I'm loving discovering your channel

Feels like we missed the key moment of Mickey and the Beanstalk. And what is this paranoia about male hero sickness? What's that all about? Then there's there's the anally exploited ALBATROSS... bit too much focus on THAT, methinks...

Ahh havent felt anything since the Rescuers tbh

I definitely remember watching Robbie the Reindeer during autumn family visits 😂

Can't believe you kept referring to the albatross as a seagull after the said it was an albatross in the video lol

Fucking love you guys ❤

Pliny the Younger died around 113 CE, well before the year 1000ad, and the ghost story was recounted in a letter of his.

Fantastic reactions. I too had all but erased A Little Princess from my memory... You should try to get a picture-in-picture format going to avoid the repetitions next time, the live reaction feed was much more fun to watch than the trailer inserts 😂

Great selection, but... why is Labyrinth the only one i remember?

Great Video❤

I watch this movie last week.. tomorrow I’m taking my step mom to watch this. She’s thinks it’s a movie about plastic surgery based off the trailer (it is a metaphor throughout the movie) I CANT WAIT TO SEE HER REACTION 🤣 this movie is absolutely amazing and I personally think that this is a work of ART ✨

I know this is a bit old but it just showed up in my feed right after a little smoke 🥣,💨. This was great. The horror genre always gets a bad rap. Take Toni Collette for example. I know the Oscars are lame but it'd be nice to see her get some kind of recognition. I mean c'mon her in Hereditary? She was brilliant. Nice to hear the genre's coming into its own in 2023/4. Anyway, great essay can't wait to browse your playlists and start binging! Awesome job 😊

such an amazing film! I did a video essay on this film too

I watched this last night. I loved the film, was enthralled. I was not expecting a body horror film.

Perfect review and you are absolutely beautiful!!

Great review!

i really appreciate your focus on lonliness and the lack of friends. this really caught my attention during the film as well. even when she calls her classmate from the past it wasnt to catch up and form a connection, she hoped she'd get a bit of that admiration she is missing after retirement (basically meeting a fan)

I wish the career choice had been modeling or acting. I am perplexed as to why this filmmaker chose aerobics? Not since the day of Jane Fonda has an aerobics show gone big? It feels so out of touch with modernity. I know the filmmaker is French, but even if she is aware of this and intentionally chose aerobics to add to the absurdity, I don't really think it works. Her visual style seems very OTT in a way that comes off as less truly horrific and more slap stick. I think this same story could have been much more affecting if it had been told in a more more realistic way without the over-stylization and camp level grotesque special affects. I also do not understand why we are not seeing through the POV of Sue when Sue is animated. What is the point if Elizabeth is not inside the body of Sue having all of her experiences? I actually thought this film works a little better as a cautionary tale for drug (substance) abuse. I can see Sue as the drive to "use" and Elizabeth's decaying body as the consequence of addiction that the user disregards in pursuit of a fix (or in this case solution).

YES, PLEASE DO A NON ENGLISH LANGUAGE HORROR VIDEO ❤❤❤❤

Horror has been mainstream for a long time. If it was not mainstream, we would not have had a Universal Monsterverse back in the early days of the talkies. Drive-in horror flicks were made for the average Baby Boomer teenager. I think you can make the case that grindhouse and more extreme horror has a niche audience, but the horror genre is made for the masses.

A thoughtful review with a focus on details, references to Howl’s moving Castle *and* Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette? I like your style :D

Literally just came here to say horror has always been main stream in a way. I’m sure the vid is great! Bye

Horror was always mainstream in my eyes! There r SoOo much great actors and actresses that I ADORE that deserve much more credit!

Amazing work, really interesting to delve into the collective subconscious that influences horror, looking forward to seeing more! ❤

Your content has been awesome, ive been recommending you to everyone I can. Just keep up the awesome work!

Love ittt

Thanks for this video.

This was such an incredible film and I'm so happy others are as taken with it as I am. Really interesting and thoughtful analysis, loved it

I'd love to see a lore slash examination slash investigation re bipoc and or queer inclusion in cinema from you! Love your style, your considered taste, your smart takes 👑 New subscriber, soon to be longtime fan. Thanks for the great stuff, Hazel 👏🏾 🖖🏾🥂

New subscriber here. Saw your last video in my recommendations and loved it. Just out of curiosity, have you ever seen the (original French film, NOT the American remake) "Martyrs"? You spoke of banned films and female leads and body horror and was just wondering what you thought of it?? If you haven't seen it, you absolutely must! I have a feeling you have probably seen it, though, lol.

I love this.

Had to watch after it was at the top of my feed three days in a row 😂 I love the research that went into this, even if I'm indifferent to the genre

Very folk horror vibes! I love it!! 💚👻💚

Love this analysis

Re "anti-food movies", one of my favourite movies, l'Atessa, uses visceral food imagery at critical points to excellent effect. It's not frequent but it's very effective.

Very interesting analysis of the movie, can't wait to watch it!🎉

Great video and loved your info! What’s some of your favorite horror films?

X = Immediate click

This was so interesting!! 🖤

Highly recommend you look at 'EAT' (2014) and 'thanatomorphose' (2012).... Both are body horror/feminine rage films and both are very good for much much different reasons. You'd probably enjoy them and I'd like to hear your take. Instant sub. Can't wait to see more content

The stats for women directors really surprised me because I genuinely thought that horror as a sub would have a higher percentage of women working in the space.

Subbed

Such an amazing and well researched video, thank you! Xx

Super happy find! just a lil comment to feed the almighty algo :p

this was an amazing video !! i’m so glad your channel popped up 🫶🏻

please say that you’re planning more videos on horror subgenres :) I really liked this one! non related: you reminded me of carol kane??

I understand the confusion. For a very long time I thought a scream queen is just an actress who plays in a lot of horror films (including the final girl). Great video!

ur video randomly showed up and it was such a great watch!!
