A good nature brand rat trap with the designation of A24

With Marty Supreme, The Drama, and Mother Mary, people say A24 can do no wrong. I think they've taken it too far.

October is for horror franchises and slashers.

January/February is for the experimental and art house horror releases.

99% of the time if a book blurb depicts characters in the days leading up to a wedding, nobody is making it to those nuptials. Everyone is dead, arguing, or on the run.

You’re right—swallowing the bird was a half-measure. The bird did eat the spider, as planned, but now you have a bird in you. It reminds you of swallowing the spider to catch the fly. You’re seeing the pattern.

Would you like me to suggest some animals which could eat the bird?
