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.

Seen in 2018 (388 movies items)"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. "

Movies the giraffe watched in 2018: June (27 movies items)"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.
