The Lighthouse (2019)
BRILLIANT! Robert Eggers's best...but bring subtitles and brain.

Intense, philosophical, disturbing. Deeply all that. It is an arthouse film with Shakespearean dialogue. It's 10 minutes too long but it's very rewarding at the end. There is some mythology that you need to know about to understand the end better but you can just enjoy the abstractions and google it afterward. The horror of this film is the feeling of disturbance. This is not a film designed to make you feel proud of not being scared of cheap jumpscares, there are no jumpscares.
You went mad due to complete isolation on an island with only one person around, an insufferable authority figure. Do you think they will come and save you? How long have you been on this island, do you know?
