Appendage (2023)
7/10
People struggling mentally will appreciate this movie
24 December 2023
I suffer with depression and anxiety and self esteem issues and etc etc, so the lesson of accepting how you feel and just treating yourself kindly is one you learn to be able to cope with these issues, and this movie does a great job of giving us a visual representation of this idea with a fun horror flare.

It has funny moments, gross moments and many relatable moments. It's not particularly scary, it's more of a bizarre fever dream kind of experience.

Either way: Would I watch this again? Yes.

Would I recommend it? Yes, to those who aren't too serious or can't suspend belief.

Will you miss anything by skipping this movie? I'll conservatively say yes, it has a fun twist and could help people who have yet to learn how to handle mental and emotional troubles.

Characters? They were all fine I thought, no one too annoying or anything. My only huge peeve was the main character taking what felt like forever to go to the doctor about the nasty thing developing on her side XD

Was it interesting? Yes, I thought it was. Nothing wild, but enough to enjoy.

Thought provoking? Yes, definitely a window to our modern stresses and how we neglect those injuries.

I liked it.
