  Shin Kamen Rider 2023

  ★★½ Watched 31 May 2023

  I really really wanted to like this one but damnit it kind of sucks :/

  Cinematography and design work are good, the cast is strong and give good performances, but ultimately the film couldn't decide if it was campy pulpy silly penis time or another stoic Anno 'kino' about instrumentality. Which the dichotomy of shouldn't be an issue, but most of the film is spent skipping to "the best of" bits of a Rider series while throwing in these unearned…

  Nosferatu 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 18 Dec 2024

  focus features got me driving out of town to go see features that I paid gas money for so i gotta focus…

  
  some of the best use of color/kind of shit that got you wanting to have intelligent tech conversations and using big boy words like “day for night”

  
  I like the vaguely dickens esque christmas vibes but wish the style was less The Conjuring like. like it should’ve been more Ringu than The Ring.

  hmmm, I liked it enough…
