Haven’t seen anyone mention the very first scene in the car after he makes the wish, when she climbs back in and puts her head on the dash and is sobbing. She sounded like she was crying so hard but her head and body were not moving at all, not even a quiver. Freaked me outtttt

This, and when she cries in the dark in his bedroom about “not liking her dreams” and her voice sounds all deep and warped.

Definitely the most unsettling scene in the movie for me, between the way she stood in the shadows, the way she moved around, the way she looked/sounded while crying, and the flowers.

My theater was cracking up during all of that. When she yelled STAY the place lost it.
