Famously! Kamala loves the trans! Her campaign had so much pro-trans policy! It's definitely not her fault she lost!

yesterday with TOUCH ME, Addison Heimann's divisive and gorgeous tentacle horror comedy(?). Some moments were absurd, others were too real, but I definitely enjoyed the ride. Don't ever trust the smooth talking nice guyโข๏ธ in a track suit! ๐ฝ๏ธ

QUEENS OF THE DEAD is a campy blast with a "cast full of queens, but no divas". Watching it with the crowd

Ian Tuason's debut feature THE UNDERTONE is the terrifying microbudget gem that horror nerds dream of finding. It has creepy pasta, death bed eeriness, Catholic nightmare lore. Audio that will make you rethink ever using headphones. You'll never sleep again!

last night: Annapurna Sriram's Fucktoys is a capitalist tragedy masquerading as a sexploitation comedy. She proves herself to be a talented performer with incredible comedic timing. I laughed, I was horrified, I fell in love with 16mm film!!

Still thinking bout last night's screening of It Ends
@fantasiafestival.com
The writing was so good & I was deeply moved. Alex Ullom really nailed the dread - apathy - hope pipeline, and I feel lucky that I got to see it!!

Sweetness was so painful to sit through (complimentary) because you want Rylee to win but she definitely should not win. Excellent writing, great performances, and an incredible blue carpeted bathroom. A+++

Yesterday

I saw The Wailing (2025) and I was deeply uncomfortable the entire time (complementary). I had no idea where it was going, I gasped out loud, I was very sad when it ended.

"Joy" is not just a feeling that occurs randomly, it's something to curate and cherish as an act of rebellion against our violent, delusional systems ๐

Cachรฉ (2005) Je voulais que tu sois prรฉsent... Though this is a deeply disturbing movie, it's worth watching twice. Once u understand Georges & Majidโs history, with whom do u empathize? How does ur view change once u understand what has been hidden? Review ๐

I just watched Full Metal Jacket for the first time, and I'm now realizing how many men have quoted this movie at me unironically like its a cool funny joke and not a representation of how war is self-perpetuating, violent and collectively punishing.

Killers of the Flower Moon is a masterclass in the banality of colonial violence and the emptiness of the justice system. It was indulgent, haunting and confronting. I haven't stopped crying since I left the theater.
