Yes, the character is strong, but why did she have to be resilient in that way?\u00a0 It\u2019s just, the protagonist, Ellen had the whole life she knew taken away from her.\u00a0 Then when she thought she found someone to give her world back to her in some kind of form, it turns out to be distorted. She couldn\u2019t even see colors the same way anymore, and the way they just put the viewers into her perspective was so deep that even the colors she couldn\u2019t see looked dull to me.\u00a0 If that makes sense.\u00a0 I can&#8217;t really just explain it to you without spoiling it, you would just have to watch it.\u00a0 Like the pacing was great and I loved how we saw what was in her mind and not what was in reality.\u00a0 Also, my sister obsessed over the shot design.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyway- The movie is about a violinist who was attacked and lost her sight.\u00a0 She\u2019s moved to this apartment by people she can\u2019t see but can only hear.\u00a0 Which is way important to this plot as she begins to start hearing some stuff that sounds paranormal.\u00a0 So, with that, the twist left my jaw on the floor. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: inherit; font-size: 28px;\">THE MIST\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-19599\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bKvL6coYlhpA7aGW1RpYuPkCjrF-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bKvL6coYlhpA7aGW1RpYuPkCjrF-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bKvL6coYlhpA7aGW1RpYuPkCjrF-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bKvL6coYlhpA7aGW1RpYuPkCjrF-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bKvL6coYlhpA7aGW1RpYuPkCjrF.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 85vw, 200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I mostly adore all of Stephen King&#8217;s works, so I was a little iffy about the movie when I very first read the summary of it.\u00a0 It has giant bugs in the plot which we couldn\u2019t see.\u00a0 I think that it benefited the plot that we couldn\u2019t see the bugs because it&#8217;s kind of amped up that mental distrust.\u00a0 We were seeing the characters be tortured by a threat that they couldn\u2019t even see all the way.\u00a0 There were signs that the giant bugs were there, but since the movie was more philosophy driven it was like the bugs were just a domino factor.\u00a0 It seemed Stephen King needed them as the starting domino to push the conflict between the characters together. I can\u2019t explain but this movie really makes you ponder on the survival instincts of humanity.\u00a0 Like, how far will we go to survive?\u00a0 Also, a bonus is that the movie was purposely grainy so that it could have that old bedtime monster pizzazz.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any who- The movie is a science fiction horror movie that mostly focuses on a father and son who\u2019s trapped with a bunch of people in a store.\u00a0 And all of these people have different views on how they can survive through the weird catastrophe.\u00a0 The ending is insane.\u00a0 If you get emotionally damaged really easily, I suggest you shouldn\u2019t watch this movie.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">THE MENU<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img

watched this about six times because each time I was making a new family member watch it with me so I could see their reactions (which most of the time, replicated mine) and hear their thoughts.\u00a0 I enjoyed the main protagonist&#8217;s background development here and while her personality was written a little flat it was okay because her actions were diverse to me, so it kind of made up for it.\u00a0 The person she was with at this restaurant was spontaneous to me and I didn\u2019t see his character arc coming, and he was just those characters that made such an impact on the plot that it made you look at things kind of differently. \u00a0 The chef also was an 8\/10 but that\u2019s just because I didn\u2019t jump at the things he did.\u00a0 Another thing, the setting was so fun to analyze, well the whole movie was, but the setting added a little spice to the drama.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any who \u2013 The movie is basically about this young couple who goes to this deserted island to eat at this exclusive restaurant where they encounter some issues and surprises.\u00a0 Y\u2019all this movie genre is Horror, Dark Comedy, and Thriller.\u00a0 When I tell you I laughed because of how crazy this movie was, people should at least try this movie once.\u00a0 Just saying in my opinion.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span

It was about 2 months since quarantine had started and one of the main things, I was doing for entertainment was binging every thriller and psychological movie on Netflix. It was going slow for a minute, I didn\u2019t really find anything that just caught my attention, until\u2026 My sister and I came across The Vanished.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This movie was gaslighting itself in a whole, you think you know the characters actions, what they plan to do, but no; you have no idea.
