The Black Cat 1989
You should always trust the dreams you have during a psychic bubble witch movie set apocalypse. These colors don't run, except they do. Green scuzzfuck witch slime from mouth to mouth, open wide and eat my witch puke. Levana's murder set pieces in rainbow black darklight. Let me tell you about baby. Baby is perfectly sedate. baby knows it's fate. My baby is a witch boy. Actress, Model, Dancer - these are the desired occupations of a sleeping witch, of a third mother. And with more glowy maternal confusion, a trilogy is closed. Fuck the Mother of Tears. Cozzi got it a right.

The content and quality is questionable but if you…

Portrait in Crystal 1983
ecstatic wuxia holograms chopped and screwed in a technicolor frenzy. Moves faaster than human comprehension. Whole scenes, chapters, the entire film passes through me but little to no threads are manageable. In hyperspeed ultraviolet crystal vision, you can only submit.

Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown 1988
This was my introduction to Almodovar and is my forever favorite.
When I first saw this film I would soon be entering the last echelon of my marriage. I didn't know it at the time but soon he would cheat, and I would catch him. I would have what I later realized was a nervous breakdown, and I would quit my job, digging us even deeper into poverty. I would lose forty pounds because I couldn't afford drugs or alcohol…
