What is wrong with these movies?

The first 10 minutes gave me hope. They basically called the plot of the last movie stupid (even though it's the same writer) and killed off a multi racial group wanting to carry it on. So, great, they said it's dumb and also killed 1 non-white person (more than the entire last movie).

Fantastic. The movie learnt and moved on from that terrible idea. Instead, they didn't and these deaths are actually a plot hole because the real killers supported the bad guys in the 5th movie so why would they kill their teammates?

Then we get the same awful new characters from the last movie at a party. The black girl with her Asian girlfriend trying to stop a Latino girl from going to bed with a white guy. They then rush to get their muscular black friend to come and beat him up for daring... speak to a Latino girl? I can only guess that's why but then he gets with her in the next scene so...was he jealous? So it's okay those two getting together but not the white guy? She's just as drunk as she was 10 minutes before. Then her sister Sam shows up and tasers him in the balls after the fight is over. Because, patriarchy I guess.

Mix in they introduce another white guy to have woman laugh at for not being attractive. I guess. They then condescend and make fun of him repeatedly and make a point that he's a pathetic virgin nerd and the big black guy is unironically called "chad". Like. Come on and yes they also point that out in the film. He's the punching bag for the entire movie, so much so you expect him to be heroic at the end but no, he's just a pathetic character because he's white.

Because they killed off Dewey in the last movie, they need to find a way to have a police connection in this one so bring Kirby back to life from Scream 4. She was one of the more fun characters in Scream 4 but here she has no personality whatsoever.

When people refer to Sam as psycho, they are just correct. She is a genuinely unlikeable character. That's true for all of them though. Her interactions with ghost face are smug, boastful, cocky but then at all other moments she's stupid. Even with dealing with basically anyone outside of her close friend group she's incredibly smug and condescending. It's not a good sign when I really hope all the heroes die.

The house party scene really didn't help when they were clearly trying to make out that the white guy with the Latino girl was rapey even as she repeatedly argued with them that she wanted to do it, but then it was fine for the black guy minutes later. If they wanted it to seem rapey they could have had him spike her drink but instead him and her just talked, decided to go to bed and then everyone decided to assault him as the girl got upset at them.

I did laugh when this movie randomly had ghostface just kill a bunch of white men in a bodega and then the movie forgot that happened one scene later where they claimed only two people had died so far when it was actually 6.

The twist was so obvious. Do you know why? White people. Yes. Seriously. That's literally the twist. Every white character except the legacy characters in the movie were evil killers. The tough Latino chicks then easily slaughter the white people and then slowly stab an old man to death in as painful a way as possible and smirk and gloat as they slowly torture him to death. Then they smile and cuddle as family.

Imagine being able to guess the killers simply because they're the only new white characters. That should tell you everything you need to know about the movie.

And then guess what? The movie ends the exact same way as 5. The two black twins who were both shown as heavily crippled and left for dead both survived and the movie just shrugs at why they're alive and the two latino chicks survive. The 2 legacy female characters lived.

It literally is the exact same ending as the last movie.

The writer clearly only knows how to write one ending, ignoring that this is just a rip off of Scream 2. It's nothing but annoying characters and hatred of white people. I was stunned when the two black twins just show up again at the end of the movie. I thought they'd actually been a bit different but no. The only non-white characters killed off in this out of 10+ were the random Asian killer at the start and the Asian girlfriend (who is immediately forgotten), I guess in Hollywood it's still okay to kill Asians.

It's weird to watch a movie that so deliberately dumps on its own fans repeatedly, seemingly forgetting this is the 5th movie in a franchise and people only know it exists because of that fact.

I had heard who one of the killers was already and their "research" to become the bad guy was to go on Reddit and 4chan to read people not liking the new Star Wars movies. And yes, both Reddit and 4chan and "the fans" are called out repeatly in this movie, looked down on for not liking intelligent horror movies enough and liking "dumb slasher movies", whilst being a dumb slasher movie. Imagine if your homework to become a serial killer was "check out people who don't like a movie", it's more than a little insulting.

For a movie that really seems to have a high opinion of itself and a low opinion of its fans, it's weird to see it be just another slasher movie but worse in nearly every way. Numerous fake jump scares that become so predictable I easily guessed when the actual one would come. Genuinely unlikeable characters compared to even the freakish characters of the 90s.

It has repeated speeches trying to mock people for caring about movies, whilst at the same time talking about how important certain movies are and pushing their own messages in the movie. They can't have it both ways.

I knew it was going to be a bumpy ride when they mentioned Terminator Dark Fates and Star Wars as good examples of relaunching series. Especially when they just make Dewey into Luke Skywalker, taking a legacy, well liked male character and turning them into a pathetic joke (but weirdly all the legacy female characters are doing great) but he's a drunken loser who got fired and lives in a trailer. They then kill him in a pathetic way. For a movie trying to be meta about the film industry, it follows nearly every checklist for a modern movie.

They also bring back another legacy male... Billy from the first one as a force ghost to help the main girl out. No. Seriously. The main serial killer from the original is brought back to talk about family legacies and to help guide his daughter to be the hero. It's actually kind of insane, they actually unironically made a Rey Palpatine for this franchise.

As many have said, it does feel like it falls heavily into the "woke" category. It feels very similar to the recent Velma series with it's attempts at meta humour generally aimed at its own potential fanbase. Not including the killers, there are 5 deaths in the movie. All 5 characters are white. The 2 killers? White. So 7 deaths, all white characters.

Outside of the returning heroines from the first 4 movies, the other characters are black twins (both attacked but survive without issue) and the two main girls are Latino (both attacked and survived.) Yes, that does mean out of 6 survivors, only 1 is a male but that's not that big a deal and it's why Scream is such a weird movie to have picked for this insane preaching and judgement. Scream has always been very female driven

It goes far past trying to be a diverse movie or having a subtle agenda. The movie is constantly screaming from its soapbox whilst also acting like you're stupid if you take anything away from movies. It really feels like the writer has a grudge and seeing he was the same writer of the well hated Amazing Spider Man and Independence Day Resurgence, it nearly makes sense.

I watched this as part of a Scream marathon, my first time seeing any of the movies and this one is easily the worst. 3 was bad enough and 4 had a lot of serious issues, but at no point did I want to skip chunks of them.

Boobs are pretty cool but they get boring pretty quick as we're on the fifth random generic woman. Once the boobs get boring though, what's there left in this movie?

The two returning characters from the first aren't recognisable. Press went from being a straight forward enough lead who had good intentions to jusy trying desperately to be cool in every scene. Laura's new turn in being totally cool with experimenting on a young girl is just mental.

The alien resistance level just went wild. In the first movie they can be killed by being set on fire or shot. Now they're totally immortal and will come back after having their head blown off. Until it's the end of the movie and they "die" from getting raped or introduced to human diseases (which they would have from just being on the planet).

The movie is just very rapey in general which does mean the tits really aren't very interesting.

The characters are just all stupid as well. The main bad guy escapes because they had one guard on him and he literally just jogs out of the base. The female alien then escapes by just kind of running out the door herself. No one then checks if she is actually dead, leaves no guards on her and somehow she's pregnant (whilst dead) and gives birth as the cliff hanger, whilst also hanging out with another alien no one noticed.

The chase scene through the mall was incredibly slow paced and just makes the characters look stupid as they accidentally miss the alien raping a woman to go annoy some teenagers having sex before the alien decides to stop and hand himself in.

The creature effects at the end were good but dated but the end fight was over in seconds so it's such a small part of the movie I can't give it praise.

You could easily cut 45 minutes of this and it'd push the movie up to maybe a 3 out of 10.

It's such a boring and simple premise but really takes itself far too seriously, really thinking it's saying something or that the plot is deeper than it thinks it is. The end scene of the alien ship landing is crazy because it is all wrapped up in less than 10 minutes and it was so unnecessary.

Suddenly overnight all of the world apart from a small area of Russia and a few other countries (never mentioned again and saved by Russia) in a perfect circle are wiped out. Everyone just suddenly drops dead and all power fails. The mystery might have been interesting if they actually did anything with it. Instead we get a mission into the dark lands where we get shown there is a super powered survivor immediately. We later learn that it's an alien who they shoot numerous times and he is fine. Just ignore later on that they kill aliens with single shots.

It turns out aliens want to take over earth so are wiping out humans. Pretty clichéd plan but this time they have surviving brain washed humans to attack the rest of humanity. Or maybe they don't since the aliens can mind control normal humans too so could easily just make them all kill themselves, well, except when they can't mind control them because plot armour. The alien power level changes so dramatically that it's crazy when they say humanity is a threat to them.

There's a lot of chest thumping, a lot of heroic soldiers willing to die for the motherland, each main male character is just kind of given a hot, weak female love interest to follow him around and be pointless except for at the end they get maternal and can't kill the alien children as they instantly wipe out the whole alien invasion but let the children live because.... I don't know, women are just mothers in Russia I guess. It's kind of surprising how much this reminded me of Flying Tigers, a blatant American propaganda movie from 1942 that I watched a few nights ago with how they interact with eachother and the women. That movie is 80 years old though.

Lotta people just seem to think this is good sci fi because it has decent special effects and vehicles (the first credit is thanking the Russian MOD) and also that it isn't woke or has a political message. Except it does, it's just military propaganda filled with strong selfless men being adored by hot women in purely support roles and a strong government trying to control the weak willed masses. Usually in these movies the government cracking down on protests would be hinted as bad but here it's not the case at all. It's very blatant propaganda. The VDV also feature as the elite special forces group which is pretty comical given the last year.

Any movie I can't sit through gets a 1 and I ended up fast forwarding through all the combat scenes because they were so repetitive and listening to the exposition dumps at 2x speed.

Full disclosure, I didn't finish it. I started skipping around from about the 30/40 minute mark.

It's an attempt at found footage, playing with the idea of this being a documentary filmed by a small camera crew stationed with a team of (mainly) Americans in a defensive base on the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan where the leftovers of giant alien creatures have retreated to after they lost their invasion.

The effects are passable at best and the set is pretty low budget looking but those aren't close to the issues of the movie. The characters are torture to sit through. It's like someone said "The characters in Generation Kill show a disfunctional side of the military, let me teenage son write his version of that." They're all trying so hard to be cool and edgy.

The story is pretty poor too. Thousands of aliens were left behind after the retreat but the aliens on earth have decided to just hang around and instead of evacuating when they get a chance at the end of the film, they get a weapons drop to try and keep mildly annoying the humans in this tiny area.

Because the world is so poorly explained, it is heavily suggested that this is the only place aliens are left on the planet but humanity doesn't care anymore. Instead of the humans going in and wiping them out, they just built outposts around them for no apparent reason. Since it's only in this tiny area between Pakistan and Afghanistan, most people have forgotten about the aliens (you know, despite the massive invasion) and the outposts are understaffed. How? Why? Are the military needed elsewhere? If this is the only threat how can they be understaffed when the entire planet is working together in a joint force? It's like saying the UN ran out for soldiers to cover a 50 mile area. They also just kind of won the war by developing a silly sci-fi magic bullet that somehow beats the heavies (even though normal explosives also kill them). That's it. They also claim that humanities air power easily beat the aliens...despite the aliens being interstellar beings. It's just hand waved away so humanity can easily win the war.

The story is just an excuse to let our gang of heroes be a rough and ragged group who don't play by the rules but are true heroes at heart because of their sacrifices outside the world's view. It screams teenage power fantasy.

Combat sequences are terribly done. The story is nothing. The characters are annoying. The effects are bland. Nothing to recommend.

Picked it up because I like a good obscure zombie movie and usually go in with pretty low expectations.

The thing about this particular movie is that it isn't bad. It's shot fine enough, it's acted fine enough, the effects are fine enough. For a low budget zombie movie shot in Africa it is pretty solid.

It's main issue is pacing. If it was 70 minutes or shorter it might have helped but the movie really falls into a pattern. Two main characters travel for awhile, stop to check for supplies and zombies appear very slowly. They leave. They travel for awhile then their car has an issue. They get out, zombies approach slowly, they fix the car and leave. Rinse and repeat.

Slow zombies are fine but I think these fall into the category of too slow, especially with the dramatic end reveal that the zombies have somehow overrun the world in seemingly a very short hand.

It's a very slow paced movie and slips right into being boring. The characters are too weak to carry the film. They're both quiet, serious men who are out to find their family. Outside of that they have no real personality and the lack of dialogue is meant to make it feel very serious and stark but it means they barely had any chance to build character.

The ending isn't the gut punch I think they wanted it to be, it just kind of happened. The zombies aren't really a threat at any point in the movie, so the idea that a US military base fell to them is just bizarre when two guys in a beat up car did pretty good against numerous groups. At times they can be surrounded and then just suddenly remember they can fight and instantly dispatch the zombies without any real issue.

The death of one of the two main characters was so poorly done I was assuming it was a dream. They decide to just go to sleep in the middle of nowhere, zombies stumble on them and attack. We see the main character get bitten instantly, there was no tension or suspense to see what happens, it's the first thing they show. It was so poorly done I was expecting it to be a dream because it was such a stupid way to just kill off one of only two characters in the movie. But no, if was real. For some reason they didn't sleep in shifts or sleep in a tree like they do later.

I never really disliked the movie outside of that one scene but I found myself checking my phone a lot especially during one of the many scenes of 5 zombies very slowly walking towards them from 100m away because I'd seen it so many times at that point.

Cut the run time down, have a set piece or two and have a few more characters then it'd have been something better.

This was a hard one to score.

I like a good old time war movie, usually not from the 1950s but I thought I'd give this one a shot because I like Mitchum as an actor. Both him and Kerr give solid performances but it's a movie that really does show its age in terms of story telling and stakes. It also really struggles with the old film trope of "women are dumb, weak, pathetic creatures who do nothing but cause trouble for strapping tough men".

It's a contrived story, a marine washes up on a seemingly deserted island after a mission goes sideways but finds that there is only a single other occupant on the entire island, a nun who just happens to be there because there was a single priest on the Island who she had come to help collect but then her boat left her behind. It was very forced to put them together but whatever, I can overlook that.

The biggest issue comes with how the movie had to create stakes. The Japanese suddenly land on the island and the two have to hide in a cave. They're fine to survive because he is able to catch fish... so immediately the stakes are reduced... well, too bad, the movie really shows its age because of course the nun can't eat raw fish because "it's yucky" so he has to sneak into the Japanese camp to steal traditional food for her. This leads to about 10 minutes of "suspense" as they pretend he'll get caught and then pretend he is killed, but we know full well that this isn't happening.

Well, that's sorted and now they have food. Luckily, literally the next day the Japanese just decide to leave the island, this is so they can go down into the camp that night and have a party, where he proposes to her, gets rejected, gets drunk and insults her and... well, it shows it's age again because the nun gets upset, runs into a typhoon, falls over and goes to sleep so she can get sick by the time he finds her the next day... just as the Japanese re-invade the island for no reason. He then has to get her to safety, then sneak into the Japanese camp again to get supplies to cure her...again. The only time this guy has any interactions with the Japanese is getting supplies for her.

It's just so contrived. You know full well that they only had the Japanese leave for that 1 night so they could have a party and relax. And anytime there was any difficulty for the characters to overcome, it was because the nun is just the 1950s stupid weak woman trope who can't eat food 'like a man' and is overly emotional and runs into a typhoon to cry because a man was mean to her so she gets sick. Both of those two scenes lead to the only war aspects of the movie.

It was nice that it was shot on an actual island. It was cool that they got the actual USMC into the movie as extras. Both performances were good for the material. The way he disarms the enemy cannons at the end was unique however in real life there would have been people huddled by the guns and the breach doors wouldn't just fall off with a mild tug. They also wouldn't be on the beach either but whatever. The problem is entirely based on the fake drama, the really bad writing where the woman is more of an enemy than the entire Japanese marine force on the island and the contrivances.

So, young girl moves to LA, moves to a new apartment and everything is weird there. There's a very obvious red herring character and I think we're meant to be surprised when it turns out the "nice" but obviously stalkerish guy is one of the main bad guys. It wasn't shocking. They tried to build it up but it was pretty obvious.

She's moved into a cult that live in a small apartment complex. They kidnap her and torture her because...she brought a cat in? Or maybe they were going to do it anyway? Movie never really explains.

The cult is just one of those magic "don't think about this, they're all powerful" kind of cults. They make her cease to exist to the outside world, close all her bank accounts, somehow end all her friendships (they never explain how) and you're just meant to believe this. They even talk about having gone through all her email systems. I don't know how, somehow that's just something these random weirdoes can do. It'd be so easy to explain away but they don't even bother.

She's kept in her bedroom for just over a month where she has to keep a "stress position" which is the least stressful position I have ever seen. She just has to lean against the wall with her hands on the wall. That's it. The movie however in no way shows the passage of time. I only noticed she was there for over a month because I decided to keep track of the days shown on the CCTV footage (only shown 2 times during this) the first being the 9th of March and the last day being the 16th of April. At some point (because of how poorly they show the passage of time) she gets basically crucified, it seems like it was just the last day but since they don't show passage of time I have no idea. They don't show any passage of time on her physically either. She isn't fed, she just gets a smoothie once a day...twice...who knows since they don't show? But she loses no weight, her skin tone is still tanned and healthy, she has bags under her eyes for only one scene once and then not again after. When she's crucified she barely even reacts, her hair is still perfectly well kept, eye brows still neatly trimmed, lips still perfectly moisturised. There is no hint this girl just got tortured for 5 weeks.

She then mysteriously passes the test and is allowed more freedom and is shown that apparently everyone has to go through that by another person showing her the same crucifixion scars. The movie then forgets that point and 99% of the time you see hands, there are no scars, including on the main girl.

She is then kept hostage for another 4 months where she...just kinda sits in her room reading a book and sometimes helping at their homeschool for the 9 kids who never appear outside the homeschool scenes. It's not tense or interesting. It's just incredibly boring. It's either scenes of a quiet monologue over scenes of her eating dinner or sitting in the homeschool, or its scenes of her very passively talking as she is interviewed.

The only way of keeping track of time is awful, you don't see days passing, you don't see any change in the main girl. It is all based on the CCTV date. She is shown captured on 9.3.19, is crucified or freed 16.4.19, is shown getting more freedom 8.7.19 and then later still is given the job of watching the CCTV where it is 2.9.19. Then she is forced into marriage on the 11th of October but her dad also finally shows up to look for her...7 months after she was kidnapped. First time he sees her he is stunned and says "What happened to you?" like there's a physical change, there isn't.

The marriage thing is hilarious. She finally seems happy enough to join the cult BUT they try and make her marry the weird ugly guy instead of the young hot soldier so she doesn't want to be in the cult anymore. It's so funny. It comes across as so shallow and so stupid after 7 months of being held hostage and apparently going crazy enough to join the cult, she's like "Ew that guys weird, I want to leave" It ruined the whole build up they attempted.

It doesn't even make sense why the cult did it. Want to put the two 20ish year old hotties together who spent the most time together? Hell no. Put her with the weirdo, deformed 40 year old who we had to cut the ears and eyes out off because he keeps trying to escape lol

The ending is embarrassingly bad, somehow both incredibly slow and incredibly rushed at once. 1st December suddenly hits, it's the next open day for her old apartment. Her "friend" she hung out with once at the start shows up. Instantly moves in, next scene is them somehow them in her Facebook account posting "I do not want to talk to anyone anymore. Good bye" and apparently that's enough to make no one worried about her. Next scene she's held captive and despite her attacking everyone who goes in, they send in main girl who after talking to her for 20 seconds is immediately rebellious again, kills the leader after the friend is killed, steals his gun and then just kind of...leaves. Like, very slowly. There are dozens of times for them to stop her or shoot her or anything but no one does. She just kind of leaves the building and then stands in the street outside celebrating being free but then it's revealed the cult exist in every apartment complex and then she just runs down the street. That's it.

It's so bad. I watch a lot of really bad movies but this was just so awful. None of the characters were interesting or likeable or anything. None of the "torture" was effective. The numerous time skips would be missed by anyone not paying attention specifically to the time on the CCTV which is often only shown for seconds at a time.

It's weird when I look back at the movie, I suddenly realise there weren't very many actual action moments. There's a fairly big one about 15 minutes in but that's about it until after the hour mark and then a biggish one near the end. I genuinely have no idea why this movie is so long apart from it needed to be to provide lip service to both Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger separately.

Linda at times is totally fine but I'm other ways her character has been ruined. She's an incredibly tough capable woman so them forcing her to rant about how "You're just a woman, you're not a threat, the MAN you give birth to is all that matters!" It doesn't make sense from her when she is so strong and heroic through all the movies.

The action sequences are so CGI heavy and honestly repetitive. The super advanced terminator is meant to be all scary but it routinely gets beaten up in hand to hand combat by either Arnie or the new hero Grace. It only seems to be deadly when fighting police or border agents.

Grace is tall enough to be at least a bit imposing and she's an alright actor and fine with the limited stunts she does but the biggest issue is her character is unlikeable. She's argumentative, overly aggressive, happy to murder normal people and gets lots murdered without issue. It's weird seeing the "human" character be less human than Arnie in T2. She is so overpowered they literally had to give her a limiter that sometimes she gets too hot and has to cool down.

At this point in the franchise, a full reboot would be better than this. By getting rid of John Connor and replacing him with Dani (our tiny, annoying Mexican saviour who don't need no man *finger snap*) it just feels like it's barely even the same franchise. John Connor is as much a recurring character than Arnie as the Terminator. Now we have Dani, who just is poorly acted and poorly written. People liked John because in T1 he wasn't even born. T2 he was a young kid and you saw him bond with the Terminator to make him a good "person". T3 wasn't great. Salvation had John as a competent leader. Gen is...awful and no one considers it canon, not even this movie. Instead of that slow growth as a character, we just get Dani who is already amazing at everything, super brave, super smart, super everything. It's not interesting and it is clearly only there as a "Women do it better" story. I feel if they wanted to do it, just making a new franchise would have been better than getting rid of John and getting rid of Skynet but still keeping it the same continuity, especially since it made everyone's sacrifice pointless since a new Skynet just immediately popped up instead.

They can't even get their own timeline working right. At the end of the movie, Dani goes to see Grace as a kid (she just somehow knows where she is and who she is as a kid despite never even getting her full name). Grace also has a little brother who I don't think was ever mentioned in the flash forwards. But the problem is, they found a child actress who looks a lot like adult Grace...so Dani sees her she's like 8 years old. When the apocalypse hits in about 5 years, she's 8. When she survives for "a few years" before being found by the resistance... She's 8. To make a sappy ending to the movie, they ruin their own continuity so now it looks like Grace just doesn't age and stayed 8 for about a decade before suddenly aging 25 years overnight.

This is an anthology movie, not an actual movie. It's 4 different short films connected based on the overall story of "Alien portals suddenly appear on Earth".

They are all terrible but hilariously they each had potential in their own way but each totally botch their stories. The first "opening" I wouldn't count as a movie. It's about a minute long of very generic 911 calls. "There's something strange." "My neighbour is walking towards some weird thing" etc. Very generic and very boring. There's also an interconnecting voice over by a radio DJ who explains all the exposition...which usually is then fully repeated in the next scene anyway.

1. Is based on an interesting concept. It's during the "invasion' part of the story. A group of kids are in a test when suddenly the invasion starts with all their phones locked in a cupboard. All the phones start ringing one after the other. You can hear sirens going off in the distance. Helicopters. Military jets screaming by overhead. The teacher refuses to let them answer their ringing phones and it's interesting...but then it keeps going. And keeps going. Eventually the teacher leaves them and you think that's it... Then it keeps going. The whole plot suddenly is about an emo girl who...I think it's non-binary? Trans? They never confirm it. They just get upset at being called a girl...so upset that they murder two people. Well, this after first attempting to commit suicide by jumping into a portal that appears outside their classroom. If feels like they were trying to be pro-LGBT but they really fumbled the ball by both showing that the kid wants to commit suicide for being trans and then murdering two people for misgendering them. Also sexually assaults a girl before killing the two people. It's incredibly weird.

2. An interesting but stupider idea. It is weeks after the invasion. Millions of these alien portals(called "doors") have opened. Millions of people are gone and only a few have mysteriously returned (this is never covered again). So all the nations want to study the doors so are now sending volunteers into the doors, even though the millions of people who went in only a handful returned and were "different". This is the most "artsy" of the shorts. Characters stand and stare at rocks and read poetry in their inner monologues. The three "knockers" finally go into one of the doors, the three immediately separate so each of them can have a "vision". It's a couple and some random guy though, so his vision seems totally pointless because we know nothing about him. We keep following the girl until eventually she stumbled on her boyfriend's vision where there are 3 copies of him. She deliberately kills her boyfriend so she can spend time with one of the copies she prefers inside the "door".

3. A guy finds a portal in the woods. Learns to talk to it in 4 days with a speaker system even though the whole world couldn't in 100 days. Becomes friends with it. Invites the girl he has a crush on to look at it, she for some reason brings her boyfriend and that makes him sad. The boyfriend calls the cops for him not declaring the portal, cop shows up, just randomly goes crazy and shoots people then the portal snaps his neck because suddenly they have telekinetic powers. I think it's meant to be an anti-police section but it comes out of nowhere and goes away within seconds.

4. The radio DJ I mentioned earlier is a full blown conspiracy theorist. Invites a Doctor onto his podcast to talk about it and the performance of the Doctor is a highlight as the worst thing I've ever seen. He's meant to have gone insane. It's just mesmerising with how bad it is. The Doctor then scolds the DJ for being a conspiracy theorist and exploiting people for views and then mind controls him out of nowhere and makes him strip. Then the movie ends.

It's such a bizarrely bad movie. It's not funny. It's tonally all over the place because of the different directors managing the different shorts.

Oddly the one theme I saw was cuckolding. First part, the "girl" is upset the "hot girl" she wants is with the only male. The only male then gets upset when the "girl" kisses his possible girlfriend and seems to let it happen. The second, the girlfriend knowingly kills her boyfriend to live with a better hallucinated version of him. The third the man invites his crush to see his portal and she brings her boyfriend which makes him depressed. Then when he gets closer to her, the boyfriend reports them to the police.

It's a weird through line.
