Cute Quinn
Today on scouring Netflix for strange shit: Freaks (2018)
Cute Quinn
this is a strange movie that intrigues me
Cute Quinn
there is a man and his daughter, Chloe, age 7 or so
Cute Quinn
together they live in a house
Cute Quinn
Chloe is not allowed to leave the house under any circumstances
Cute Quinn
Henry trains her to be able to act normal in the event that she winds up outside
Cute Quinn
because if anyone finds out she isn't normal, says Henry, they will kill her immediately
Cute Quinn
a couple glimpses of the outside world suggest that it's a perfectly ordinary suburb
Cute Quinn
but Henry made a rare trip outside to get supplies and came back half-dead and covered in blood
Cute Quinn
the door has eight locks on it
Cute Quinn
Chloe is now outside, on a pilgrimage to the front gate to see Mr. Snowcone in his ice cream truck
Cute Quinn
Henry has millions of dollars of loose cash for unexplained reasons
Niamh Vibes
Oh I wanted to see this in theaters and missed my chance
Cute Quinn
Mr. Snowcone is trying to get her to come into the ice cream truck, which seems like a bad move
Cute Quinn
he's lying a lot to do it
Princess Emily
this sounds WILD
Cute Quinn
hmm 
izzy.vrm
HMM
Cute Quinn
the people outside know chloe's name
Cute Quinn
Mr. Snowcone is trying to figure out if Chloe has any abilities normal humans don't
Cute Quinn
bad people go to the mountain
Cute Quinn
a policeman tried to arrest mr. snowcone
Cute Quinn
chloe told him to go away and he did
Cute Quinn
no questions asked
Cute Quinn
"All officers on alert. abnormal child has been located"
Cute Quinn
mr. snowcone is chloe's grandfather
Cute Quinn
chloe's mom was very special and everyone was afraid of her
Cute Quinn
but then she went to the evil mountain
Cute Quinn
there's a room that sometimes has a ghost in it
Cute Quinn
the ghost is chloe's mom
Cute Quinn
but when chloe confronted her about it, the ghost insisted chloe wasn't real and screamed to get this kid away from her before she kills everyone
Cute Quinn
Abnormals become more powerful with each generation
Cute Quinn
the last time abnormal children were allowed to run free, they lost an entire city
Cute Quinn
space seems fucky
Cute Quinn
oh she can just control people's minds
Cute Quinn
if she says something enough times, people do it
Cute Quinn
Henry can create time bubbles
Cute Quinn
in the outside world, only a few months have passed since Chloe was born
Cute Quinn
this movie is WILD
