What a movie! It's propulsive, the soundtrack is incredible, there's a wild smattering of Farrelly Bros esque comedy, Tobey Maguire should be the antagonist of a horror flick about a haunted ventriloquist dummy, this is just like pure excess shoved into something powerful and very well crafted, I am fascinated to see what an even longer version would look like, I understand why this is bombing, but like, come on! Can't we have nice things?

Grand Theft Hamlet 2024
Sorta just left me feeling adrift in an emotionally resonant way that fully tracks with how I've been these past few months
Hit me more than I expected it to but always never quite devolved as much as I initially thought it would
There's some real good shots and evolution of the machinima I've grown up with
Just sorta vrwwewwwoouegh

Mickey 17 2025
I dunno, I just didn't click with this as much as I was hoping for. I was all in on the trailer, the concept, this being Bong's follow-up to Parasite, and the whole too wild to release buzz, combined with the general excitement to see a Bong flick whilst in Korea, just had me wholly on board and it just sorta continued my general trend of not really digging Bong's flicks generally. Don't get me wrong, this isn't bad and…

The Cell 2000
A movie that didn't quite spook me but did disturb me deeply but weirdly without a sense of horror in that primordial sense of the word, if you can dig what I'm saying. Sorta just that deep pervasive stomach shifting unease and discomfort minus any actual digestive problems.
Some truly fantastic visuals and concepts throughout. Was a true bummer the Kanopy Bitrate couldn't quite keep up with some of the most overwhelmingly beautiful abstract images. Some great unnerving score work
Can't quite figure out why it's called The Cell, however

The Last Year of Darkness 2023
Man this started out so strong and then lost nearly all of my interest
Always dig a good Bowie montage
Some fantastic shots
Always interested in the ethics of documentary filmmaking, there are some sequences in this where I'm genuinely intrigued in how and why they went above shooting in that way
