 Hello everybody, E here welcome back to 31 days of Halloween where I'm doing 31 days of Daily horror slash Halloween content and today I'm reviewing the movie cobweb Starring Anthony star homelander himself Lizzie Kaplan woody Norman, but the star of the show here and we're gonna get to her more in a minute is Cleopatra Coleman as miss divine. Let's jump into the review. So cobweb is a very I Don't want to say slow burn But it's it's certainly in a build-up the entire movie is about pacing It gets more and more tense as it goes along. It's about young Peter Played by woody Norman. I believe that's his name Peter's character is fantastic the the actor does a fantastic job The parents everyone in this movie absolutely killed it. I want to get that out of the way first Before I talk about my favorite character The cast is amazing everything that happens that like I said, I look for three things in in movies books and just Media in general characters pacing and dread The dread is off the charts because the pacing is off the charts because the characters are awesome And you either care about them deeply or you want to see the absolute worst thing possible Happen to them whether or not they actually deserve it in the end Which I think is the best part of the movie my favorite character. Let's just go ahead and get this out of the way Cleopatra Coleman as miss divine that the last time I was this enthralled with a character that that was As far as not wanting to see anything bad happened to them was Kelly Rowland in Freddie versus Jason And I say that I went to a theater To watch Freddie versus Jason when it came out and I was screaming at and me and other people in the audience We're screaming if Kelly Rowland dies we riot and that's how I felt about miss divine in this one In between those two movies. I can't think of another movie where I was literally hollering at the screen There is one scene. I believe it's the first Might be the second it when miss divine goes to check on Peter and Homelander dude is behind her. It was one of the most tense scenes I've ever seen now as far as the movie itself miss divine Absolutely epic everyone else killed it to favorite is miss divine But or Cleopatra Coleman. Sorry. She's now a new favorite actress of mine. I'm gonna be watching everything. She's in but I do want to say this about the story as Soon as it started as soon as the plot kicked into into gear and it started going I knew exactly what was going to happen because of other horror movies that I love watching. It's kind of become a Trope in and of itself to have a twist like at the end of this movie But I think it's a testament to how great the movie actually is that even though I saw what was coming very very early I still enjoyed every single minute of it Now we have to talk about the 800 pound spider in the room I am terrified of spiders. So there might be a little bit of bias here as far as What scared me there is a lot of spider action going on in this and the big bad at the end is absolutely terrified me I have a little bit of not a little bit. I have a quite significant childhood trauma involving dolls and spiders a Friend of mine when I was a little kid locked me in a closet and it was his mothers or grandmothers I can't remember doll closet and it was absolutely Infested with spiders the rest of the house was gnarly too, but that one and I got locked in there for quite some time It had one of those pull cords I reached up found it pulled the light and there were dolls all around me on all three sides and Then spiders started coming out of the the dolls straight out of a horror movie So I hate dolls just baby dolls like mannequins things like that don't really bother me as much It's just the porcelain baby dolls or when they're dressed up dressed up and like Victorian era stuff That has nothing to do with this movie I just want to let you know that maybe I found this movie more terrifying because of my trauma But I've talked to other people and other people seem to agree with me. This is definitely a sleeper hit I had not heard of it until my friends over on discord brought it up and I was like, okay Let me go check this out. Even though it's called cobweb. I was like whoo, but anyways, I got into it I was absolutely enthralled and Some of the scenes especially when they're outside like digging in the backyard Some of those scenes are just so fall heavy. So a tunnel feeling so Halloween feeling There's even pumpkins. I believe they have a pumpkin patch in their backyard all that stuff So this is a perfect movie to watch during this time of the year during spooky season It it really it gave me that sense. I watched it probably two months ago and I've saved my review all the way until now The set design is another Massive success in my opinion the way the house is set up the way everything works the the basement the crawl spaces all that stuff I thought it was absolutely epic and it really brought to mind the people under the stairs You remember that old West Craven joint that it brought that to mind also in fact Homelander dude I know I said his name at the beginning, but I already forgot it the guy who plays Homelander Just I don't he even reminds me of the the daddy in people under the stairs Anyways, it's a fantastic movie. I could sit here for hours literally talking about this I might do a spoiler review at some point in time But there were so many brilliant what I thought were brilliant scenes in this movie that I that puts it leaps and leaps and bounds above the rest of the horror stuff that's out there now Five glowing stars In fact, it's one of those movies where I would be like I would like to give this six stars If I could that kind of thing and the way everything ties around with the bully and all that coming to fruition There is not a Single wasted scene in this movie. It is all about the pacing is all about giving you Information and little bit a little bitty chunks so that it pays off at the end There there's one scene especially that they set up very early on in the movie that comes back to haunt The the characters at the end and as soon as they sat down at the table. I was like, oh my god He didn't and it paid off. It was absolutely amazing and I like I said I can just keep rambling and rambling I know you guys like it when I ramble I didn't think you did but the vast majority said, you know stop with the edits and just give us you rambling So here we are you get all the you get all the rough stuff here at the end. But yeah cobweb 2023 film absolutely amazing movie. If you have not seen it, please go out and check it out. It is entirely Perfect for this time of year, but until next time I have been a you've been you this has been another episode of 31 days of Halloween, I'll see you tomorrow for the next one. Bye. Bye
