The Strange Thing About the Johnsons Ratings & Reviews
- Vitor Lameirão AlvesDecember 28, 2025We don’t talk about The Johnsons—but we can’t look away. A short film that blends taboo family drama with psychological horror, echoing David Lynch’s unsettling tonal control. Disturbing, provocative, and concise, it leaves a lasting, uneasy impression long after the credits.
- SpanktacularAugust 15, 2025Like anything by Ari Aster, I felt new and intense emotions watching this. If you want more of this but with a dark comedy edge, go watch Happiness (1998).
