    It is back, we didn’t ask for it but it showed up anyways. After 5 installments we all thought that this little cash cow had dried up and been put out to pasture. No, I guess they thought that they could crank out one more low-brow entry in a series full of them. I know its not cool to admit, but I kind of like this series. What started as a pretty neat novelty, quickly became a cluster of dumb…

    My favorite film of 2014!!! If you are reading this, it means you probably love film. This movie is for you and you only. It's a love letter to celluloid and I mean it literally, not in some abstract way. Borrowing from everything from Japanese Pinky films to the melodrama of Almodovar. Rarely do I really react when i watch a film by myself but I audibly cheered multiple times. All in all, cancel your plans and rent this on VOD ASAP. 5/5

    Btw: this could be the bloodiest movie in years
