Yorgos Lanthimos' "The Killing of a Sacred Deer" (2017) is a nightmare that feels like a Franz Kafka novella brought to life!

Anyone who has ever read literary work by Franz Kafka, be it the Metamorphosis, The Trial or some of his parables knows the feeling of complete powerlessness, like in a nightmare.Yorgos Lanthimos captures the same feeling. He starts a situation, lets it get weird, and then makes the viewer feel so uncomfortable and distressed. And the he hunts the viewer from one haunting setting to another, while always increasing the stakes and the sense of evil/danger.Some of the scenes are legitimately haunting to watch, and the slow & methodic camera, the dazzling and powerful soundtrack and the fantastic performances add up to an absurd and awful climax.I can't really tell if this is a movie I hate or I love, but I got to respect Lanthimos for giving me one of the most unique, if perverse and horrifying movie experiences.Be also sure to check out my review & diary on letterbox.What do you think about this movie? via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2ER3UrJ
