People expect me to love sci-fi, but to me it’s just one more genre.
My Top 10 Favorite Whodunits
Something to keep in mind: there’s a difference between a movie being a whodunit and having whodunit elements. For example, IMDb categorizes Heart Eyes as a whodunit, but if you were looking to have a nice mystery along the lines of Agatha Christie or Sherlock Holmes, all the gory kills might not really be for you.
Sirât Review and Discussion
Since I’m pretty late to the game with this one, I doubt there’s much interest in my review, but I did find that I wanted to talk about this.
My Top Ten Favorite Movies About Food
My initial instinct was to make this a joke and put on movies like Layer Cake, Duck Soup and Milk which just have foods in their titles, but that wouldn’t have been fun after one of them, so you get a real list.
My Top 10 Favorite Final Girls
At first I thought I might not be able to do this, because my choices wouldn’t be interesting enough, but then I still made the list and turns out that while some are pretty predictable, I did come up with some from the left field as well.
Huutamisen taito Review
I couldn’t find an official English title for this, but if I had to give a translation, I wouldn’t really be sure what would be the best way to go, because the word ‘taito’ can have very different connotations. It could be ‘The Art of Screaming’ or ‘The Ability to Scream’, but the most precise would probably be ‘The Faculty to Scream’, but that might be a bit clumsy. I don’t know. Not my field, really.
Guilty Pleasure Movies, part 11 – Jörg Buttgereit
First, I was way too young when I first saw Nekromantik. I don’t remember exactly when it was, but it must have been around when I was 13 and met this guy who had access to a weirdly huge variety of movies, considering it was 1990. Some he got through his parents, but I doubt even they would have let their kid see a movie like this that young. Then again, you never know.
Sisu 2 or Si2u or Sisu: Road to Revenge (choose one) Review
I really don’t like the last of those options. That’s just a pretty forced aspect of the movie.
Black Phone 2 Review – The Brutality Continues
The sequel no-one asked for, but it’s actually pretty good.
Guilty Pleasure Movies, part 10: Japanese Really Know How to Make These
Ah, Japan. The home of Kurosawa and Ozu and Miyazaki and Koreeda and Shinkai and the weirdest shit you could ever imagine… or not imagine as it happens, because these movies are so far out of anything we have ever seen.
