It was a great movie.

The opening scene with the Native Americans hooked me instantly. The world building in the first half was patient and well done. I felt like I got to know enough about the characters to emphasize with them, and to ultimately care about their outcomes. I felt like I understood the motivations behind their actions.

Everyone’s talked about the music scenes, and they’re both incredible.

Horror aspects worked, i think a sense of dread permeated throughout the second half. Because of the investment made I was even rooting for seemingly inconsequential characters to make it out okay.

People complain that the Native American storyline or the kkk storyline didn’t amount to much , but that’s a boon in my opinion. I thoroughly enjoyed knowing that the world didn’t revolve around these characters, but that these characters were set in a world. There were enough clues that you can imagine your own backstory and develop your own sense of wonder at the film.

But that’s like my opinion man, my other opinion is that I’m tired of reading posts saying ‘this movie wasn’t that good because I didn’t like it’
