I am itching to re-watch Ari Aster’s “Midsommar” next week. Mostly because the first time around I was expecting something in the same vein as “Hereditary” but ended up getting a horror-comedy ode to the end of a relationship. It turns into heady stuff, but I’m confident that I may like it a bit more the second time around (you can take a look at my B scoring review from last week). Then again, its blatant similarities to “Wicker Man” did irk me … the movie does have familiar narrative beats, which render it less original than it thinks it is. In other words, it’s not as singular-feeling as “Hereditary.” Regardless, the movie is splitting critics with a 74 Metacritic score.

Still no distributor for "Bucking Fastard," "Alpha Gang," "The Last Photograph," "Closing Night," and "The Life and Deaths of Wilson Shedd." The issue seems to be quality more than a lack of willingness to buy.
