There's a moment in the sequel to Open Water when everyone on a boat that has anchored so they can go swimming realize that A) they forgot to unfurl the ladder, B) they aren't able to climb back in, and C) there's a baby crying on board. Absolutely the best bit from an inferior sequel.
Ha! I'm down. Instead of calling it Open Water: Adrift I wish they would've called it Open Water: More Open Water
Heretic was pretty great up until the end. A fun ride nonetheless!

Short film from Coralie Fargeat shot in 2014 and inspiration for The Substance. More sci-fi than body horror. Starring Vincent Colombe, one of the baddies in Revenge, another Fargeat banger.

And don’t sleep on Haynes’s May, December. That was one of the best movies I watched last year.
Yes, very very good flick
He has a bunch of winners. Mildred Pierce mini-series on HBO also great.
Once I get through everything once, I will have to circle back to Safe and Velvet Goldmine, neither of which I've seen since they were in theaters. Two of my very very favorite movies of that decade. Like almost so good that I don't want to see them again.

Late to the Parasite party. Was good but overhyped.

Almost inevitable. I agree though it's good. Watch Memories of Murder.

Sick at home today so give MoM a spin - not bad, but too long for this old man… mighta been my semi feverish state, but had trouble holding my attention
Always love me some Korean cinema tho - rewatched “train to busan “ last week - such a great film- that little girl is amazing. For a zombie flick it has lots of touching/ insightful moments

I''ve watched the LOTR trilogy for the ???th time. It has some minor flaws, but overall it shits all over the Dune films.

American Fiction is hilarious with excellent writing and a great cast. Paired it with Wonder Boys which was also quite good.

Wonder Boys is a very dependable comfort film for me. Smart adaptation of the source material.
