This week we recapped Spring, a 2014 movie directed by filmmaker duo Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson. This film forms part of our Love Hurts line-up, but we're reminded that sometimes love is complicated. This is your 'Before sunset meets Lovecraftian with a bit of The Thing' mixed into the equation, so if any of those are your vibe, you'll enjoy this charming romantic horror.
