Parker Finn's 2022 directorial debut Smile was one of the horror genre's biggest surprises of recent years. Trailers suggested it would be little more than yet another bland studio horror with an arresting gimmick it fails to exploit. But Finn's film turned out to be a thoughtful and disturbing supernatural thriller, one that took the cliché of "trauma" and actually did something interesting with the idea. As an allegory for mental health issues and the looming spectre of potential suicide, it somehow managed to avoid coming across as exploitative or distasteful.

"Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?"
Even those who don't know very much about visual art are familiar with the Cubist approach to the human body. Pablo Picasso liked to present a person from many angles at once, and compress three-dimensional form into a two-dimensional frame. No matter what step she's on, that nude descending a staircase comes at us all at once. We know we're looking at an individual person, even if it's never clear which of those fields of color represent the present moment and which are afterimages, projections, and vapor trails. Representing human beings like this guarantees that there’ll be distortions: facial features in strange places, unexpected angles, duplicates and odd subtractions, clashes between heads, necks, and torsos, the shuffling of expressions, and the surprise and disquiet that comes when an obviously human figure doesn't look much like a human at all.
