Movie Pass Adventures: The Legend of Ochi

You will believe a baby ochi can cry.

If you ask A24 to make a kids’ movie, you can’t be surprised if it has some blood and swearing and Willem Dafoe. The baby ochi puppetry (and CGI probably) is great. Amazing facial expressions.

I originally thought I’d do a parody poster based on the one for The Hateful Eight (because “ochi” sounds like “ocho”), but that poster isn’t very memorable. I went with a different “kids’ movie with a bit more adult content than you might expect” poster instead.
