  • Shadow of a Doubt

    Shadow of a Doubt 1943

    ★★★★ Watched 29 Nov 2024 2

    The last major Hitchcock I had to cross off my list. Been putting it off for years after watching the loose remake STOKER, but this is just as f'k up and weird in its own 1943 way. Joseph Cotton is amazing. Hitch noir angles are superb.

  • Salem's Lot

    Salem's Lot 2024

    ★ Watched 17 Oct 2024

    Success was not their only mothafuckin' option and HBO did grow old in Salem's Lot. This was barely a movie lol. Terrible yikes.

    Subtlety is overrated. Funny is funny. Truth is truth.
