tldr: watch the descent (bonus, the sequel was good too) or as above so below instead of this.

ugh. i know not to expect a lot from a straight to streaming horror but it would be nice to be surprised sometimes. can i just say i'm glad the godzilla/kong franchise gives their creatures actual features? the split second grainy footage of clovey in cloverfield made sense since it was found footage style, but nothing's more disappointing than traditional cinematography copping out of showing their monsters properly. and after watching a cutie film like love and monsters i definitely have way higher expectations for the monster genre.

also, it might be just because i took migraine meds that kicked in in the third act but the movie's strongest in the beginning (not to say it's strong though) and just goes downhill from there. only character i really feel any sense of investment in is will patton's because what an arrogant lil shit scientist, i hope he gets what's coming to him :triumph:
