    The Coffee Table

    ★★★★½

    Bruh… an absolutely vile, day ruining masterpiece.

    A masterclass in tension building and anxiety with some of the darkest humour you will ever see on screen (mostly within ironic dialogue but still darkly funny nonetheless in a pitch black, depths of hell dark sort of way) 

    Holy shit. Yuck. Wow. 

    I thought the coffee table looked kinda cool though…

  • Street Trash

    Street Trash

    ★★★

    Ooey-gooey campy fun

    It sucks but it rules. And on 35 mm no less!?

    I don’t know why exactly, but I hated this movie so goddamn much. I was irritated the entire run time and don’t understand the high ratings.

    Some dreamy cinematography and visually pleasing shots were the only redeeming factors.

    The story is so boring and uninteresting and there’s not a soul in this movie than can act. 

    I actually checked the time at one point in the movie because I was begging for it to end and felt like I had watched an hour and a half already.. I was only 45 mins in. This thing drags.

    Don’t watch this.

    Any 80’s film where cars hit street ramps and get some air time is minimum 4 stars from me
