    I watched this last night...A high school girl summoned a 'dark spirit' to kill her mother and then...changed her mind. It didn't work out for her. It was actually 'scary'.

    I watched this last night to get a feel about Iranian culture. I don't know if I was being misled by a 'movie' but the impression I got was a little surprising to me. Of course, the actual crimes took place in the 80's which was early in the religious effort to undo secular society but it seemed a 'looser' society than I expected. The movie itself did not paint the 'corrupted' women in the sexualized method that Western movies do that's for sure. Some of the portrayed social attitudes were sobering if not enlightening. The supposed encouragement of the son to continue the father's work was interesting yet shocking and sickening at the same time. A fine example of humanity at its worst.

    I did pick up on some language similarities

    I watched this one on TV many years ago. It was pretty scary. But then again, the screenplay was written by Stephen King, so...

    Can't wait for Martin Scorcese's new movie. He's my favorite director! The latest season of Love, Death and Robots on Netflix is great--particularly the one with Indian feel and violent water nymph, or however that translates from our culture to their culture.

    I don't know how I keep missing these, I'll catch it sooner or later.

    Watched this last night, it borrowed from a number of flicks of the same genre. As far as I know, it garnered no press but it was scary and weird. It was so intense I wasn't sure I was going to be able to keep watching it. In intensity, it reminded me of Japanese produced movies. The star was pretty hot to boot.
