Thursday gang.
I really liked The Menu much more than I expected 7.5/10. They interspersed the social satire commentary with the horror elements very well in a way that it’s not pushed into our faces in every scene. And it didn’t come across corny or campy. Top horror movie starting off this year for me.Might watch The Menu tonight. I wanted to watch Torn Hearts also but I had to take a break after the Orphan movies.
The Menu dropped on HBO Max fam. It's...weird. It wasn't what I expected based on the trailers. But I also found it darkly funny. There's a few movies to drop recently that give you unlikeable characters and it ruins the experience. But this one was a bunch of unlikeables and one relatable woman...and suddenly, I actually enjoyed the humor. I laughed hard as hell at the conclusion.
It's like this movie was giving me bizarro Ari Aster's Midsommar vibes BEFORE the big conclusion. I laughed out loud at the burger scene too. It's a pretentious movie, but it felt like they took it to the extreme in a sarcastic way that bodied me.
It's definitely an "everyone sucks" kinda movie. There's a whole "what is value" theme that's pretty cool discussion point. But I really like that they took it so over the top that it felt more like camp than a serious meditation. I was bouncing between annoyed and chuckling, but then the Burger scene sealed it for me. I want to watch it back again too, because I'm sure I missed some jokes. Even the recipes at the end were making me crack up.

That movie was very dark with the hopelessness and non-substantive value of some people in society, even though it had comedic tones - think that I may need to give it a second watch bc I know that I missed certain references.
