I saw this in bed after midnight today, March 7th, 2024, via my cellphone's ๐ฑ TUBI Streaming App.
-Scene Commentaries:
If you keep having nightmares about entities trying to get you, I don't think that it's a good idea to go to bed butt-naked! ๐ You'd just be attracting them even more!! ๐ I know that I wouldn't sleep butt-naked, if I were in her place!!! ๐
It's not a dream, it's a nightmare! ๐
Her name, Mara, is a dead giveaway! ๐ง
So is the name, Raziel! ๐ค
Likewise, Abagale has a meaning related to this movie! ๐คจ
I guess that the writer of this script was hoping that nobody would have a clue about the characters' names❗๐❗
And speaking of writer, the written dialogue for the demon character is exactly how I wrote dialogues around 40 years ago❗๐จ❗I last wrote dialogues in such a way around the year 2013 because it didn't look "normal" at all. It's a kind of writing style that one would only use in an English class to let the professor know that you can use such words as examples in a sentence! I guess that English professors know this too well and try to stir their students clear of such a pitfall. Because such a writing style can sometimes lead to Stilted Prose when done carelessly!
And books on writing style all say to write ✍️ naturally like how one talks. But I Don't Think That That's A Good Rule To Follow Anymore. ๐ I Mean, Have You Heard How Some People Talk These Days❓ One Has To Draw The Line At Some Point Somewhere❗
Stilted Prose can work as song lyrics, though. But Only If You Have A Hit Song In Your Hands❗ Or is that Stilted "Verse" .... ๐ถ
A flying bed ๐️ is definitely an upgrade for a flying carpet. ๐ All that it needs are some straps to secure someone into place! Oh, wait!! It does come with straps as shown later on!!! ๐คฃ ๐คฃ ๐คฃ
Here's something new: The demon ๐ offers Vegan food!!! ๐คฆ♂️ Well, this movie was filmed in Southern California. So .... ๐ ๐ ๐
The actress who plays the role of Mara looks like a pre-plastic surgery Megan Fox. ๐
Why does the coffee shop have walls with the paint peeling off? Ditto for Mara's apartment. ๐ค
Never trust a barista! ๐
It's a nice plot twist at the end. ๐
Tidbit:
Yesterday, I ate half of a Green Pomelo that my brother gave me last week. It was surprisingly not tart. It was mild and sweet BUT had a lot of seeds in it! I think ๐ค that I'll plant some pomelo seeds at Dan Foley Park in late Spring when I go there for my walks. ๐ถ♂️ It will be a L-o-n-g 6 years to wait for them to bear fruit. ๐️ ๐ฐ️
It was okay to take my Rosuvastatin drug because I made sure to take it 8 hours apart from my pomelo snack. And Rosuvastatin doesn't interact with Green Pomelo anyway. Besides, I only half-dose my prescription medications. But my brother takes 2 kinds of statin drugs each day and can't eat either Grapefruit or Green Pomelo! ๐ฒ
