“Love Lies Bleeding” Review
The trailer for this went hard as hell and Katy O’Brian’s muscles sealed the deal for me, I loved her performance in The Mandalorian. Added to that, this is an A24 release and while I’ve not seen anything by Director Rose Glass before, if A24 believes in her, I’ll definitely give her a chance. I’m happy I did because this movie is so deliciously grounded in a gritty reality that when the special effects start, they’re at first alarmingly jarring, but in context of when and how they’re happening it’s well within the universe that Glass has created and didn’t distract from the film in the least. Kristen Stewart has been picking some captivating roles, I deeply enjoyed her in 2020’s “Underwater” and based on her comments on Colbert, I’m going to be enjoying her work for a while to come, which is going to include a movie that she’s directing herself!
