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.

This movie is made out of cinnabar and jade women who shop at supermarkets during the Anti-Christ apocalypse. Dawn of the Dead walking along the beach at night, holding hands with Jean Rollin.

Do you remember what they were like before our species reached maximum dysfunction? Why do we literally ask to be put in a Saw movie? This year we went to a local community haunted house - ended up in a pitch…

Rot 1997
Succeeds at completely grossing me out. Great scenester style SOV time capsule and also weirdly accurate and denigrating toward crust punks. Like it FEELS disgusting to watch, the couple in the film are so grimy, the world within the film is in fact rotting but unfortunately it's shot like dog shit and runs 20 minutes past it's prime. No light, camera kind of drifts off of the person speaking, backlighting, audio problems. What's good gets swallowed by technical difficulties and…

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…
