It Comes at Night was ambiguous?



maybe not for you or me. and I’m not saying you’re wrong because you can argue this isn’t ambiguous. but ‘it’ never comes. ‘It’ isn’t a physical entity. I think ‘It’ is paranoia or just fear. Because we know there’s some kind of disease/sickness but don’t know much about it or why the world is the way it is. I mean for all we know, the characters don’t know more than we do but they actually do flirt with their being a ‘physical’ threat in the woods in a couple of scenes but again I think it’s the manifestation of paranoia. the director even wanted this to be the effect, it’s up to us to make up our minds. And for a wide release movie to require its audience to fill in the blanks on that level is asking a lot for a mainstream audience. so yes I would say it’s on the ambiguous side of things, comparatively

I saw Thom live yesterday. He was great but played a lot of weird stuff not on his main albums and only the t/t from this:

Yeah, I bought tickets at the last minute especially to hear this album. I was a Little disappointed to only hear one song, but, like you said, it was a great show. The crowd was on its feet all night.

This doesn't really remind me of Radiohead, it's an excellent horror soundtrack that adds so much atmosphere and creepiness to the film. The vocal songs are also some of his best solo songs.



Twig: yea I would've liked to hear more from this but at least we got the t/t.

DarkSideOfLucca makes a good point



Not here and not about this album - but I’m sure on another thread on Sput he makes a good point

I know this is the most eyeroll-inducing sentence ever written but this is really not a horror movie in any typical way



like idk if he expected Thom Yorke to drop some ear-shattering BWAAAAS for the soundtrack to some slasher movie but that is not what this is supposed to be

I haven’t seen the film but I got the feeling it would be closer to Black Swan than The Evil Dead

I dunno, I thought it was a bit directionless, subplots were so disconnected and unnecessary, the reveal at the end was just not good writing, pacing was awful, etc.



And I love arthouse horror films.



Also you don't need the "whaams" to have a creepy score, dude. I just don't feel that this fits with the tone at all, but I know other people love it. To me, it feels like Thom Yorke doing his own thing and he just slapped the "Suspiria" title on it.

There were moments that were incredibly well directed, I should have included that. Individual scenes were amazing, but for me the whole didn't work. I'm jealous of you guys, I really wanted to love this film. I was incredibly excited for it for like almost a year.
