Annihilation (2018)

Now, I will tell you a story about a mother and a little boy who lived alone in a cabin in the dark woods. There was a monster in the woods, but the mother caught it and kept it locked in the basement. The monster always made scary noises at night, but the mother would tell the boy not to worry because it could never get out. Then she would sing the boy a lullaby to sleep. One day, the monster stopped growling and instead listened and learned the lullaby. The next day, when the mother went out to find food, the monster sang the lullaby from the basement. The little boy heard the lullaby and opened the door.

Granpappy lied about making money with the moonshine. If you leave jugs of it far away from the house, it keeps them occupied, and you can get some peace and quiet. The money was just a bonus.

We shall talk of many things.
