Divided Films

We're celebrating Halloween this week with a discussion on a very spooky Divided Film, The Blair Witch Project. Critics appreciated this movie's creepy atmosphere, but audiences thought the ending was anticlimactic.

We're taking a dark turn for our next Divided Film, the 2018 horror film Hereditary. Disturbing imagery and character development earned high scores from critics. However, the audiences didn't care for the unconventional story and ambiguous ending

Were we able to get over our fear of spiders and enjoy this creature feature like the critics did, or did we get too scared by the creepy crawlies like the audiences?

Our second Divided Film is The Mummy! That's the 1999 version and NOT the 2017 remake.

Will we side with audiences who fell for this movie's campy charm, or the critics who thought Brendan Frasier was a second rate Indiana Jones?

God versus Man! Day versus Night! Audience versus Critics!

For our first divided film, we're looking at one of the most polarizing superhero movies of all time - Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. This film had hero fighting hero, and the result was audiences fighting critics!

Are we going to side with audiences who called this a misunderstood masterpiece or critics who thought this was a depressing mess?
