But separately, I'm really interested in how to do that better in the horror genre in general, in ways that don't contribute to our societal distrust of folks with mental health struggles by turning them into unreliable narrators of their own stories.

Noncommittal to that end is hard to pull off successfully in the long term. I'm not sure if they'll be able to maintain it through the end, and if they commit at this point one way or the other, it would feel unsatisfactory, too. So out of the options, I'm actually ok if they leave that, lol.

Nine times out of ten, it's a cost-reductive measure, to focus the plotlines around the adult Yellowjackets only and cut out any other characters who might've been in their lives and made for better and more interesting plot development. They probably don't want to pay additional actors regularly.

But like, they've lost the thread with Tai, for example. What even happened to her campaign? What about her kid and her ex wife? What happened to them? They just disappeared after the car accident and we never heard anything else and now it's all just Tai and Van. Mistake.

I think their biggest mistake was focusing too much on the Adam plotline and feeling like they have to keep the adult Yellowjackets together for the plot to be interesting--Shauna's the most interesting to me in the adult timeline not because of Adam but because she's the one we know the most about.

Then probably Impetigore, His House, & La Llorona, assuming Parasite & The Platform don't qualify? I'm getting alternately 2019/2020, presumably for international release dates. I haven't watched many 2020 horror films beyond these--wasn't a good year in film. Horror series were lit in 2020, though.

Watched in 2020, I assume, not necessarily had to have come out in 2020? Parasite, The Platform, and La Llorona
