While I'm sure there is a vocal minority that call it overrated and boring, few can deny just how much the film stood out from almost every horror film (besides UNDER THE SKIN) in the decade preceding it, and it was a harbinger of a new generation of fresh psychologically and philosophically thrilling genre releases - many of which emerged from the same A24 production studio. Making a follow up to 2015's THE VVITCH would be no enviable task.
I'll let his upcoming performance in THE BATMAN determine whether he'll go the way of Christian Bale or remain a respectably pretentious art-house obscurities-only darling. You will notice from a lot of write-ups that he has been declared "one of the greatest actors of his generation" after his performance in Robert Eggers' THE LIGHTHOUSE, and I have no intention of denying him of the title. If you've ever lusted after seeing your favorite fantasy vampire boyfriend Edward's pale buttocks, have I got a movie for you! I know his presence in Stephanie Meyers' supernatural teensploitation franchise is ancient history at this point, but I think it's important to recall Robert Pattinson's humble beginnings, especially considering how far he's come along in the world of cinema.
