Skinamarink was good, but only for people who have seen too many horror movies. It was way too meta for me to recommend it to anyone. Like there are multiple, several minute long shots of empty hallways. And then nothing happens. No jump scares, not even something moving in the background. Just 3 minutes of a completely black screen.
For most people, that's like watching paint dry. But if you're expecting something because of established horror tropes and you spend those three minutes looking for something that isn't there? Yeah that's going to fuck with you.
Yeah this was my issue with it.
That and the really ambiguous narrative, which is why I also included The Outwaters in the title. Ambiguity is cool and useful in building a story, it's annoying if it replaces the narrative completely.
