need to kill the recurring thought of "no I can't replay/reread that, I have other stuff to check out"

no. I am a poor little peasant living just after the advent of the printing press. I have five books at most and I will reread them so much they will know the death of the author was caused by me

3/5; not the movie I was expecting (in both good and bad ways), very quick pace which I don’t think served the movie super well, I did enjoy the ending and would be interested to rewatch it

1.5/5; such an edge lord movie that just feels like a cheap porno, no character development and a bad ending, some funny moments

2/5; I think this is the most oddly paced movie I’ve ever seen, the killer was a lil freak and there were some funny moments but I felt no emotional investment and had an eh time watching

2.4/5; just like an okay requel, it felt more shallow than the original but it did have some good kills! I just did not care about like any of the characters

3.2/5; I like the idea and the reveal was effective, but I didn’t love the acting or pacing. It’s a movie that could go up upon rewatch and it’s worth a watch if you haven’t seen it!
