Fetching Cody [movie]

I KNOW IT'S A THING BUT IT'S ALMOST REALLY WEIRD TO SEE POSITIVE BUT NOT ROMANTICIZED PORTRAYAL OF HOMELESS PEOPLE. LIKE TO A DEGREE IT ACTUALLY FEELS SHOCKING AND DISCONCERTING IT'S SOMETHING THAT IS SO RARE AND SOMETHING YOU NEVER SEE EVER IN MOVIES EVER.


PS. THIS MOVIE IS ALMOST LITERALLY JUST A REMAKE OF BUTTERFLY EFFECT BUT ABOUT POOR CANADIAN HIPSTERS. ALSO, IT'S REALLY GOOD.

Blight of Humanity [movie]

 Blight of Humanity  [movie] I DON'T KNOW, THIS IS VERY LIKELY THE MOVIE WITH THE MOST EXPLICIT/GRAPHIC SHOCK STUFF I'VE EVER SEEN. THE PREMISE IS PRETTY LITERALLY JUST FILM ON THE MOST NICE DAY OF SUMMER THEN HAVE HORRIBLE STUFF.  I KIND OF HATE HOW IT ENDED. FOR LIKE 95% IT WAS ACTUALLY EARNING IT'S HORRIBLE STUFF WITH A PRETTY STRONG ARTISTIC MESSAGE. AS LONG AS THE DAD/DOCTOR/GOD/PROFESSOR GUY WAS DOING EVERYTHING THROUGH A "LOOK AT HIM GO", "WHY ARE YOU BEING SO DISRUPTIFUL", "YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T ALWAYS HAVE IT YOUR WAY" LENS IT WAS REALLY WORKING AS MEANING *SOMETHING* EVEN IF THAT WAS STILL ABSTRACT. AS SOON AS HE WAS HELPING/REACTING IT MADE IT JUST WAY MORE A DIRECT GROSS OUT FILM THAT SUCKS. I GUESS YOU COULD SAY SOME JESUS ALLEGORY? EH, MEH. PS. THIS HAD A BUNCH OF REAL ANIMAL DEATH. THAT SUCKS. I HATED THAT MORE THAN THE STUFF WITH THE ACTORS. THEY HIT A SALIMANDER WITH A STICK AND HIT A CRICKET WITH A DIFFERENT CRICKET AND THAT ...

Bring Her Back [movie]

 Bring Her Back [movie] THIS IS A REALLY GOOD, REALLY BRUTAL HORROR MOVIE. NOT AN ALEGORY FOR ANYTHING, NOT A GENRE HOMOGE, NOT A 80S THROW BACK, NOT TORTURE PORN, NOT A SLASHER SEND UP, NOT ANYTHING ANY HORROR MOVIE IS THESE DAYS. JUST A REALLY WELL DONE ACTUAL HORROR MOVIE THAT IS SCARY. (WELL, MAYBE MORE SCARY IF I DIDN'T WATCH IT AT LIKE 2PM ON A MONDAY). JUST A GREAT SHOWER WITH YOUR DAD SIMULATOR WITH A REALLY AWFUL FOSTER MOM.  PS. FOR SOME REASON IT'S VERY FUNNY TO ME THAT THE EVIL SATANIC NECROMANCER CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL TAPES HAVE SUBTITLES. LIKE THEY EVEN ORIGINALLY HAD RUSSIAN ONES, BUT THEN HAD HARD SUBS POSTED OVER IN ENGLISH.  LIKE, WHAT IS THE FANSUB COMMUNITY ON SATANIC WITCH VHSES?

Friendship [movie]

 Friendship [movie]  OH GOD. THIS WAS REALLY GOOD BUT SO STRESSFUL TO WATCH I FEEL LIKE I WANT TO PUKE. IT'S TIM ROBINSON MEETING HIS "COOL" NEIGHBOR AND BECOMING BEST FRIENDS, THEN BEING WEIRD AND AGGRESSIVE AT A PARTY SO HIS FRIEND 'BREAKS UP', THEN TIM CYCLING TRYING TO WIN HIM BACK, BE AS COOL AS HIM, OR MAKE NEW FRIENDS AS HIS WHOLE LIFE FALLS APART DUE TO THE OBSESSION. IT'S VERY MUCH JUST A SERIES OF 'I THINK YOU SHOULD LEAVE' SKETCHES, BUT WITH ONGOING CONTINUITY SO THE ERRATIC BEHAVIOR HAS ONGOING CONSEQUENCES. (ALSO AT THE BIG PIVOTAL MOMENT THE GUY SAYS "I THINK YOU NEED TO GO" WHICH IS A REASONABLE AND NORMAL SENTENCE, BUT WAS SAID WITH WEIGHT, AND AS THE BIG MOMENT, AND I STILL DON'T THINK IT WAS A CALL OUT TO THE SHOW, BUT I DO THINK I HAVE THE SAME THEORY NOW I HAVE ABOUT  KAZUO ISHIGURO HAVING A MOMENT HE THOUGHT A STEAM MACHINE WAS THE CAUSE OF THE WORLD FALLING, OR REBECCA SUGAR LEAVING A TOY IN THE YARD WHERE ONE THING ...
