Call Me by Your Name
★★★★★ Liked Rewatched

“Just remember, our hearts and our bodies are given to us only once, and before you know it your heart's worn out; and, as for your body, there comes a point when no one looks at it, much less wants to come near it. Right now, there's sorrow, pain. Don't kill it and with it the joy you've felt.”

So what does he want to tell? Clearly another Evil Dead movie.

Demonic possession and nasty gore are the name of the game…
