XO, Kitty
Tumblr media
TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2023
XO, Kitty (2023, USA/South Korea)
Creator: Jenny Han
Directors: Jennifer Arnold, Jeff Chan, Pamela Romanowsky & Katina Medina Mora
Mini-review:
I was a big fan of the To All The Boys series (both books and movies), but I must say I have somewhat mixed feelings about this show. For starters, it is too cheesy. Yes, the TATB trilogy was also cheesy, but in the movies that came across as charming, while here it's a bit cringey. Also, it's pretty obvious they tried to give the show a "western K-drama" kind of vibe, and it doesn't really work. For example, the cinematography feels really lifeless and bland, and things like that make me think Netflix didn't spend much money here. That being said, there is one thing this show did better than any k-drama in existence: the representation. It's beautiful to see such a wide variety of sexualities, cultures and races in a show set in South Korea.
I also loved the cast. It's obvious they had a great time filming the show and portraying these characters, and their energy is very infectious. The show is worth a watch based on the characters and their interactions alone. Among them, I enjoyed Sang Heon Lee's and Gia Kim's performances the most, and I'd love to see them in tons of projects going forward. Tbh, there are times where the writing is all over the place, and the characters change their minds constantly in ways that make little sense, but it's so fun to watch that I could sort of ignore all the inconsistencies. I have to admit I was pretty invested in these characters by the time I finished the last episode, so I would definitely like to see a second season.

Grace: The Possession (2014)
Tumblr media
If you look hard, you’ll find that Grace: The Possession (titled simple Grace in some markets) isn’t completely without merit. It’s trying something new - which is always praiseworthy - and there are a couple of moments during its big scene that are clever. Before you get excited, know that it’s hardly worth sitting through the film to see them. This is a predictable, poorly-written horror film.
Grace (Alexia Fast) has finally mustered the courage to leave her grandmother’s home and go to college. Unfortunately, the 18-year-old devout Catholic is ill-suited for the culture shock that awaits her. Things get worse when she begins experiencing nightmares and terrifying hallucinations. Is it mental illness, or the same dark force grandma (Lin Shaye) claims caused Grace’s mom’s death?
Grace: The Possession is almost entirely shot from a first-person point of view, which is a neat idea. This cinematic technique allows us to simulate the terrifying loss of control you would feel while something else takes over your body. As the possession gets worse, Grace hallucinates some skin-crawling or perplexing stuff that might be scary to see from the usual point of view but is even more unsettling from her's. This does mean that those who couldn’t handle the shakiness of “found footage” horror will have a difficult time watching the film, but director Jeff Chan (who co-wrote the story with Chris Pare) must've been aware. Instead of compromising, he made a bold choice and chose to stick with it all the way through.
It’s a shame the film has nothing going on outside of its vantage point. Grace has no personality. Her grandmother is a domineering bully and nothing more. Every single college student reaches for a bottle of alcohol the second they get up, party all night with the help of drugs and cares more about sex than their classes. Seriously, it’s the first day of school and Grace’s roommate, Jessica (Alexis Knapp), is partying like graduation is happening tomorrow. It’s a cartoon.
In theory, three questions will keep you engaged. “What’s happening to Grace?”, “What happened to Grace’s mother?" and "Who is Grace's father?” with the title and premise giving the first question away, you hope the second and third questions will be harder to decipher. They aren’t. The second Grace comes home and meets Father John (Alan Dale) and Deacon Luke (Joel David Moore), you know EXACTLY what’s going on. The film constantly features little things that cinematically rub you the wrong way. Clues about Grace's father are conveniently left out in the open (why hadn’t she found them earlier?). At school, Grace only hangs out with people you know she would never be friends with. For that matter, if she’s so religious and her grandmother is too, why didn’t she apply to a Christian college? it makes no sense.
Tumblr media
The film’s conclusion contains several head-scratchers between the unintentionally funny moments. To no one’s surprise, Father John is Grace’s father. It was pretty clear from his introduction that he was up to no good. When the exorcism he attempts fails, Grace goes full demonic and then murders him, saying he’s got to pay for raping Grace’s mom (we see it happen in a scene so ill-conceived I'm stunned someone at the studio didn’t speak up and get it thrown in the trash). The murder just doesn’t seem right. If Grace had given herself to Satan or made a pack with a demon, I'd understand, but why would an evil entity kill someone evil, even if they were a priest? Shouldn’t the possessor try to make humanity suffer more by keeping him alive? Or did the sinister force know Deacon Luke would then invite it into his body to save Grace? It leads to a "scary" twist, where we see the possessed Deacon hosting mass. It's supposed to unsettle but only raises more questions. How does he perform the ceremony when touching holy water makes his skin sizzle? See what I mean about this being poorly thought-out? Things happen not because they make sense; they happen so the movie can have “scares”.
Tumblr media
The one new thing Grace: The Possession has to offer isn’t nearly enough to offset the writing. You’ve seen everything this movie has to offer - except for the camerawork - before, done better elsewhere. It’s an awful horror film that borders on the offensive. (July 25, 2021)
