I give some plot for my review because I hope that it may make you want to watch the movie. I'm not that interested in somebody's simple rating of a movie, I want to know why.

I'm not one of focus on themes. For instance, I didn't think about The Bible when I was watching Mother! I went online afterwards and saw Javier's clues about the movie in an interview and now I do see that is and easy way to understand the film. But it's not what is directly presented, it's a subliminal message. It doesn't affect my experience. I'm not saying its wrong to watch movies in whatever way they hit you, or to talk about it. Why critique my critique? That's kind of like saying "the circumstances in which you watched and perceive the film are wrong", which is bullshit and probably not something that you (sean) or anyone on here actually stands for. But the one behind the keyboard is always the right one huh?

"IT COMES AT NIGHT" does certainly create a feeling, and at times very well. But I didn't enjoy the feeling because the payoff has no catharsis. It drags you through the mud until you drown in the river. On top of my issue with the ending, I don't remember any explanation what so ever for the paranormal aspect of the movie. What is infecting them and is it a biological plague or supernatural... I guess my issue was the ending was simply most of the cast dying and no mention about the issue of the movie which is IT COMES AT NIGHT.
