Hard to catch everything in pictures, it's insanely populated :)
A good adaptation of a good book with an excellent cast. One of these days I'll read the sequel I bought long ago...

Time to unpack my Advent Calendar with 24 different teas. These will be half off after Christmas, but it also defies the purpose of an Advent Calendar...

I'm so sleepy after all these pork buns. Here's something that speaks for itself...

Finally crossed this off the watch list. It's a new restoration and looks pretty nice. It's a good drama and Chaney is amazing as always. This was MGM's first production ever, so it has lots of historical value too.

Highly recommended.

A great slice of renegade cinema. A young woman has visions of an egg, every time she closes her eyes; and then the egg begins to hatch. What I love about the film is that anything can happen and there are no familiar corners your mind can hide in. Some beautiful cinematography too.

I must confess that this didn't do much for me. If it was supposed to be a statement, the gore is too campy and the ending somewhat nonsensical. It has moments where you think it's going somewhere, but it kinda doesn't, and it's frustrating.

An over the top, absurd punk comedy that takes a hard swing at middle class conformity. The characters externalize what they usually keep inside; their fears, insecurities, obsessions and kinks. When material possessions fail to heal that, they must be destroyed.

Years before Caligula was made; Nagisa Oshima managed to get himself and his cast in trouble with this explicit masterpiece. It ventures where Pinku films dare not go, but offers an artistic experience on top of the nudity and gore.

A documentary about a man who ate too much pie...

Drenched in shadows and beautifully filmed; it's a true cinema classic that transcends its genre. The Criterion release comes with a nice booklet which contains the Carmilla story too. You don't get that with streaming.

Military grade lurid cinematic insanity. The last ten minutes are pure mayhem; with a catwoman ghost dishing out vengeance. You haven't seen such a good showdown in a sento since you fought E.Honda in Street Fighter II.

I decided to finally tackle this 200 minute arthouse mammoth. It's repetitive, ritualistic and quiet; and it's like that on purpose. That's what makes it art. That's what makes it interesting to watch. Delphine Seyrig is gorgeous, even when she's not playing a sexy vampire.

A surprisingly endearing movie for Ozu, about two little boys who refuse to speak until they get a TV. There's also another silent movie by Ozu, hidden in the special features, so don't miss it.

Summer Glau signed this for me a long time ago. The fading ink says "come with me if you want to live".

This show was excellent and probably the best Terminator stuff since Judgment Day. None of the later sequels were that engaging.

Wow, this is amazing. A very faithful adaptation and very well made for what it is. This modern low budget silent film was mostly shot in someone's backyard and features stop motion, cyclopean sets reminiscent of German expressionism and decent photography.

4 (very different) movies, one director: John Badham

Ordering food is so expensive. Delivery, tip, food price, service fee, membership fee, tax... I don't want to spend 50 bucks to eat mostly rice in front of the TV. I made a sandwich instead and bought two complete Superman animated shows on BluRay for the price difference.

The second volume only contains 20 minute shorts, but they're very funny. The restorations are excellent. Unless you've seen these in the theater 90 years ago, you haven't seen them like this. "Dirty Work" is one of my favorite things they ever did.

You might expect a supernatural monster movie of sorts, based on the title; but it's actually a revenge movie closer to Ms. 45, Thriller or I Spit on Your Grave. Around the 1 hour mark the blood fountains start and the last 15 minutes are a total escalation.
