Miyazaki on an acid trip.

A masterpiece of nonsense.

4.5/5 ⭐

51/ House (1977)

I had no idea what to expect going in but it certainly wasn't this.

What a fucked up fever dream of a movie. Evil Dead comparisons are justified even if the vibe of the film couldn't be more different. Bizarrely brilliant throughout.

22/ Bring Her Back

I've never seen @dionisea.bsky.social react so viscerally to a horror film. Usually nothing phases her but this one really got under her skin.

A little slow, but great concepts and some fantastic shots. Trails off a little towards the end but Sally Hawkins gives it her all throughout.

Along with When Evil Lurks this movie really got me.
My teeth hurt.
Help.

21/ In a Violent Nature

Terrible choice of movie as I was expecting loud, slasher action to stop me dozing off and instead got a series wonderful walks through the woods.

@dionisea.bsky.social and I struggled to stay awake but really liked it nonetheless.

Cosy horror is a thing now and I love it ❤️ Can I get a 6 hour ASMR walking through the woods video please?

The most relaxing horror movie I have ever had the pleasure to watch.

So far the best book I have read this year is without a doubt The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by @sgj.bsky.social. Left me heartbroken and angry. It's not an easy read and it shouldn't be.
An instant classic.

On a lighter note, here's a photo of a beautiful sunset, to remind us all that the world is fucking burning down and we just standing there watching it and writing a angry posts on a social media platform.

I've been in Italy for just over a day and I have made the irreparable mistake of watching the fucking news.

Ah... Also fuck Trump and that sausage fingers of a king, and yes, you don't even deserve the capital K.

Dionisea @dionisea.bsky.social · Sep 17

Fuck Salvini for initiating a minute of silence for Charlie Kirk.
Fuck you Berlusconi & your stupid fucking bridge, how the fuck do you still piss me off and you've been dead for fucking years now.
Fuck you and fuck off.

A ★★★★ review of Parthenope (2024)

📽️ 115/ Parthenope

The trailer was a total bait and switch.

@dionisea.bsky.social wanted to return to her beloved Naples but this was not the way she expected it.

A film to experience rather than understand I think.

Evocative and enigmatic. The reviews suggest the film fails to achieve what it sets out to do for a wider audience but I find myself unable to justify a lower rating. Brought to mind Tinto Brass's Pap...

Happy Long Walk Day!

I was lucky to see the movie early, and to talk to the guy who wrote it. JT Mollner take a bow!

We discuss the dark comedy and hideous gun violence. Mark Hamill’s iconic heel turn. Creative control and casting choices. We talk about walking the walk

I finally let the hype overcome my reticence to delve into KPop.

Fantastic movie for a Saturday afternoon.

Nimona fused with Josie & The Pussycats makes for something pretty damn special.

Listening to the @talkscaredpod.bsky.social episode about Weapons has made me realise that the film is absolutely saying something about school shootings.

It seems so unrealistic that the country isn't in uproar after all these kids go missing but that's exactly what happens after a school shouting

A ★★★★½ review of The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988)

Dionisea @dionisea.bsky.social · Jul 28

The first one that came to mind is the Monk and Robot series by @beckychb013.bsky.social

I often think of them and I wonder what they're up to.

Becky, we want more books plsssss!

Kieran @kieran.blue · Jul 28

For me it would have to be @robinhobb.bsky.social's wonderful Farseer trilogy (and subsequent other books in the series).

Fitz and the Fool deserve the full HBO huge budget treatment.

The Skiffy and Fanty Show @skiffyandfanty.com · Jul 28

If you could adapt any work of literature into a TV series (and you can only pick one), which would you pick and why?

We'll go first. Nalo Hopkinson's Midnight Robber. Seeing that world come to life with walls of Caribbean culture would be real fascinating to see on TV. So good.

Your turn!

📽️ 88/ The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!

In preparation for the new movie we thought we would revisit the originals.

@dionisea.bsky.social was howling with laughter throughout.

I love films packed with background gags. It feels like they're rewarding you for paying attention to the details.
