Emma Seligman’s debut feature, Shiva Baby, made us cringe tonight… in the way that we like to cringe. Although it’s not a horror movie, it almost could be, with new plot twists coming hard and fast, spiraling ever downward with every glass of wine Danielle (Rachel Sennott – excellent) knocks back, and every staccato note of Ariel Marx’s haunting score.  The cast is all solid, but Dianna Agron brought another level of tension, with her knockout performance as Kim, a Westchester blonde “Shiksa” entrepreneur (she’s actually Jewish btw). Perfect.

Our short tonight was the vintage I Fink U Freaky, by Die Antwoord. Dark stuff all night!
