The Voices (2014)


IMDb plot summary: A likable guy pursues his office crush with the help of his evil talking pets, but things turn sinister when she stands him up for a date.
Directed by Marjane Satrapi. Starring Ryan Reynolds, Gemma Aterton, Anna Kendrick, and Jacki Weaver.

Oh, man, this one is so dark and weird and sad and funny. Definitely a very distinct flavor, and not one I'd recommend to everyone. It connected with me, though -- Ryan Reynolds' performance is kind of perfect here, in all its confusing messiness.

How it entered my Flickchart:

Final spot: #853 out of 3067.
