Was pleasantly surprised by The Art of Self-Defense (Let’s do push-ups!) so I was looking forward to Riley Stearns’ follow-up feature.
Once again, we’re in very darkly humorous territory as this is for-sure a black comedy.
For fans of his work, they won’t be disappointed. The robotic dialogue. The flat, matter-of-fact delivery. His fascination with the roots of physical violence. All present and accounted for.
The ending might not satisfy everyone, but I also don’t believe the expected conclusion was where Stearns’ interests laid.
Oh, and if you’re feeling adventurous, the movie helpfully suggests a new search topic on pornhub. Anyone interested in pool orgies at confirmed haunted houses, have at it.
