The Rule of Jenny Pen 2024
Some really good performances from Rush and Lithgow but it wasn’t enough to make this an enjoyable film. Dark, cruel and unforgiving, this film was a chore to get through. There were attempts at humor, but they didn’t distract at all from the grim setting and subject-matter. If you like seeing sad, old people getting terrorized while the oblivious staff turn a blind eye, then this is the film for you.

Inventive; genius even. The closest thing that I’ve seen that I would compare Dark City to is The Truman Show, which obviously came much later. Clearly very different films, but they both put you in the shoes of a protagonist that knows nothing of his own existence or what is happening. The only thing he knows is that something is clearly off; he just needs to find out what that is. What unravels is a paranoid, creepy, and humanistic techno~sci-fi~thriller of extremely high caliber, that keeps you hooked until the very final frame. An underrated masterpiece.

And it all builds to a climax that is sure to knock your socks off. I’m fully on board with this…

The Devil All the Time 2020
I’m not sure what the message was supposed to be, given that there’s so much going on. You basically just watch a number of people do one horrible thing after another. These acts are connected, but not in any meaningful way that ties them all together. They just seem to be happening to people that are all geographically close to each other. That being said, it could’ve been so much worse. The score was beautiful, and had reoccurring melodies that…
