I am so mad this didn't win for Best Makeup at the Oscars. I mean, Vice was great but the prosthetics in this movie were incredible. They were swimming! In full makeup! Also, this movie is completely bonkers. It's Sweden's answer to The Shape of Water and I am here for it.
Tina (Eva Melander) is a customs agent with the uncanny ability to smell human emotions. This makes her incredibly gifted at discovering contraband and helps her uncover a child pornography ring. At around the same time, she meets a dude named Vore (Eero Milonoff) with the same kind of facial deformities, scar, and fear of lightning that she has. This leads her to a different kind of discovery and forces her to question all of her assumptions about herself.
Depending on how much you know about Swedish folklore, you may be able to guess where this is going, but friends I assure you, you are not prepared. The sex scene, the child porn, the taped-up fridge, it's all crazy. This is streaming right now on Hulu and you should definitely give it a watch.
