I enjoyed Red Dragon and The Silence of the Lambs, but I just couldn’t get over how hamfisted the series was with the whole “It’s gory, but isn’t it bEaUtIfUl?!” thing. I don’t normally like using the word “pretentious” as criticism, but I can’t think of any other word to describe it.

I felt the exact same way, you just brought back memories of watching it… The dream sequences stood out as extra pretentious in my mind
