Emma stone locked in a basement, shaved bald, and covered in skin cream from the dollar store because she's an alien-- and that's the least insane part. You won't breathe the last 30 minutes

All kinds of freakish Victorian cosmetic surgery and eating disorder nonsense, and yet, everyone served face. Shout out to my girl she deserved better

Emma Stone freaking me out again with the BEST wig I've ever seen. Great costuming, great message-- just live a little and rob men why not

Freak x Freak. touches on topics of BDSM and self harm and yet, is portrayed so well and ends with a lovely relationship between the main characters. It never feels like an inauthentic love, these two are genuinely just little weirdos who found eacho...

Juliane Moore is great in every role but god is she disturbing in this one, ESPECIALLY the last line of the movie. Also I dreamed about that guy in the suit on the compound for like 2 weeks after watching
