  Halloween 1978

  ★★★½ Rewatched 24 Sep 2024

  Great score, great cinematography. Awesome to see the thing that inspired all other slasher tropes. Also when he wears the ghost sheet with the dead guys glasses.

  Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain 2021

  ★½ Watched 23 Jul 2024

  ghoulish and rushed, this documentary skims over the beginning of Bourdain’s life and career as a chef and places focus on the tabloid fodder and more sensationalized aspects of his life (and death). the documentary seems more interested in diagnosing him and analyzing his death than looking at his life. Eric Ripert and Ottavia Busia Bourdain really shine in this otherwise shallow look at an incredible person.
