  The Cremator 1969

  ★★★★★ Watched by 𝕷𝖚𝖈𝖆 13 May 2021

  “I’ll save them all... the whole world.”

  A megalomaniacal spiral into madness, and an unforgiving angle into the formation of a genocide: delusions become policies, wildest dreams become living nightmares, men become monsters.

  Inland Empire 2006

  Watched by 𝕷𝖚𝖈𝖆 05 Sep 2021 1

  Unrateable, and medium shattering. 

  Like huffing the noxious fumes of burning Mullholland Drive celluloids, dissociating from your body and watching yourself have a grand mal seizure on the floor of an eastern European mansion, filmed on an unregistered hypercam 2.

  If they shaved off the last 45 minutes, scrapped the weak environmental blackpilling in the digital age subtext (or at least committed to an actual direction with it besides “dont be angry”) and preferably even set it in the time period it chases after, this could have been the perfect Batman movie.

  Looks great, sounds great, and is a lot of fun, just the victim of helicopter producers and shit writing.

  Also didn’t love Dano’s acting. Everyone else was great tho.

  Europa 1991

  Picture the most killer candyflip you’ve ever had. Now imagine having a three-way with Heather Graham and James Duval at an intimate Slowdive concert hosted on an MTV set during that candyflip. Now imagine doing a whip-it while you’re climaxing.

  That’s Nowhere.

  Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me 1992

  ★★★★★ Watched by 𝕷𝖚𝖈𝖆 04 Nov 2020

  “Everything but everything”

  Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is a prime example of Lynch firing on all cylinders: Horrifying, off-kilter, deranged, unbalanced, inexplicable, devastating and hilarious at times. If it’s a horror film, then the monster is depression, stemming from fractured relationships, impossibly high expectations, and the banality of American life that Twin Peaks so relentlessly satires throughout the show’s runtime. Its also a tragic character study that shatters our assumptions– as well as the town’s rosy memories– of…
