This movie would make me NOT WANT to go to a nursing home.
Loved this. Maybe I just love John Lithgow.
This was amazing! I didn't think I would like it this much, I was on edge the entire time I was watching it.
One Rolled Around the Cuckoo’s Home Gotta love how the staff only show up at the worst possible times and never during the ruckus - it seems almost unbelievable, but this kind of negligence and incompetence could certainly happen in reality.
Excellent acting as always from Lithgow and Rush! Well paced and will watch again when I have the time to immerse into it completely (currently trying to turn a "Western" knitting pattern into an "Eastern" pattern, damned arthritic hands). Getting old sucks ass. Man, when Lithgow let his mask slip it sent shivers down my spine! I have seen that vulnerable "help me" look that melts into Resting Psycho Bitch face more times than any human being should encounter in their lifetime and it is. . . fucking terrifying. And what?! NO CAMERAS in a modern day nursing home?! That was the only thing that kept bugging me throughout the movie. still worthy of a rewatch, imo.
