    Kidou Keiji Jiban: Great Explosion at the Monster Factory of Fear

    ★★★★★

    Sure, sex is pretty fuckin great but have you ever watched a Toei theatrical joint from the late 80s/early 90s that runs less than an hour??

  • Hail, Caesar!

    Hail, Caesar!

    ★★★★

    Very charming. I originally mostly saw this a couple of years ago but never felt right logging it cuz it was on in the background while conversation continued pretty substantially. Was nice to finally see it proper.

    I made a Letterboxd entry for my two minute long short film because no one can fucking stop me. (It premieres on YouTube tonight at 7PM EST, so be sure to to check it out. ♡)

    Howl from Beyond the Fog

    ★★★★½

    Though its musical choices are a little unexpected in places and it's a little rough around the edges due to its minuscule production, Daisuke Sato's Howl from Beyond the Fog is a uniquely gorgeous giant monster movie and is the exact kind of handmade, thoughtful work the genre desperately needs more of. You owe it to yourself to give this a watch.
