Day 15 of Rammstein's Countdown to Halloween

Tonight, it's M3GAN (2023, dir. Gerard Johnstone)

Plot: A brilliant roboticist builds a form of artificial intelligence programmed to be a child's best friend. However, when a put in the hands of an 8 year old girl, unexpected events begin to arise.

Okay, I'm not gonna lie to you, I lost my mind when I first seen the trailer and seen the dancing robot, I really thought it was a joke that was taking itself too seriously. So I didn't have high expectations diving into it, however, it managed to surpass my expectations. I actually really liked it.

The acting is not to bad and the facts are really good and I say the first impressing thing about it.

MEGAN within herself is actually a pretty interesting character and if they ever make more movie (which I wouldn't mind) she could definitely be a slasher. To be honest, she kind of gives me Angela Baker (Sleepaway Camp) vibes which was interesting and I mean she kind of has the same personality as Baker when she's older in the other Sleepaway Camp movies.

MEGAN is also just fucking cool.

The story is new fresh, and honestly it almost reads as a goosebumps tale a lot and I should of expected such greatness especially since this also came from the mind of James Wan who co created Saw.

The themes of trauma bonding , explotation, how important human connections are, the scary reality of artificial intelligence and how both of those collide with both pros and cons. It's well thought out.

The Cinematography is beautiful and I really enjoy the colours of the film, how bright it was and everything. I honestly really love bright colored/daylight horror films cause it just feels more realistic and it's always a concept that is still not explored for some reason in horror when is insane cause I feel it's more effective in some way.

I should also mention that I really loved the soundtrack for this film. I'm a big sound track girl , for me it helps move the story a lot.

The film has a perfect balance of humour, action and heartwarming scenes and its definitely a fun watch. Highly highly recommend if you are looking for a racing fun horror film.
