Afterward, when everyone would ask me when they found out, like, “what was it like? What did you see?” And I didn’t want to disappoint them, so I’d say… “I don’t know. I don’t remember.” But I remember. Owen was the only person I ever told. There’s nothing. […] I wish I could tell you something. A light at the end of the tunnel. There’s just tunnel.

Prey (2022)

[quarantine-nightmare-theatre]

“The film’s concept derives from a recurring nightmare the director used to have, in which he would be stalked by a predator that continually walked slowly towards him.” | “The time frame of the movie is intentionally kept undefined so that it resembles a dream. Some of the cars shown are from more recent times. Many appear to be from the ’60s to late ’80s. Early CRT television sets are shown whenever the characters are watching movies. Conflicting technology includes Yara on a device that looks like a shell compact, but she reads from it like an e-book reader and uses it as a light source at one point. Also, the girl at the beginning of the film uses a cellphone and drives a modern automobile, with several modern vehicles in view.”

Drag Me To Hell 2009, dir. Sam Raimi

[quarantine-nightmare-theatre]

Saw people talking about Drag Me To Hell on Twitter and while I had fun watching the movie with my mom a few years ago because we like campy horror, people don't talk about how racist it is.

Listen, half of the times I tell people that I'm half Romani, they're like “oh are you gonna rob me/stab me” or they tell me to sing and dance. Sometimes they ask me unironically if my mom is homophobic (no she's not, in fact my entire Romani side of the family are very supportive) or are surprised when they know I'm bilingual, I like to read and I'm continuing with my studies, because to them gypsy girls never study, they get married and have kids at age 15. And sometimes they're like “ostia qué miedo me vas a echar una maldición gitana?” (una maldición no pero igual te doy un guantazo por pesao, en plan sé más original). The Romani witch stereotype is one of the one that bothers me the most. And Drag Me To Hell? Literally every person I've met that's watched that movie is like “oh that movie made me afraid of even talking to gypsies!” So, while I did enjoy it, please remember: that movie is racist af.
