Man... another film this year that deals with the strained relationship between mother and daughter. This is like Turning Red meets Cronenberg. Great performance by Siiri Solalinna.

This is on Hulu now.

Not sure what I think about it. I guess my expectations were high since it's gotten so much love on RT and Letterboxd. I wasn't thrilled at having to see the "feeding" several times. I will say the practical effects were nicely done.
