Watched the Monkey last night and, while I understood going in it's a meant to be a a gory, silly horror comedy and not supposed to be scary, I was just waiting for it to be over. There were a couple cool scenes that you wouldn't expect in that type of movie, which I always enjoy. The best horror movies these days seem to follow a formula you expect, than drop some scenes that make you feel like you accidentally took some hallucinogens.
Loved Perkin's previous movie Longlegs, but I'm glad I watched the monkey free with streaming subscription. It was miss for me, maybe just not in the mood. Hoping Perkin's next one, Keeper, will be darker.
