Lips of Blood 1975

★★★ Watched 01 Oct 2024

Not a 'good' movie in the traditional sense, but dreamlike, and women lose their clothes a lot. Some nice gothic visuals.
Revenge 2017

★★ Watched 24 Sep 2024

Corelie Fargeat's new movie "The Substance" is damn great, but this precursor is pretty much overlong revenge trash.

Distant Sky 2018

★★★★½ Watched 12 Apr 2018

This live concert film comes close to rivalling the classic Talking Heads "Stop Making Sense" film as a definitive live document. It features Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds at the height of their powers, and also has wonderful, almost transcendental, scenes of audience participation, particularly towards the end.

Anthrocene
Jesus Alone
Magneto
Higgs Boson Blues

What the fuck did I just see?? (on MUBI; USA) - a fantasy family film, done make believe style in the American woods, like Jean Luc Godard's "Alphaville".... with kids swearing, drinking and punching grown men's balls. Also, it uses the music from "Cannibal Holocaust".
