    Is there ever a time when Hollywood isn’t desperate these days? It’s the first word that comes to mind to describe it.

      It’s probably to avoid spoilers. I just got out, I thought it was pretty good. The music and soundtrack is amazing and it has one of the better representations of music being our closest connection to magic on screen. The overarching theme is white culture assimilating black culture by the use of vampirism as a metaphor.

      We have watched it twice, going again next Saturday with a different set of friends.

      Best movie of 2025 thus far.

      Music is unbelievable good.

      My favorite piece was the one the vampires sang out in the field. It was full of longing and then ecstasy-- excellent juxtapose with the blues with its sorrowful lyrics yet intoxicating rhythms.

      Amazing.

      Sometimes it’s the experience. Not the details. It’s a period vampire film. That’s all you need to know from trailers.

      Go see it and enjoy.
