Stoker ..
You have here a visionary tale that tended masterfully to every facet of film. Spellbinding source music soaked into a high - saturation canvas, framed so you can feel the psychosis of the characters, often released in the intentional chaos of expertly executed angles.
A "hands on" type of film, but not without the depth to let your own imagination explore the subject matter's malleable pathos. Movies succeed when they silence the critical voice in your own head, when they reel you in completely, enslaving you. When a movie is your master it can do anything to you, as this one does. The twist is both the diabolical and disturbing type you will not soon extricate, as it will likely permeate and fester in your consciousness and conversation. Not for the faint of heart or easily nauseated.
The movie, however, is beautiful, and India is a heroine in every sense of the world. It bares supernatural undertones without unraveling in that particular industry. In the film's center focus are bold and traditional concepts of sexual repression, nature vs. nurture, and the inextricable bonds of beauty, blood and earth.
Ultimately both mind-blowing and bending with a wholly original deliverance, films like Stoker only pass through the cinemas once or twice a year, if that. Don't miss it. The acting is seamless. The ending is absolutely killer.
