Emmanuelle 4 1984
Sylvia Kristel plays Sylvia, a woman who wants to escape her old life and therefore her boyfriend Marc. To do that, she travels to Brazil where a team of plastic surgeons transforms her into a younger and totally different woman with the name Emmanuelle (Mia Nygren). From that alone, you might have guessed that this has little to nothing to do with the first three movies. But that's not necessarily a bad thing, as this is my favorite so far.…

That's Outrageous 1983
Most people know Fred J. Lincoln as 'Weasel' from Wes Craven's infamous shocker Last House on the Left. But first and foremost he was involved in the adult movie business, playing the roles of an actor, writer, producer, and director. I think Craven's film was supposed to be a hardcore feature before they decided against it. That's how he came on board with that. Anyway, That's Outrageous was his ninth directorial work ... and it's a great one.

Lurkers 1988
It's funny how little things of relevance are actually happening in this movie. But I love it for that reason. Roberta's cinematography and odd humor are on perfect display here.

H. Pachard #6-9 --- Taboo American Style is a pornographic four-part series that mimics the typical soap opera formula of its time. It follows 18-year-old Nina Sutherland (Raven) and her family consisting of her dad Harding (Paul Thomas), her mom Emily (Gloria Leonard), and her brother Tom (Tom…

Dark Glasses 2022
D. Argento #20 --- Going into Occhiali neri I was optimistic. I figured it would be at least better than his last two movies because it didn't have the troubled production of those. Thankfully I got exactly what I hoped for: a totally absurd story with nasty gore and a lot of fun to be had. I had the pleasure to watch it on its world premiere with the Maestro himself introducing it. Some cast members (including Asia and the…

Twin Peaks 1989
Watching the pilot episode at sunrise was magical. It's the perfect time of day to watch this. So many goosebumps moments. How everybody instantly knows what happened to Laura without knowing for certain is bone-chilling. The ending is absolutely terrifying as well. This is utterly brilliant in so many ways.
