    Arabella: Black Angel

    A fetishistic trip into psychosexual mania and psychopathic violence. Horny, frightening, upsetting, and gorgeous to look at. <3

    Dildo Heaven

    "Good boys don't look through keyholes, Billy."

    A lo-fi hang-out comedy about hopeless men and lustful women who spend too much time watching mind-melting softcore smut. Hard to take it as anything other than a ninety-year old Wishman self-satirising a career made from busts and bizarreness.

    Contains the same off-the-wall charm of her previous films but with an added dose of SOV auteurism. So much fun. Final fifteen minutes are pretty much perfect.

    The Man with the Gray Elevated Hair

    ★★★★

    "What is the thing?"
    "Anger"

    The way Lynch describes things here is key. It's the detailed way he bridges raw abstract and the palpable and it soon becomes clear that his humanity is what makes his films so emotionally satisfying.
