Oh girl time. Or as I like to call it: Gurl Time! I love it. I'm a big fan of road trips, movie nights, slumber parties, makeup parties, brunches, wandering around town wrecking chaos after all those bottomless mimosas during brunch. I love my girl time, I love my girls, my friends, my besties.  But here we have a selection of stories where that doesn't quite work out. The crazy eyes are rampant and the girl code is on point (sometimes destructively)!  Starting off with a little film from a very independent world we have: Homewrecker (2019) I don't know why this film made me so unc ..read more

I shot up out of bed around 4:00 AM this morning, stunned and startled by a loud sound. That sound was the wind, suddenly barreling through the crack I left in the window.  The cats jumped up on my bed as I walked to the window, to close it. We burrowed back down as near 50 mile winds slammed against the walls, tree branches were knocking on my window, and I could just hear the planet howling - the cats and I all tried to go back to sleep. Hello everyone, I hate the wind.  I really, really, really hate the wind. Let's talk about something that doesn't suck though: The Wind (1928 ..read more

Some years ago I stumbled across the story of serial killers Raymond M Fernandez and Martha J Beck, also known as the Lonely Hearts Killers. Two absolute morons who hunted down lonely women through personal ads, scammed them, and then murdered them. I didn't realize at the time, when I was watching Alleluia, I was seeing the most recent version of their story. Then some years later I stumbled across the cult classic, The Honeymoon Killers, and that's when I realized ... oh. This is yet another movie about this disgusting couple.  Completely invested now, I had to watch all the f ..read more

[takes a deep breath] You smell that? There's nothing quite like Troma in the morning! Let's check out the delightfully disgusting: Terror Firmer I love Troma films. Absolutely love them! What is it about starting my weekend mornings off with blood baths, breasts, guts, sex everywhere, flying limbs, scathing and witty social commentary, body juices all over the place, fire, exploding body parts, and  just general chaos. Who knows! That's between me and my therapist, I guess.  Here we have the classic tale of a small budget film crew and a serial killer on the loose. Everythi ..read more

This movie has been living rent free in my head for a while, and there it will probably stay for years. Shuttered, elusive, suffocating, and a royal mind f*ck - this film is not for everyone.  Let's check out: Skinamarink Let me start off by saying this is not a movie you *watch*, it's a movie you experience. This is very important.  Best as I can tell, a young sister and brother are left alone (seemingly) in a house that slowly begins to trap them in an endless, windowless, light-less, and parent-less home. They take care of each other and their loneliness by watching cartoons ..read more

Somewhere in the back of my brain, I knew this movie was originally a book. I'm not so sure I have the courage to read it though after this viewing experience. Let's check out the classic story: The Day Of The Locust Oh god.  I really had no idea what I was getting into with this one. But based on what little information I did take a peek at, I was pretty confident that I was going to get sucked down some sort of David Lynchian madness, mixed with a healthy dose of emotional chaos, and a hearty meal of existential dread.  Guess what? I Was Right! I'm never fully prepared for ..read more

Back in the days when streaming services weren't really a thing and I was getting Netflix in the mail, I used to go the library and rent a ton of films. For a couple of years I was primarily checking out silent films.  I love silent films. I'm on death's doorstep laughing at some of these silent films (this does not even include Charlie Chaplin or Buster Keaton works!). One of my favorites is a story about suburb life - in the 1910's!!!! I was on THE FLOOR. DECEASED WITH LAUGHTER.  Good stuff.  You know what else is good stuff? Silent Horror Films. Let's check out: The Unkno ..read more
