This makes Scare Me even more unsettling, even though nobody is getting stalked or murdered by an unknown stranger. But it leaves certain intentions up to the imagination. There’s a chilling atmosphere that builds up to the end, leading to a very wild climax. The plot almost sounds too silly as it’s about some writers and a pizza delivery man who are telling each other scary stories all night. It’s a guarantee you’ll love it if you enjoy this kind of horror.Īya Cash owns this movie. The performances are top-notch and Ready or Not is one of those horror comedies that you can rewatch. When her new family makes her play a card game, she pulls the “Hide-N-Seek” card which means she must hide while they find her-only for her life to be in danger. That’s the simplified version, of course. Who does that? Grace (Samara Weaving) does that! The film follows Grace, who marries into an obscenely rich family that happens to perform rituals to stay rich. She absolutely kicks ass, screams like there’s no tomorrow, and does it all in her wedding dress. Rich people and the lengths they’ll go to maintain their status! In this horror-comedy, Samara Weaving is the modern final girl of our dreams.
Ready or Not (2019) (Searchlight Pictures) Brewer’s performance is absolutely perfect and she really makes you care what’s happening to her character. The plot follows camgirl Alice/Lola (Madeline Brewer) whose account is hijacked by a clone of her. Knowing that Issa Mazzei, who wrote the screenplay, was a camgirl before absolutely contributes to why the film works. It also tackles how nefarious the internet can be.
The ways in which sex workers are treated as disposable is partially what this movie is about. Thankfully Cam (2018) seems to touch upon the world of camming, the misconceptions, the dangers that sex workers often face, and the empowerment.
There isn’t always that needed education on sex work, sex workers, or anything surrounding it. Depicting sex work in film is very touch and go.
