I remember seeing the shorts for this ^^^ when I was a kid but have never seen it. Not as good as Divergent, but then the books get progressively weaker as well. Still not a bad movie though.

And worse still. Yay, fun explosions and action scenes, but the story is utter balls, and it's a waste of a stellar cast.

I've passed many a happy hour listening to Wax Trax! Records, and this was a happy hour and a half getting to know the story behind this record store and label.

Continuing my way through the Bong Joon-Ho bo set:
I still have the black and white version of Parasite to go. I think I will watch it close to the original version so I can compare them better. Bong Joon-Ho is now easily one of my favourite directors. As good as Parasite is, I think Memories of Murder is easily his best film.

Excellent rock opera reimagining of Phantom of the Opera. Music and bad guy care of Paul Williams. My choir mistress mentioned this movie the other day, saying how Daft Punk had taken a lot of inspiration for their costumes from the movie. I can definitely see it. Good fun and good music. Surprisingly frank documentary about Chris Holmes. While W.A.S.P. might still be having delusions of grandeur, Holmes knows exactly where he fits in the world, and is quite happy to keep playing small venues to small but appreciative audiences. This doesn't shy away from anything, including Holmes' alcoholism and brief marriage to Lita Ford. There's a bit of live footage, and he still has the chops, even in his 60s. And unlike W.A.S.P., Holmes still plays "Fuck Like A Beast" live. I know which one of the two I'd prefer to see these days...

Fucking hell, this thing is all over the place! It's a collection of sketches of various lengths and qualities. And there's a shitload of unexpected nudity.

A good cast but this biographical crime movie just failed to resonate with me.

Decent if a little slow and uneventful. I liked the brooding ominous atmosphere though. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1600196/

The movie equivalent of a photocopied fanzine exploring a movement that wasn't really a movement, but more a place where the misfits could fit.

This was fucking good. I can see why it's so highly rated.

I was shocked at the end. This is an essential example of so-called "spoiler films".

I thought I'd figured it out about halfway through, but I wasn't certain until right at the end.

That's one of those movies where you're bloody lucky if you don't know the twist before you see it, like The Sixth Sense. Movies so well known that pop culture will just casually spoil them.

An intriguing film. Pity it's presented in the most dull and droning way imaginable.

Oh, I remember this. My head was blown away in the end. It was really hard to watch as a school kid but helpful.

It was made on a tiny budget.

While this does feel like it should have had some 20 to 30 minutes shaved from the running time, it's a pretty underrated J-Horror otherwise. Often has a genuinely creepy atmosphere, though it certainly owes something to 1998's Ringu as well.

Second watch of this excellent atmospheric vampire movie (it could do without the hip-hop music being totally at odds with that though), which treats vampirism like a drug addiction.
