a little more flesh (2020) review, should be a treat if you like it when i'm mean: https://solflo.neocities.org/artlog/marrow/18-moreflesh

The concept of an abusive director's commentary as a horror framing device is so cool I'm sad that the movie squanders it, because I think playing it more subtle and just letting the viewer slowly realize the realities of the abuse that went on during the production would be really creepy and unique, but from your review the actual movie sounds kinda dogshit LOL

yeah exactly! it seems like the movie is terribly afraid of being misunderstood almost, like the criticism would go over our heads if it was too subtle or something. idk i keep thinking about something like creep where for a significant portion of the movie the vibe is just off but there's no immediate threat. makes the movie much more tense and the violence more impactful imo

interesting article, though imo it feels like the author started from the hypothesis and hunted for examples that kinda fit... in any case, i think the issue with a little more flesh is actually closer to fiction written by twitter authors: the heavy-handedness seems to come from a fear of "being cancelled" (paired with just plain bad craft).

i think it shows in comparison with the substance, a movie that's very clear about its theme (textually anyway, i have thoughts on that movie) because it wants to be sure we get it. i think with more flesh it feels the need to signal to the audience that the author knows abuse is bad. it's not just overexplaining the story, but also what the author thinks about it

what does the phrase "metafictional porn" even mean? take my hand. we'll find out together with my new short story ^_^ https://solflo.neocities.org/fiction/metafictionalporn.html
