Olivia Rodrigo was ‘so scared’ watching new Joaquin Phoenix film she walked out the theatre
Rodrigo made the revelation in an interview with Interview magazine. She said that she is a fan of horror movies, but “Beau Is Afraid” was too much for her.
“I literally had to walk out of the theater,” she said. “I have never had such a visceral reaction to a movie in my life. It felt like a bad acid trip.”
“Beau Is Afraid” is a psychological horror film written and directed by Ari Aster, the filmmaker behind the acclaimed films “Hereditary” and “Midsommar.” The film stars Phoenix as a man who embarks on a surreal journey to visit his mother.
The film has received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its dark humor and others finding it to be too disturbing.
Rodrigo’s reaction to the film is not the first time that a celebrity has been so scared by a movie that they had to walk out. In 2017, actress Emma Stone walked out of the screening of the horror film “Get Out.”
It is clear that “Beau Is Afraid” is not a film for everyone. But for those who are looking for a truly terrifying experience, it may be worth a watch.
Here are some other reactions from people who have seen the film:
- “It was the most disturbing movie I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t sleep for a week.”
- “It was so scary that I had to laugh. It was like a dark comedy.”
- “It was a really well-made film, but it was just too much for me.”
Ultimately, whether or not you enjoy “Beau Is Afraid” is a matter of personal taste. But if you’re looking for a truly terrifying experience, it’s definitely worth checking out.
