What's So Special About Her?

About This Movie

So, 'What's So Special About Her?' dives into some pretty unsettling territory right from the start. You have Codey, this stepbrother, caught in a moment that blurs the lines of morality and familial boundaries. The atmosphere feels charged, almost voyeuristic, as he becomes fixated on his sister's friend, Kate. The pacing is deliberately slow, amplifying the tension, and you can almost feel the discomfort that permeates every scene. Performances, though not widely recognized, bring a certain rawness to the material, which is distinctive for its exploration of taboo subjects without much gloss. It's definitely a film that sparks conversation, whether you appreciate the themes or not.

This film has been somewhat elusive in collector circles, with limited release formats and not much in the way of special editions. It's not widely discussed, but there’s a niche audience that finds the themes intriguing. As such, it’s become a topic of conversation among collectors who appreciate films that challenge social norms, albeit in a very provocative way.
