Osgood Perkin‘ monkey The moment the first trailer landed, it immediately became a must-see. It is so bloody and terrifying that it is hard not to consider it as a terrible but interesting celebration of death. At a point, it was the highlight of the looney tunes splatter. Imagine that Wiley Coyote finally blows up the annoying passerby, only soaking his blood in the blood of his enemies. monkey There are several kinds of death incidents, most of which are ridiculous supernatural murders made by a creepy drumming monkey laughing.
Now, the acclaimed box office hit rate (makes $50 million on a $10 million budget) is finally becoming VOD. It is available for purchase on Prime for $24.99. If this is the first time you’ve heard of this movie, then the story comes after the Twin Brothers (both Theo James) When they are shocked by a punching toy monkey playing a small drum, they declare someone’s death.
This movie is based in 1980 Stephen King Short stories of the same name, but they are completely different. The movie version places more emphasis on comedy, while the short story becomes weirder and crueler due to the random nature of the killing. Perkins’ adaptation is more fanatical than the King’s original work, and the original monkey makes the toy monkey’s existence more constant, oppressing the twins in a different but equally sinister way. Both versions are worth a look, even if just admiring how different the endings of each version are from the other. In a sense, they feel like two completely different stories, with the same interest, namely death.
Just like the movies before Perkins Long legs,,,,, monkey The more times you watch it. The setup for each death is so complex that it invites exploration of elements in each scene that either fail or achieves chaotic results. exist Long legsrepeated viewing will allow you to further witness the shadow of the demon, which entangles the main character in the key scenes. This may be a subtle telling sprinkle, which may suggest the biggest secret of the story and whether we can trust the overflowing answer.
This has become Perkins’ signature quality. Another previous movie, Daughter in black (2015), watch repeatedly, as the demonic shadows lurk in the background as well. monkey Keep doing this, but another way. This is a detail.
As our review of the movie points out, there are some problems with the tone, not every joke. But it’s a powerful reason to be one of the most interesting horror movies ever when the movie runs on all cylinders. You’ll laugh at the horrible things, but I bet what’s really left here is the toy monkey and its ungodly smile. It seems like he always likes his job and you can’t help but try to understand it. Now you can do this by re-watching or experiencing it for the first time. I hope you come out of the movie and know not to touch, play, or even lock your eyes with a toy, and look like you are waiting for an excuse to do some evil shit.
