Kodachrome 2017 Netflix

Someone from work mentioned it, I hadn’t heard about it. Neither had I heard Ed Harris name mentioned in a while..... it doesn’t disappoint!

Saved!


Because who doesn't like some religious satire?

Seriously, such a good movie if you have no strong ties to organized religion.

Such a classic!

Macaulay Macaulay Culkin Culkin was brilliant in a wheelchair.

Went to see Tenet yesterday.

Can't help but feel that Nolan has stretched himself a bit too much on this one. The soundtrack was great though.

Watched a 70's film called ASYLUM, quite creepy and suspenseful

Is that the portmenteau film, with a sequence of loosely connected stories? If so yeah, it is good. Hit and miss (as those kinds of films always are) but still enjoyable.

That it is. I enjoyed it. The situations are more gripping than the FX but hey, who am I to judge?

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

The movie?

lol it is what it is

Buffy is my favorite intellectual property of all time

The movie though... yeah that's a rough concept. The tv show brought that shit to life, and with far less studio butchering

Watching Paul Reubens ham it up as a vampire always makes the movie worth it for me though

That's the one. No regrets, but definitely subpar to the show. Too much story to regulate to 90min

Dr. Eugene Felikson 09.04.2020 12:14 AM

Yeah very loose with the concept

The show is brilliant though, and the comics ain't half bad either

Not the biggest fan of the recent BOOM! reboot but im hoping it finds its footing

Best thing about the BUffyverse was how much it could catch you off guard. once the writers found that groove they clearly just had so much fun playing in the demon and vampire filled universe


shit was cool

Really interesting film with a brilliant main premise (a virus transmitted by spoken language). It did nothing on 1st release but seems to be gathering a bit of a cult following as more people find out about it.


shhhh ;)

Yep, I'm pretty sure (as in - not really sure?!) I saw it referenced in a Mad Max documentary.

Really enjoyed this, have never seen a Fassbinder movie before, the first time I heard of him was from the John Waters movie Cecil B. Demented.

i fucking looooooove his stuff. cruel, hilarious, depressing, eye-opening, all at once.

This movie is beautiful. A lot to unpack with this. Dealing with Haitian culture. Their connection to voodoo, colonialism. Such a great movie.

Romero walkers or infection runners?

LifeDistortion 09.06.2020 01:11 AM

Neither. Seeing as this isn't a movie based off western culture's idea of what zombification is. Its a French film set in Haiti, that shows Voodoo as what it is, a religion. In fact, I think the movie even addresses outsiders' misunderstanding of Voodoo, and the plight of Haitian people being used by outsiders for slave labor.
