  • Bronson 2009

    ★★★★½ Added

    Pure stylish brilliance from director Nicolas Winding Refn. Top notch performances by all, anchored by a towering bravura performance from Tom Hardy, which frequently becomes a fabulous one-man show in itself. Near perfect.

  • From Hell 2001

    ★★★ Added

    Problematic, conspiratorial, but entertaining play on the Jack the Ripper story. The Hughes brothers do a good job of capturing a Hammer feel. The cast is quite good. Ian Holm is stellar as always, Coltrane and Depp do their level best, a somewhat miscast Heather Graham is passable.

  • The Whisperer in Darkness 2012

    ★★★½ Added

    You gotta admire what these motivated Lovecraft-geeks have done here, and with their prior silent adaptation of "The Call of Cthulhu". Both films are shot on the double cheap in the true, modern guerilla-filmmaking spirit. They are also the most faithful Lovecraft adaptations ever produced.

  • Daisies 1966

    ★★★★½ Added

    A non-narrative, surreal, dadaist, explosion of a movie. Superbly and energetically performed by its two non-professional actors. Strikingly shot in every look from the inkiest black and white to the most blown-out color. Orgiastic, subversive, feminist, transgressive, and utterly fantastic.
