The Mirror - Talk to the Hand ("Talk to Me" - 2022)
Welcome to The Violet Vulture!
The Mirror is my bonus mini-series that acts as a vessel for how I review - and refuse to rate - horror movies. You will find no "1 or 4-star reviews" here because I stand by horror not being something you can whittle down to some uniform scale. Each one is a spooky snowflake that ought to be judged on its own merits. The Mirror will be shorter episodes that will be spoiler-free.
TLDR: Think of The Mirror as a spooky little amuse-bouche for the discerning ghouls.
And for this one, we're talking about a movie with so much hype and promises that it's the scariest movie in 20 years: Talk to Me (2022). What are the elements? What's the vibe? We get into who I think will dig the movie (fellow lapsed Catholics, prepare your bodies and souls), a rundown of who might not dig it, and the flavor profile of this visceral, gritty piece of work from these debut directors. Did these Twin Youtubers-turned-horror directors deliver? Stay tuned for the dish.
Thanks for tunin' in, and see you on the other side.
