In the Earth

Description

In the Earth is a masterpiece for intellectuals and absolute garbage for the masses.

How often have you heard phrases like “There’s no accounting for taste” or “To each their own”? Only people with zero taste and no sense of style say that, using those phrases to mask their own cultural bankruptcy. A person with actual understanding can objectively evaluate a piece of art, even if they don’t personally like it. They can still recognize quality. But if someone loves garbage movies (I won’t even name them; they’re so repulsive I refuse to dirty my fingers typing their titles) and then calls a film like In the Earth garbage…

…you can rest assured this person has no concept of beauty. It’s best to end the debate right there. Actually, it’s best to forget they exist, along with all the other uncultured swine who tanked the rating for this masterpiece (their intellects are simply incapable of grasping the deep meaning and visual style Ben Wheatley poured into his film). They prevent other viewers from experiencing true art because, on a subconscious level, they are just terrified of a 5.1 rating.

Forget the low rating, forget the negative reviews, and just go watch In the Earth. Let it be your ticket into the world of weird, surreal cinema. A world you can discuss over a cold pint with your new hipster friends. Because after watching this movie, you will have them.
I wrote this text without malice. The goal was to make you laugh out loud, or at least crack a smile.

And I don’t personally despise everyone who tanked In the Earth’s rating. But I wouldn’t go to the movies with them. Hell, I wouldn’t even drink tea with them from the same teapot. I refuse to share with plebs.
