THE UNTAMEDdir. Amat Escalante
Trailer with english subs (https://www.facebook.com/thematchfactory/videos/1427727583915064/)
A couple in a troubled marriage locate a meteorite, initiating an encounter with a mysterious creature. Their lives are turned upside down by the discovery of the creature, which is a source of both pleasure and destruction.
Apparently this is like Lovecraft + Tarkovsky + tentacle porn. SOLD.
God this looks/sounds fantastic...
Quote from: Letterboxd user AnetteWhat inspired this film was a news article about a man who drowned, and the headline read "faggot drowned". Amat Escalante was so appalled by the lack of humanity that he decided to make a film exploring themes of sex, homosexuality, violence and gender roles. And it the middle of it all, simply lacking any humanity at all: an alien which both gives humans pleasure and destroys them. When facing the cruelty and violence in Mexico, creating a supernatural being might seem less far fetched than reality.
