Agreed. Civil War for obvious reasons but I really liked Longlegs. Nick Cage did a really fun performance and like I said, the imagery is really creepy in a way that calls back to older horror movies. I check r/horror every now and again for recommendations and the amount of hate that movie gets on there is absurd

[2/2]

Longlegs:

This movie seems like it got a lot of hate on release because of its marketing campaign. I knew nothing about it going in and loved it. Creepy imagery throughout that isn't overpowering at the same time, either. Very effective horror flick.

The Substance:

Wow. Genre-bending "body" "horror" with two phenomenal leads and a message more relevant today than every. Come for the hype, stay for the third act.

V/H/S Beyond:

Pretty schlocky 6th entry in a middling horror anthology series, so I wouldn't be surprised to see that it doesn't end up on many other lists, but I loved it just like I have for every other movie in the series. The final section alone makes it worth the watch even for newcomers, IMO.

Terrifier 3:

You either love the Terrifier franchise or you don't love it yet. The success of the series is unbelievable to see but it couldn't have happened to a more deserving one. Bonus points that Damien Leone knew that distribution for the movie would be fucked up like all the ones so he made it set during Christmas so the people who couldn't watch it in October didn't feel like they were missing out.

MadS:

What if 28 days later was a single-shot found footage movie set around some French ravers? Great, fun, and short(!) movie that I loved.

[1/2] Just scrolling through my "recently released" tab on Plex:

The Beekeeper:

Seriously, where did this movie come from?? Ridiculously fun and I usually hate action movies and Jason Statham. A tad long but the movie takes itself exactly as seriously as the audience does and it works so well.

Hundreds of Beavers:

Maybe my MOTY, I've just never seen anything like it in a full-length film. Super imaginative with a really cool Lumberpunk aesthetic to it.

Frogman:

Silly, stupid, and fun found footage about the fuckin' Loveland Frogman. Good movie that doesn't overstay it's welcome and has a surprisingly decent payoff. Watch with a group.

Civil War:

This movie got enough praise when it came out, so all I'll say is that I agree with it.

I Saw the TV Glow:

Watched this just the other day finally. Very dreamlike, very surreal, almost Lynchian in that it's a not-horror movie being played off as one.

In a Violent Nature:

A satire of old '80s slashers. Lots of time spent watching the killer walk through the woods. Me and my friends jokingly call it "In Some Silent Nature," but it gets my props just for taking such an left-field approach to the genre.

What's good for the feather is good for the flock in this case, then. If Trump has incentive to get American troops out of places they don't need to be, so be it. It's much preferable to the politicians who have an incentive to put American troops in places they don't need to be

It's a weird feeling seeing something you made exist independently of you. Like a decade ago, I made a .webm "How it feels to chew five gum" edit where I put in the ~4 second clip from the "Honeymooners" segment of V/H/S [1] (2011) where the guy gets his throat stabbed (people who have seen the movie will know what I'm talking about). I haven't seen it in a while but I know its out there... lurking on some 16 y/o's download files, just waiting to be posted on whatever forum I happen to be browsing at that point in time.

John F Kennedy said that at a time when the majority of Americans weren't overweight, undereducated, overworked, utterly dependant on their cars (which need the roads maintained by the government to work), and addicted to their phones. I don't think Americans have the physical or mental capability to wage an effective protest like what happened in the 20th century.

The Arctic chill has kept me inside for the better part of Thanksgiving weekend. Today, on day four, I decided to take the opportunity to paint some terracotta pots I had lying around and to plant some props that have had roots for a few weeks now.

I painted the pots with the milk paints from Fusion Mineral Paint's Swedish Collection. I wanted to use milk paint because of how quickly it weathers and chips and I think my succulents will look really nice in the pots once the paint cracks and the terracotta starts showing through again. There's a part of me that feels inauthentic for using a paint specifically made to age quickly, but I don't mind.

I had four cabo-style pots with saucers. The milk paint comes in a powder and needs to be mixed with water. The amount of water you add determines the darkness of the paint and the dry time. I ended up giving half of the pots about four coats of red paint and the other half the same amount of blue. After I the final coats were dried, I mixed up a small amount of white paint in a leftover medicine cup (the cup that comes on top of the bottles that you use to measure your dosage) and lined the rim of the pots and the saucers with one heavy pass.

I did all this on my kitchen counter on the plastic boot tray we keep by our front door. The good thing about milk paint is that it cleans up really easily, so even though I got a little bit on the counter, it wiped off easy.

I have a large cactus that stays outside year-round in a big terracotta pot that I painted several years ago in the same way. At this point, almost all of the red has chipped away. The only traces of it are near the bottom of the pot, inside the rim above the soil (about 1") and on the saucer. I think it looks beautiful and hopefully I can bring the pots I painted today outside during the summer and weather them the same way.
