  The only thing you care about is nugs, chillin’ and grindage.

  Queer 2024

  ★★½ Watched 11 Jan 2025

  There was about 17 different directions I thought this this film was going to take at the half-way point and it decided to take the 18th - a puzzling ayahuasca trip, which descended into an abstract (and disappointing) second act of a story that I had just started to get emotionally invested in.

  The Substance 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 07 Sep 2024

  A slightly gratuitous final act that probably could have been cut a tad shorter, but the themes of intergenerational conflict, aging and the male gaze are executed masterfully in a suspended, horrific and occasionally comedic reality.

  Longlegs 2024

  ★★½ Watched 11 Jul 2024

  Builds suspense and gives you many questions to ponder early on, but ultimately only answers half of them and uses the horror genre & 90’s period as a crutch for not answering the other half. Eerie, unsettling and beautifully shot - but doesn’t make up for significant missed potential and a poor script.
