Odd and heavy on atmosphere are definitely two things that "Mandy" has to spare.
I´d give it 4/5. Great performances, really bizarre and even surrealistic in some scenes, great characters and beautiful cinematography. Panos Cosmatos is a someone to keep an eye on.
It´s been a great year for horror so far.

Taking Care of Business 8/10
Mr. Destiny 9/10
Just watched a couple of these James Belushi movies. Both have a ton of other well known actors, and amazingly have a great story behind each along with comedy. 2 can't miss movies. Love them both.

National Lampoon's Animal House (1978)
This was actually my first time watching it. I'm not really into comedies--especially sophomoric ones like this. I didn't know it was set in the early 60s and that the end is a clear spoof of American Graffiti, another period teen film I love so bonus points for all that. Also, John Belushi, while featured fairly prominently, wasn't as omnipresent in the film as I feared--because for me, a little John Belushi goes a long way. In summary, more enjoyable than not. 6/10

Annihilation. 5/10
Never had a movie put me to sleep this fast. Other than a few real frightening moments interspersed with what felt like hours of tedious dialogue between there's no possibility of me ever sitting through this again. The bonus here is that if you are low on estrogen this movie is a sure cure.
