I enjoyed the visual aspects (and performances) of Vesper. Somehow I hadn't heard of this one at all when it released, but it was a decent story with some very cool world building and visuals. It actually feels a LOT like a Cronenberg film, but without the existential dread. Check it out if you are looking for a visual oddity.

I, unfortunately haven't had the time see many films that spark joy lately. But I did enjoy the visual aspects (and performances) of Vesper. Somehow I hadn't heard of this one at all when it released, but it was a decent story with some very cool world building and visuals. It actually feels a LOT like a Cronenberg film, but without the existential dread. Check it out if you are looking for a visual oddity.

I know this is the most classic of all, but if you haven't actually seriously watched it. It is a remarkable film in every way.

Egregious, also, great message to send to kids. You should be afraid to report the suspicion of a school shooting.

Night of the Hunter is without question, one of my favorite movies. When I saw this film for the first time, it opened my eyes to the wealth that can be found in classic cinema. The photography did things I have seen before or since. The imagery is masterful. The performances are intense. There are scenes in this film that are chilling. A visceral film.

Someone mentioned this film in one of our other discussions. I vaguely remember seeing it many years ago, but really couldn't remember many of the details, so I put it on this weekend. Hot damned if it wasn't so much better than I remember. Maybe the world we live in today feels a lot more relevant to the film then when I had seen it before, but I would gladly declare this film a masterpiece of it's time that holds up today. Don't let the newer remake besmirch your perception of this movie. It hits on several levels. Thinking of the context of the film, it is not difficult to see the concern that the auteurs of the time felt over the possibility, or even likelihood of nuclear war. If you haven't seen this one, it's worth your time.

I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the film.

Annorax from the Voyager episode "Year of Hell" really sticks in my mind. A tragic character doing incredible amounts of damage repeatedly to save one person. This episode is probably my favorite from the series.

Having seen most of the movies playing in our local theaters, we went to TMNT, I didn't have much in the way of expectations, but was surprised by how enjoyable this movie is. One of the most fun I've seen this year and the art style employed here is groundbreaking for the space. This movie along with the Spiderverse movies indicate that we might be looking at some very visually interesting animated movies in the future. Definitely worth seeing.
