I feel part of the charming of the movie is that’s basically two different movies in one. And watching that in the cinema when you knew little to nothing bout it felt super fresh and fun.

Pearl is so much better

I could definitely enjoy the novelty of it, however brief

I'm guessing tree didn't get that there was a flashback in the middle of the movie

I watched it again and Barbarian is my movie of the year, I think. In the Horror category for sure.
Pearl is right up there, too.

I love the casting of Bill Skarsgard in that role.
