Okay body horror but story not so much
16 December 2021
Strange and weird are not the only characteristics to establish a media. This flick clearly marketed from top to bottom for Cannes, it has its moments but overall it is just shock-values for Cannes turn-around. There is more political context around the film than actual substance of it. It's not a bad film either, just not very entertaining or even healthy, but if one can compartmentalize those aspects, there is rather simple story. And it's neither great nor enjoyable - because overboard political Cannes says to be so.

Body horror was okay though, and couple of moments with gender swapping are funny, but all these unnecessary killing sprees accidentally throws the baby out with the bathwater. If you know what I mean. No pun intended.

Does not live up to the hype.
