BEWARE: This is a TRANS movie


The trailer does a good job of hiding it. Be warned and don't waste your money.

What if we like trans movies though?

reply

There aren't any pre-pubescent girls in this one, so you probably won't like it.

reply

This made me laugh. Most of my favourite films do not have pre-pubescent girls in them.

reply

Maybe I'm being dense but what exactly is "trans" about it? Do you mean the cast?


:edit: Oh the director and a few of the cast are trans. I'll be skipping this then.

reply

Yuck. Thanks for the warning -- premise looked interesting but even from the trailer it gave off some strong rainbow vibes, so will definitely be skipping this one.

reply

sort of, but set in 90s, main girl is gay but placeholder for trans

Posters on Reddit who saw the film confirm this:

"I’ve heard it described as a trans I’m Thinking of Ending Things... after seeing the director Q&A, its clear it was made specifically to resonate with the trans experience"

"having seen it the trailers are super misleading. I don't even know why they are calling it a horror movie. All I say is that I think a lot of people are going to HATE it.'

reply

its not a horror film, don't think it fits a genre, its seems to be about loneliness and not fitting in

Is this movie a trans hypnosis rogue operation being carried out by ANTIFA? Does the process of your TV glowing implant queer musings within your brain that make you want to pump yourself full of estrogen and chop off your ding-a-ling?

Be careful folks. Watching this movie could make you trans!
