2023)
5/10
Weird Dark Tale
24 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
I saw Stopmotion, starring Aisling Franciosi-The Last Voyage of the Demeter, Game of Thrones_tv; Tom York-Poldark_tv, Olympus_tv; Stella Gonet-Breeders_tv, Man Down_tv and Caoilinn Springall-Citadel_tv, The Midnight Sky.

This is a weird little movie. Aisling is a stopmotion animator, like her mother Stella. Stella is in bad health and has Aisling trying to help her finish her last stopmotion movie but doesn't have the patience she used to have with her daughter and it's stressing Aisling out. When Stella has to go into the hospital after having a stroke, Aisling gets help from a little girl in the apartment complex, Caoilinn, to work on the movie. But there is something strange about Caoilinn, who wants to turn the movie into a dark tale of horror. Tom is Aisling's boyfriend that tries to help Aisling but something is wrong with her-is she somehow under the influence of Caoilinn, who doesn't seem to be acting like a little girl? It gets pretty bloody near the end and somethings are not fully explained-or maybe it's just me-but the ending was strange.

It's rated R for violence, gore, language, drug use and sexual content-no nudity-and has a running time of 1 hour & 33 minutes.

It's not one that I would buy on DVD but if you like stopmotion, it would be alright to stream.
