Tiny Review: Humane 2024. Intriguing mix of human psychology and environmental message.

I went into this with low expectations. I don’t particularly enjoy horror. But this pretty good, at least up until the end. And it isn’t really that horrible, more Purge-like.

Great characterizations. Intriguing premise. Good setups, tension, and turns. Recommended.

Humane is a 2024 horror thriller film directed by Caitlin Cronenberg, and written and produced by Michael Sparaga. It stars Jay Baruchel, Emily Hampshire, Sebastian Chacon, Alanna Bale, Sirena Gulamgaus, Uni Park, Enrico Colantoni, and Peter Gallagher.

Humane (2024) Not Really Humane at All

The 2024 production of Humane is not really humane at all. Described as a horror/thriller, it comes across more as a dark comedy. It is ironic that the world, in reality, is suffering a “baby slump.” No one is having babies, or at least the birth rate is s0 low that experts are concerned; Sure climate change is a thing and we d0 have a planet that can really only hold a finite amount of…

Humane

In the near future, over-population and environmental crises have led the world’s nations to set up a program to reward people for electing to die. That’s the premise of Caitlin Cronenberg’s debut feature, HUMANE (2024, Shudder, AMC+), a darkly comic film equating family dysfunction with societal ills.

Charles York (Peter Gallagher), a respected news anchor, and his second wife (Uni Park), an acclaimed chef put out of business by anti-Asian bigotry, inform their four children that they’ve elected euthanasia. When Park changes her mind and runs off, the smiling government death rep (Enrico Colantoni) informs the children that one of them will have to die in her place.  That sets off a series of darkly comic confrontations leading to physical violence as the less than admirable quartet go at each other. The eldest (Jay Baruchal), is an anthropologist advising the government on their euthanasia program with no intention of taking part in it himself. Daughter Emily Hampshire is a crooked pharmaceutical exec under investigation for leaving ineffective drugs on the market. Pianist Sebastian Chacon is a recovering addict who’s killed someone in an auto accident.  And the youngest, Alanna Bale, is a failed actress whose only hope of getting cast is having the other actresses in her type volunteer to die.

A lot of this is wicked fun. Colantino is particularly good at jovially defending his job, and Hampshire pulls off some great comic slaloms. When things get violent, Cronenberg (daughter of David) does a good job staging slapstick mayhem. There are also interesting reflections on the story’s social implications The politicians who formerly denied climate change now use it to demand global euthanasia. Baruchal objects to his father’s volunteering because with the family’s money and connections they’re in no danger should the state resort to conscripting victims. He also brags that the program has been a boon to illegal aliens, whose children get a fast track to citizenship if their parents choose to die, and defends describing the situation as “The Asian Crisis.” When he later says, “I’m not a racist,” it’s a surefire laugh. There are, however, some illogical character choices used to keep the action going, and the ending reaches for a feel-good moment the film and characters haven’t earned. But the rest is well worth a look.

Movie Preview: A Horror Nepo Baby Serves up a "Humane" Satire out of the Ecological Crisis

This debut feature from David Cronenberg’s daughter, whose prior filmmaking credits were “camera and electrical department” (Apprenticeship?) gigs, looks plenty dark and screwy. Jay Baruchel, Emily Hampshie, Peter Gallagher, Enrico Colantoni and Alanna Bale star, and is that Isabella Rossellini’s voice I hear? April 26.

Roll for Shoes

Roll for Shoes is a really fun, very simple TTRPG that has very few rules and a whole lot of improve. You should check out their website for details on that. I just ran the scenario ‘The Stranger’ from the site, and here are my notes on it:

Ragnarok, a town built on Pizza-making, surrounded by A Mountain to the North with the pepperoni mine, a pepperoni river to the east with bountiful topping-fishing, a cheese lake to the south that is irrigated towards the city, and large fields of grain to the west.

Alanna is the Sheriff.

Nelon is a Bounty Hunter, gets most work from catching pizza thieves.

Alise is Pig Spanker at the Piggery.

Alanna likes going to the shooting range, playing cards, and livestreaming on WesTube.com.

Nelon likes to go the Cheese Lake and drown his captives in the cheese, and eating a nice fresh slice.

Elise likes to [REDACTED]

Nelon is hunting a pigthief, riding his pizzabike. Nelon heads him off at the pass, but the pigs ate his bike.

At the Piggery, Alise is oiling some newly-manifested piglets. A piglet, freshly oiled, escapes! The Piggery's wolves will eat the pig if Alise can't catch it! Alise throws a hay bale at the wolf to try and stop it from eating the piglet...

Well, that's one less piglet to worry about...

Alanna does paperwork on stream following a drug raid from previous day. Production of narcotics from pizza ingredients in Ragnarok is legal, but strictly regulated. Alanna gets distracted and enters several WesTube account names instead of the perpetrators on the paperwork.

The Stranger arrives, just as Alanna pulls up to the Saloon in her shiny car, just as armed as he is. She follows him into the Saloon, ordering a glass of Wine.

Nelon deposits the pigs at the Piggery and goes to the Saloon to order a Pepperoni Cheese Slammer.

Alise walks in and orders a round of shots for the house while sobbing and just goes to town, telling all and sundry about the tragedy at the Piggery earlier that day.

Alanna promises to have a talk with the wolves later.

The Stranger challenges Alise to a duel because he thinks that the towns treatment of Pigs is fucking weird. Alise agrees.

Everyone but Nelon gets drunk.

At the time of the Duel, Alise has a nasty hangover but manages it with aplomb.

Alanna gives Alise her custom revolver to use during the duel.

Alise gets easily riled up by the Stranger's taunting, and when the duel starts she forgets to unsnap the little belt on the holster that keeps her gun in place, meaning she never even draws before the Stranger shoots her in the shoulder.

Downed, Alise is picked up by Nelon, who hands Alanna her fancy gun back and carries Alise to the Piggery.

In the pigpen, Alise attempts to get the pigs to render first aid, but they have no idea what she's grunting about and start to eat her. Before they can do more than a cursory gnaw, Nelon tells them to knock it off and help.

One pig grabs a first aid kit and puts it on Alise, and Nelon climbs in to finish the job.

Having witnessed their compassion, Nelon decides to work at the Piggery.

Having witnessed how quickly her beloved pigs would eat her, Alise has decided to take up Bounty Hunting instead.

Alanna, the Sheriff, informs the stranger he'd best be on his way, and after one last drink at the Saloon, he agrees, and rides off into the sunset.
