Caviar (2023)
Truly unique and terrifying
It was honestly one of the most effective pieces of horror I've seen, it really masterfully outlined the terror of deepfakes and how seeking the truth is used against people to warp their perception of reality. The suspense was masterful and the payout was of top tier fever dream quality, with my alarm bells and uncanny valley going off the entire time in my head. I was asking questions the whole movie, most of which were left to speculation, which added to the impact of the film and left me seriously questioning whether I had just watched a piece of trauma induced brainwashing or a just super effective piece of satirical horror, but learning how small the movie is and how low the ratings are put that questioning to rest. Wonderful job, I hope they keep making movies and can't wait to see what they do in the future. It's amazing what can be accomplished on such a low budget. I want to go into a deep-dive analysis of it but I'm honestly scared to watch it again. I can see how the movie wouldn't be for everyone, but that's okay because I think the people who it is for can really enjoy and appreciate the creativity, symbolism, message, and necessarily muddy story of this work of cinematic art.
