About This Movie
The 12 Day Tale of the Monster that Died in 8 is an intriguing dive into a unique slice of life during a pandemic. It captures the isolation felt by many through its protagonist, an actor who's lost his job and finds solace in raising capsule monsters he buys online. The pacing can feel unconventional, gradually revealing the emotional weight behind his actions. The practical effects used for the monsters add a charming, almost nostalgic feel, reminiscent of classic creature features, while also showcasing a certain DIY aesthetic. It’s less about the monsters themselves and more about the themes of companionship and loneliness in a strange time. The performances have this rawness that really connects you to the character's journey.
