I didn't expect these movies to have anything in common thematically

spoiler

but they're both literally about moon guys making life real sad

Also, both had an immersion breaking moment when someone I know from podcasting showed up halfway through the film.

And they're both great! Highly recommend to everyone here. I'm sure mostly everyone here has seen I Saw the TV Glow but Bugonia is another Lanthimos banger.

I really liked how it had some tension about whether it's set in the real world or not. Reminded me of Beau is Afraid which also made you wonder whether it was taking place in reality or just inside the head of the protagonist.

I found The Killing of a Sacred Deer very frustrating for that reason. But didn't mind his other movies, maybe Kinds of Kindness has a little too many strange character moments but it was novel enough that I didn't mind.

You should check out Dogtooth, it's also one of his movies where there aren't hidden rules.
