Colossal
After being kicked out by her boyfriend for her excessive drinking, unemployed writer Gloria moves back to her rural hometown and takes a job at a bar run by her childhood friend, Oscar. Simultaneously, a giant kaiju monster begins inexplicably appearing in Seoul, South Korea, causing widespread destruction. Gloria is horrified to discover that she is psychically linked to the creature; when she walks through a specific local playground at 8:05 AM, the monster materializes in Seoul and mimics her every move. This bizarre connection takes a dark turn when Oscar reveals he can manifest a giant robot in the same way, using his newfound power to emotionally abuse and control Gloria by threatening to rampage in Seoul if she doesn't comply with his demands. Realizing she cannot defeat his robot with her monster on the same "stage," Gloria flies to Seoul, which causes her monster avatar to appear back in their hometown playground, allowing her to finally confront her human-sized tormentor and break free from his toxic influence.
