#just stuck in a cycle of thinking about Michael Shannon in Take Shelter
Text
Babadook was really the canary in the coal mine for critical thinking, especially in horror. Like the number of people who didn’t like that it worked as a metaphor were the harbingers of what was to come in terms of reading comprehension in western society. Imagine watching Babadook and thinking it was the first movie to use metaphor in horror.
#I was just thinking about Take Shelter again is all#just stuck in a cycle of thinking about Michael Shannon in Take Shelter#not saying that was the first either#literally all horror is metaphor#but Take Shelter is lodged in a specific part of my brain and I can’t shake it loose#the part that’s also home to Paperhouse#the part where my existential dread lives#and also the part that’s constantly concerned about tsunamis
