Asteroid chronicles the journey of Spencer Coleman and his family from the “big city” to a house on the outskirts of his hometown. The film anticipates the fragmentations of emerging modernism and blends humor with social satire while highlighting a life based on procrastination and avoidance. And there's an Asteroid coming!

The Ugly Stepsister (2025)

Follows Elvira as she battles against her gorgeous stepsister in a realm where beauty reigns supreme. She resorts to extreme measures to captivate the prince, amidst a ruthless competition for physical perfection.


Apologies if this is not the community for a thread like this, I don't frequent this community as much as I should (considering the volume of movies I watch lol). But I just saw The Ugly Stepsister in theaters and I'm dying to talk about it.

I'm curious if any of you have seen it yet. It's still in theaters and looks like it's going to be fairly niche, I'm sure in no small part due to it being foreign. I definitely recommend it, I found it to be a fun spin on the classic Cinderella story that we get from the likes of Disney and a lot more faithful to the source.

Definitely not for those who are squeamish, but to be honest I found the body horror to not be over the top (unlike The Terrifier 2 lol). The scenes that were there definitely further the story and help with characterization, showing the absolute abuse that Rebekka is willing to put her children through just for some money.

I really liked the juxtaposition between Agnes, with her "effortless beauty" and going after the Prince seemingly for spite, and Elvira, who we obviously see undergo massive treatment to ascertain "beauty" and wanting the Prince her whole life.

Curious to hear anyone else's thoughts on it. I found it reminiscent of The Substance, both for the body horror and themes centering on physical beauty, as well as a LVT film with the dark and depressing feeling that it left me with 🤣

It's not a recent flick but I just wanna share my review –

I finished it minutes ago. The 1st 20 min are so boring. Here are what spurred me to finish it.

  1. Spielberg directed it.
  2. It was loosely based on his childhood.

The post, Bridge of spies and Saving Private Ryan's opening are 👍 so I hoped The Fabelmans was 👍 too. It was entertaining but not great. OK plot.

👍 acting. I can write about 3 paragraphs re the top cast's acting but I don't wanna make this too long. I'll just highlight Sam Rechner, who didn't play the cliched bully. It seemed Logan Hall had an internal issue. Bullying, having that high school quarterback aura, then his conscience tapping him due to his bullying, then getting upset; it can easily get cringe. But Rechner's acting wasn't cringe. Great job.

Just stumbled upon this 17-min film by David Lynch on Netflix and I think it's the closest I'll ever be to tripping on acid.

I feel like there's some kind of punchline or meaning that I'm missing, but maybe it's just absurdits for its own sake.

Thoughts on this film?
