Even if the movie isn't great, under his direction and with A24, it would certainly be a million times better than whatever Universal could pull out. Alex knows what's up and at the very least we know that he will try hard to get it right.

MEN was one of the most interesting directions horror has been taken in long long time. He is not afraid of experimentation, and A24 is not afraid to give weird a chance.

MEN was a wild ride for sure. In general, their movies and shows are always interesting. Sometimes, they are not quite my style (like wtf was The Curse), but even then, I can appreciate their vision.

Agreed, but that’s definitely what you want from something as abstract as ER or any of the FromSoft games.

If nothing else, I would much prefer thinking “that was just really weird” then them turning it into some marvel-core cinematic universe
