As someone who is not particularly into David Lynch, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this film. The soundtrack, which features Rammstein and Trent Reznor, was fucking awesome, and the plot was just grasp-able enough that I was able to glean some meaning from the watching experience (which always helps me enjoy a movie better).

X-Men: Apocalypse 2016
Apocalypse calls himself Elohim, takes a holocaust survivor to Auschwitz and tells him to be mad about it. Charles takes back shots from apocalypse if you know when to pause. Logan wears Hulk pants and has an uncomfortable moment with a 16 year old. Might never watch another movie again

Interview with the Vampire 1994
This movie can’t decide what it wants to be. It’s almost sooooooo good but then they cry tears of blood or just start randomly floating or some other insane vampire bullshit. I can’t believe they got Tom Cruise AND Brad Pitt AND Antonio Banderas but nobody put effort into their wigs??????? A great movie for watching while drunk to hell with your friends. Prime drinking game material. Watch for a good time but don’t expect it to make any sense.
