Watched at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival.
Destined to be loved or absolutely hated, director Amanda Kramer has crafted a strange and surreal experience about a literal chair that pays homage to both David Lynch and John Waters approach in strange direction approaches and deadpan atmospheres.
Kramer seems to understand the absurd nature within her works. Crafting strange dialogue that is both intentional and unintentionally bad and weird presentations of the mass. With all the performances being kind of purposefully bad and how strange the writing, dialogue and atmosphere is, I kind of liked it. I mean, how can one person write a story about a literal chair, and make it as weird, deadpan and out there in this world? Very few people can do that and I give props for Kramer to actually make it happen.
Of course, it's kind of repetitive. Especially with how the weirdness does run itself through the well, the structure being slow, and just how bizarre things are. It's more of experience rather than a narrative feature really. Almost feeling like a meme posting movie rather than an actual movie.
But...it's interesting.
