  The Children 1980

  ★★★★ Watched by Emalie 26 Jun 2022

  This movie is played so straight with a lot of the interactions among the townspeople and sheriff/families sucking you in and making you forget that you're watching a movie with the absolute cornball premise of children with black manicures hugging people to their goopy deaths.

  Final shot is one for the books.

  The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003

  ★★★½ Rewatched by Emalie 26 Jun 2022

  Ruthlessly grimy, bloody, and dark, very 2003 in the not necessarily fun way. Effective, and Jessica Biel does great here I think.

  Mary Jane's Not a Virgin Anymore 1996

  ★★★★★ Watched by Emalie 27 Feb 2018 6

  "I tried to tell him that our lives are gonna change because of this, he just told me to not bother talking because he was gonna dub the video with the soundtrack from ERASERHEAD."
  
  
  That line made me actually almost spit take. I 'rewound' it like five times. This movie is everything. The femme punk soundtrack, the diy-vibe, the realness of sex and friendships, the openness in dialogue about female sexuality, rape, pregnancy, gender roles, power dynamics. And they all work at a fucking movie theater.
