I can't say I had high hopes for this movie (something about the previews and descriptions tripped alarm bells), but I didn't expect it to be downright repulsive.

If you know Fugazi and their refusal to swim with the current, then you'll have a good idea how their documentary works. Whether that's good or bad is subjective.

Watching the original Austin Powers. It occurs to me that a villainous character based on a Donald Pleasence character is played by Mike Myers. A man named Michael Myers parodying a character portrayed by the man who played Dr. Loomis. Mind. Blown.

A ★ review of Unmasked Part 25 (1989)
Reading the description of this movie and its title, one would assume that this is a straight-up horror-comedy riff on slasher movies. That's what I thought. That's what I expected. What I didn't expect was for more than half the run time to be taken up by long-winded conversations on existential musings about nature versus nurture, love's ability to both see past flaws and miss them entirely, and whether fate is an immutable force or not. I sure didn't expect relationship drama and a man battling sexual inadequacy compared to his partner's broader experience level. And I definitely didn't expect

There’s no denying the similarities, but Tarantino didn’t invent siege movies. Unless he went back in time and made Rio Bravo, Assault On Precinct 13, Dog Day Afternoon, and dozens of other movies.
