I recently watched Demonlover and it was the best film I've seen in a long time, would 100% recommend everyone watch. After finishing the film I was curious to see what critics thought about it and was shocked that neither they nor audiences enjoyed it.
There's a lot of great films with poor critic scores (eg. Con Air, Stepbrothers) but it's very rare that the audience score doesn't contradict it. The others I can think of are Only God Forgives and Alien 3 which I love and Neon Demon which I also really liked. I can understand with them why lots of people dislike them, the Demonlover hate is just baffling to me though.
Also the RT description and poster for Demonlover is so bad lol
Just remembered Universal: Soldier Day of Reckoning which has absolutely no right to be a great action film but somehow is brilliant
Monkeybone was pretty cool too
I'm actually remembering loads now

That's actually one of the scariest movie moments I've seen that mindfricked me. Not any of the death scenes, but when she explains that the cubes are some insane loop of governments and corporations contracting out their creation to each other where no one knows where or how it started. I think the movie was going for some boring implication of a bigger secret evil organization, but to me it just sounded almost lovecraftian or like there was no meaning, no real origin, which is scarier.
Just one contracting company wants to test razor wire who contracts a company to build cubes who need a government's permission who need to dispose of political prisoners who one government organization needs to test this thing and contracts another company that involves another government, till it's an insane bureaucratic force that's just building a bigger and better murder cube maze for decades and trapping people inside and nobody knows why or how.
