Together
HOLY SHIT NO THANK YOU! Together is one of the most disturbing movies I have seen in a long time.
Allison Brie and Dave Franco, real life couple, play a couple moving to a small town and literally stumble onto a secret magic that makes them start to fuse. The performances from both actors are outstanding, and the script really surprised me. I was expecting “couple moves because they don’t get along and then things get worse”, but both the build up and the ultimate resolution were narratively really interesting. The movie took its time to establish character and conflict, without sacrificing tension.
If you don’t like body horror, DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE. “Body horror” doesn’t even begin to cover it, I discovered icks and phobias I didn’t know I had. The movie doesn’t linger on it, but it’s definitely there. That being said, it’s also really funny, there were character moments and even editing jokes that made me laugh out loud; even after some of the most horrifying moments.
