What a glorious mess this is! The Lure takes the familiar story of The Little Mermaid and presents it as a horror-musical set in 1980s Poland. If that sounds an exercise you’re willing to endure, and I really hope that you are, then you’ll find a lot to enjoy in The Lure, even when it doesn’t all work. The wild ambition on display here is more than enough to overpower its structural an... read more

Description: This genre-defying horror-musical mash-up—the bold debut of Polish director Agnieszka Smoczyńska—follows a pair of carnivorous mermaid sisters drawn ashore to explore life on land in an alternate 1980s Poland. Their tantalizing siren songs and otherworldly auras make them overnight sensations as nightclub singers in the half-glam, half-decrepit world of Smoczyńska’s imagining. The director gives fierce teeth to her viscerally sensual, darkly feminist twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid,” in which the girls’ bond is tested and their survival threatened after one sister falls for a human.

"Visually great looking film. The musicals aren't really my thing and I was expecting this to be more horror movie than musical. It was the other way around so I was bored most of the runtime and later on had kind of a hard time staying awake. "

"First viewing - June 23rd I stopped into the library to pick up some older films because there's far too many recent ones on this list, but when I spotted The Lure I had to pick it up too. I've seen quite a bit of praise for it, so I was hoping I could back that up & maybe have a new, under-the-radar favorite. Well, not so much.
