The Strange Thing About The Johnsons Watch

Okay, Let's Talk About That Movie

We need to address the elephant in the room. Or, perhaps, the very weird painting in the Johnson’s living room. Yes, I'm talking about the Strange Thing About The Johnsons.

It's a short film that… well, it's memorable. Maybe not for the right reasons, though. You either love it or you're deeply disturbed. There seems to be no in-between.

My Unpopular Opinion (Brace Yourselves)

Here's the thing: I think it's...kind of good. There, I said it! Don't get me wrong; it's unsettling. It leaves you feeling like you need a shower.

But isn't that the point? To provoke? To make you feel something other than apathy? I believe Ari Aster succeeded.

Think about it. How many movies do you watch and forget instantly? This one sticks with you like glue.

The "I Can't Look Away" Factor

There’s a morbid curiosity that fuels the viewing experience. You know you shouldn't be watching. Yet, you can't look away.

It's like a car crash in slow motion. Horrifying, but compelling. That's the Strange Thing About The Johnsons in a nutshell.

The acting is fantastic, let's be honest. Billy Mayo is phenomenal in his role. He portrays a specific character with skill.

It's Supposed to be Uncomfortable!

Some argue it's too graphic, too shocking. But isn't that part of its power? It throws social norms out the window.

It holds a mirror up to uncomfortable truths. It explores the dark underbelly of family dynamics. That’s what good art often does, right?

It’s not a movie you watch for a relaxing evening. It's a cinematic punch to the gut.

Let's Talk About That Ending

That ending! Goodness, that ending. I won’t spoil it, but it's… unforgettable.

It’s the cherry on top of a very strange, twisted sundae. It’s the moment you either applaud or throw your remote at the screen.

It solidifies the film’s place in the "movies you can't believe exist" hall of fame. Believe me, after you watched it, you'll think about it at least once a week.
