Paranoid loser Beau Wassermann (Oscar-winner Joaquin Phoenix) confronts the mother of all anxieties while embarking on an epic, Kafkaesque odyssey in the third film from elevated horror writer/director Ari Aster (Hereditary, Midsommar).  Aster’s wild black comedy unfurls at breakneck speed—with one long dreamy interlude—aided by spot-on performances from Nathan Lane, Amy Ryan, Parkey Posey and Patti LuPone.

“It’s an extraordinary and deliciously demented study of a tortured soul of clumped memories.” — Tomris Laffly, The Wrap
