    Kind of reminds me of mother! in terms of the theme. Weird, but draws you in. There's more to horror than giving you jump scares. There's always underlying meanings to be dissected.

      Alot of people get that you have to read between the lines with films try and figure stuff out but then there is cheese like this film. felt like I had seen most of before If you haven't seen "From" the tv show then watch it very similar feels like that show was ripped off I did figure some of the twist if you can call It that this film isn't that good.

      I loved Mother! It was essentially just the Bible played out in a house. Should have been called The Audacity lol

    Coincidentally (or perhaps not) The Book of Enoch, as well as Hebrew and Christian Folklore ranks the "Sons of God" from Genesis as part of a group of angels/gods called "The Watchers."

    Finally a real true semiotic analysis of this film. I really appreciate every bit of your insight and thank you so much for sharing it . I was wondering about the meaning of Watcher and gaze and voyeurism, also the Lacanian mirror and self realization. How about looking at the changeling and Mina’s twin as a Jungian archetypes ? The creatures as our shadow self? Looking within?

    I didn't see the twist, really. I'll admit that, but to say horror/fantasy when this movie leans more into a thriller is upsetting.
    Especially when the psychological part was very mute. So I'd say fantasy/thriller.
    Overall, i enjoyed the movie n hope to see her grow as a director.

    • @chamoisauce7491
      @chamoisauce7491 3 місяці тому

      while it may be obvious to some, i think some just forget to think abt that possibility cause they’re so drawn into the story and the “wildness” that’s going on we just see them as human and are stuck wondering what the fairies are as we don’t truly know until near the end. loved this movie was so invested

  • @muffyscrazyworld2707
    @muffyscrazyworld2707 2 місяці тому

    While watching it I also saw the connections to the bible. M night Shyamalan always has biblical undertones in his movies so his daughter doing the same makes sense.
    Some of us believe in the fae in the sense that they are similar to the nephilim so some people can take it as only fiction but these stories and lore all have to come from something...

    • @ThorogoodFilms
      @ThorogoodFilms  2 місяці тому

    Please read or listen to the book/audiobook. It’s a fiction written by a human being. I do NOT understand WHY people take these stories so seriously and try to get analytic about it. See it for what it is - a fictional story.
