![]() | MOVIE #1,819 • 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿 • 07.17.24 This is a stretch for the “kaiju” label but it was on enough of those lists that I checked it out. I found a rough copy with hard eng subs, I think from Internet archive. There's probably a re-release on Blu-ray or DVD that's been restored. I watched this shitty version. There are people who immediately won't/don't take you seriously for this choice. To each their own, I say. This is AT LEAST 20 minutes too long, and during the boring stretch in the first ⅓ / first hour of the picture, I had the overwhelming feeling that I don't wanna be watching this. I wish I could ingest it in pill form, I thought. I like that it makes me contemplate boredom in such a concrete way. I used my burner to download a piano app and just wrote this song, recording it with my ‘proper’ device. Phone A vs. Phone B, well, not really versus. The opposite of that. Here's the dumb 'song'... |

This gets exponentially more interesting if you let it, however. The only joy (probably 90%) is in that letting. You’ll be writing a song on your phone and then — Oh hell yeah, look these fake birds! …

That stretch was easily the best part of the movie. Somewhere in between, I lost the plot on the abusive old mountain man. Never thought in a million years this movie would need a trigger warning for DV but it absolutely does. They eventually settle back into humans wandering through the mountains mode again and it returns to being boring.
