admittedly did just have my own personal witch looking for a cat in the alps moment in that I realized I love the aesthetic of so many horror film gifs and do not want to fucking watch this ever. why can't we have a film that looks like this highly specific modern indie vampire film I've never heard of but is about an alcoholic detective with severe retrograde amnesia and his reserved and patient colleague trying to solve a murder in the rough part of town in a failed city-state.

#fun fact. i was rereading some oliver sacks while i was home last week #and actually it's much more common for late-stage alcoholics to develop partial retrograde but complete anterograde (korsakoff)#not the point but interesting. anyway #obviously this is nowhere near the same in that the system of DE is inherently unsuited to a cozy mystery; it is destabilizing by design #whereas you could shoot the communist neo-noir like a vampire film without much issue. but i wanted to make the joke.
