Currently watching Absentia because apparently I haven't seen most of Mike Flannagan's material. I'm fresh off of Gerald's Game and hard on its dick still, but the reason why I think that GG is his best movie is because the premise is set up a lot more naturally than any of his other films. The beginning of Absentia where they're putting forward necessary information in the most unnatural and forced way possible really helped me realize that.
More notes to follow. Maybe.
