Film Review: ‘Saltburn’ stuns, creeps out audiences

When I went to see “Saltburn” with one of my friends from high school over Thanksgiving break, I was expecting a goth version of “Call Me by Your Name.” It was what I was hoping for; watching a romantic drama is the perfect way to end the night after a long day at work. I had heard it was a little gross, but I was not thinking about that when the Nicole Kidman AMC Theatres commercial came on screen and the lights turned off.

“Saltburn” is not the goth version of “Call Me by Your Name.” It amps the audacious meter up to 10 and will leave most people who watch it asking themselves, “What did I just watch?”
