Yeah I'm not too proud that even in hindsight I'm certain I missed about half of what it was trying to show me, but for what I was following it had that very gripping "detextive" feeling on me where I would see the next thing and my theories went 📉, and I'm just uttering quietly ^^"what ^^the ^^fuuuuuuuuuu"

It was unnerving because of the questions I was asking myself, how deep does this go? What do they want? Is it real? Is it really real or just real? Is he in it already? Wait, who can he trust? Wtf is going on?

Wrongness is a good word. Anything in particular you recall having liked significantly from the movie?

I liked how everything felt BIGGER than what was going on. Like there were layers upon layers of that wrongness. Every time we think its something simple like a cult, we discover the next layer of a higher power in charge of everything.

It was almost lovecraftian with the sense of this otherworldly essence controlling this man's fate...

Yeah that's how I felt, like a practice or religion that has always been, as in, always.
