Saw The Killing of a Sacred Deer last night (Sunday).

Absolutely stunning. Lots of food for thought here. I've never studied Greek mythology but I can spot a hint like name dropping Iphigenia. I wouldn't have connected the Deer otherwise.

Reminded me of watching movies like Irreversible or Eraserhead for the first time - not least because of the stilted conversation style which is a landmark feature of Lynch's films. I loved how the off-kilter camera angles add to the feeling of unease too.
