The Devil's Candy 2015
A light 3. Trite premise, but executed well. Can’t say I’ve seen a lot of metal horror before. Nothing was really a particularly new concept- drawing demonic paintings, haunted houses, creepy people who lived in the house before. By the 40 minute mark the movie gets quite interesting. The last 15 minutes are killer. Extra credit for being under 80 minutes

The Running Man 1987
Solid premise, and entertaining in spurts. My biggest complaint is how dated the movie feels. This could definitely benefit from a remake with the right director and cast. Still alright nonetheless. Arnold has some great quotables here.

God Forbid: The Sex Scandal That Brought Down a Dynasty 2022
The information in the documentary is SO interesting, but the editing and production is ruining this. WHY IS THERE RAP MUSIC PLAYING DURING INTERVIEWS AND MLK SPEECHES. I can barely hear what people being interviewed are saying because there’s literally people rapping over them FUCK dude
I want to learn about Jerry Falwell and Trump but the editing and production is so fucking bad at times it’s detracting from the work
Great ending tying everything all together

Colin in Black and White 2021
A lot of the racism was very on the nose and holy shit does this make the mom look like a dunce, but overall I really enjoyed this. If you support what Kaepernick stands for (I do) and you don’t mind the lack of subtlety I would strongly recommend this. An interesting watch.
