Barbarian (2022)

Zach Cregger directs Georgina Campbell, Bill Skarsgård and Justin Long in this horror mystery where… listen… the less you know… the better.

Just a wild ride… and a really balanced satire on modern day Western decline. But still with enough gore, shocks and transgressions to really thrill as a creepy midnight show rollercoaster. A comedian I really rate, Alfie Brown, recently wrote an off-hand tweet that has haunted me since. “What if this is early stage capitalism?” This film feels very attuned to the nightmare that evokes if you think about it all for more than a few seconds.
