Didn't mind American Psycho, but the actual text is so much more disturbing. I mean, c'mon, the "transmission from Bono." Really... Pages on Whitney Houston and Huey Lewis and pocket sqaures and dinner reservations? The Habitrail?!

Its an awesome freakin movie, haven't seen a movie in a while that made me feel shocked by such a simple plot. I promise everyone on here will love it.

I just watched Frozen and it was rad. I could not stop laughing. Adam Green is a twisted freak and I think I might love him.

Question: Why did they never zip up their hoods? They're fucking freezing to death and they don't remember how to work zippers and snaps? I have a couple other quibbles, such as wound continuity, but mostly it was super.

there are movies that try to be weird and succeed, movies that try and don't, and then there are movies that are weird because that's just how they came out. i watched this one today and it may be the strangest thing i've ever seen- japanese film House (or Hasu) from 1977. it was so odd in every way that i think i am going to have to buy it.

criterion released a new version about a month ago and it's on netflix. there's a documentary, a freaky 40 minute film 'emotion' and an interview with the guy who made 'house of the devil'.

I think I typed in the wrong title. Netflix is hard. Never mind though, because some friends came over last night and randomly brought it with them. IT IS RAD. We are definitely ordering it.

Oh, OK. I saw that. I loved HotD too. His first flick, The Roost, aint bad. Its one of those "metafilms" with Tom Noonan starring in the Creature Feature host role.

I saw that a week or two ago. I'm not exactly sure what to think of it. There are many points where I am unwilling to suspend disbelief. (Those two characters had a cabin *that* far back in the woods?!) Just what the hell was going on, there? It seems like there are mythological allusions, but I'm not sure what they are. The grinding wheel was a little much. But at the end, I get the feeling that movie just isn't sure what kind of movie it wants to be. Is it some kind of feminist statement? It is some Crying of Lot 49, kind of thing, where there is this whole subculture that is invisible until one is initiated into it? What the hell.

Of course, the "unsimulated sex" held my attention. In a trainwreck sort of way.

Seen any other Lars Von Trier flicks? Most of em are symbolically top-heavy and owe A LOT to Bergman. He's first and foremost a great cinemaphotographer and secondly a tremendous cynic. But this doesn't usually translate to something coherent or even remotely linear really...

Element of Crime is interesting. Breaking the Waves (was that the title?) and Dancer in the Dark are less symbolic (read: Art Fag) but no less confrontational and cancerous.
