Freaks

            This week for the Movie Monday feature, I’m reviewing the dramatic mystery film, Freaks. This movie came out in 2018, it has a running time of 1 hour and 45 minutes. It is rated R for the following reasons: moderate violence & gore, moderate profanity, and moderate frightening/intense scenes. Starring in this film are Emile Hirsch, Bruce Dern, and Grace Park. The following plot overview is provided from IMDB: A bold girl discovers a bizarre, threatening, and mysterious new world beyond her front door after she escapes her father’s protective and paranoid control.

            I went through a lot of emotions while watching this movie. I dislike when someone manipulates or lies to a child, so throughout this movie was I frustrated with that theme. However, given all the information I have at the end of the movie, I can understand and empathize with why it happened. I liked the movie, it wasn’t great, but it was bad. I say give it a chance if Netflix suggests it to you.

            I give this film 3.5 out of 5 stars.

            Tomorrow for the TV Tuesday feature, I’m reviewing the dramatic horror series, American Horror Story. Next week for the Movie Monday feature, I’m reviewing the children’s animated film, The Secret Life of Pets 2. Until then keep seizing the cinema; Nerd out!
