    No One Will Save You

    ★★★½

    I’m not much for alien-based films but this is a bit of a treat— high on emotional sensibility and very minimal dialogue, good alien design based on 1959s abduction descriptions, and a somewhat odd muddled line between reality and escapism. 

    Also I’m kind of very in love with the house in this, it’s so pretty.

    This is just such a rich text to dig into, but also makes me cry because grief is a huge focus so every rewatch is hard.

    Van Helsing

    ★★★★½

    This movie is wonderfully entertaining and amazingly stupid and I love it very much. Preposterously questionable accents, complete ignorance of period appropriate costume design, Dracula’s incredibly strange camp performance of wildly oscillating moods, Van Helsing in a fabulous leather duster, a riotously good time with plenty of flair and action that even the modest budget’s CGI can be forgiven.

    ★★★★½

    Cinematic masterpiece. Bless low-budget, genre-catered, vaguely meta queer horror with cult actors in supporting roles.
