Baskin (2015)

Had its moments, but not really my bag overall. Lots of filler - felt like you could easily skip the first 20min without missing much of anything - but once it got going there were some really horrific moments. Kind of devolves into "torture porn" by the end, which I typically find pretty dull.

Loved the atmosphere though. Nightmarish and surreal...real Lovecraft vibe going on. Great use of colour too. Aesthetically it felt like the middle ground between Fulci and Argento, which I was really into - I just wish there'd been a little more focus on plot.
