  Blue Velvet 1986

  ★★★★ Rewatched 08 Feb 2025

  Frank Booth is still one of the greatest film characters of all time. The way Jeffrey's fear and confusion coalesce as a child's question: "Why are there people like Frank?". Brilliant.

  V/H/S 2012

  ★★ Watched 31 Aug 2013 3

  V/H/S opens with the best short of the bunch ('Amateur Night' from director David Bruckner) but soon afterwards this thrill ride slows to a halt in Snoresville, and decides to stay there until the effective finale, at which point the Radio Silence boys show up with an amusing tech demo.

  Also, I'm not usually one to pick on people, and I haven't seen anything else he has made so perhaps this is harsh, but if Glenn McQuaid never touches a camera ever again it'll be too soon. Jesus.
