Thoughts: Obviously an allegory for colonialism and imperialism, but there are very interesting (obvious) implications that I do not come across frequently. There's obviously the overt freakery of that two guys in a cannibalism club implies and The Bear Trap Wedding, but theres also a very interesting point of colonialism as seductive, and brave., and what that means for Boyd. Anyway I love blood and this has a lot of that, the movie is insane and I am insane about it! The scenery is gorgeous and the soundtrack is kind of goofy but lovely. Though I'm generally skeptical of the use of Indigenous American mythos, my basest knowledge of the wendigo would indicate that It Kind Of Applies Alright Here. Please, if you're scrolling through and you clicked on this poster, you have to watch it.

Thoughts: Not quite sure what i just watched; not in a bad way just in a what exactly was the story about. I understand the portaying of a failing marriage, where the husband sees the wife as harboring something that is perverse as the cause of the separation, the wife histrionic and the husband obsessive, both dancing around the idealized version they had of each other. This is nothing new or particularly entertaining to me, as we dont ever really understand what that something is. I'm curious about what exactly was the understanding they reached at the end. Maybe one day i'll understand german divorces. Her acting was phenomenal.

Thoughts: I loved the family scene at the end, though not much happened throughout the whole movie? or maybe i was just hoping for it to be faster paced, idk. With older movies i tend to be unaware fo the context surrounding them, and therefore their significance, but it wasn't a bad film!

Thoughts: Hmmmmmm.. Interesting! I don't know excatly what I can take from it but I think it's very cool. As is the common theme in summer camp movies theres a lot of talk about puberty, and it definitely matters thematically, im just not sure how. I'm trying to imagine what this movie might have stirred in its contemporary setting, given that I believe were meant to side with her in her revenge killings, but i imagine the gender reveal party mightve made people averse to Angela. Also why the random shot of their dad with a man in bed????? Well its not random but all the reasons I can think for it are kind of bad. Also I loved the death scenes... aside from the weird sexual way Judy died?

Thoughts: I DON'T CARE IF IMDB doesnt tag this as horror! It very much is! It was a wonderful movie, which I couldn't find the words to form an opinion after watching, so it needs a rewatch. Still, yeah.

Thoughts: What a silly, goofy movie with a stupid pulp sci-fi plot (this in not a bad thing). I was genuinely expecting the movie to be more focused on, you know, the character it is named after, but it centers wayyy more the creator, Jeffrey Franken, which disappointed me a tad. Additionally, I'm note entirely sure what the messaging around sex workers is? Specially cause Jeffrey is insane, seeing them as less than and killing them; agreeing that they work in precarious situations, followed by planning to make a -super crack- to kill for the spare parts needed for his wife. Ok. Still, it was an entertaining watch!! I loved Patty; she deserved so much more, including a movie centered on her huh who said that.
