Is to put an animal out of its misery also to acknowledge the misery of our loved ones, and their own justifications? It seems like a stretch, but aside from human philosophy and our own values, who's to say?

This film destroys the idea that a story needs to encompass one topic alone in order to be cohesive and engaging. Addiction, peer pressure, depression, loneliness - all so beautifully and tastefully done.

I can't commend the Philippou brothers enough for what they've accomplished in making their vision a reality. The editing, performances, cinematography, sound design, all of it form the most visceral horror I've seen since Hereditary.
