How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A visceral descent into psychological and physical horror as a grieving woman's retreat to the English countryside becomes a nightmare that collapses the boundary between external threat and internal torment. Haunting and body-horror-inflected, it's both a ghost story and a reckoning with grief itself.

I could write a joke review but what the actual fuck is that ending?
Probably one of the worst endings to a film i have ever seen and i know i Say that allot this year, this worst and that worst but oh my god i Desperately wanna know what went threw Alex's head.
Why do male characters we see through the film get pregnant, each getting Shitted out by the last male character.

Harper is not really a well rounded character and is more so a puppet for Garland's narrative and metaphores which allot of films do that, the Metaphore is linked to the characters experiences but the problem here Is that not any of it is good.

Its kinda hard to rate this film because while it has good cinematography And lead performance by jessie buckley...that ultimately gets Undermined by everything else and its not like those two things are EXTREMELY PHENOMONAL.
