Re: Eminem: 'Revival'
When he did that Trump freestyle it made me feel really old. Eminem went from being controversial, rebellious and edgy to being a conformist pantywaist aping mainstream celebrity-politics. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2017/dec/07/the-woke-slim-shady-understanding-eminem-in-the-age-of-trump" onc...

The Treatment (2014) - A serialkillerfilm where a tormented detective attempts to track down a pedo-ring. There's a handful of excellent crimefilms from Belgium and this is near the top of the list. The payoff is great and it is generally a wellcrafted movie. The Double Lover (2017) - This is Franco...

Better Watch Out (2017) - Decent Christmas-themed comedy-thriller. War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) - My favorite in the series. Each movie got better. Hounds of Love (2017) - Grim Australian kidnapthriller. Not very memorable. The Girl on the Train (2016) - I thought this would be some trashy ...

It (2017) - Not bad but this is a bit of a pointless remake. The clown isn't as creepy and some of the children are very bad actors. The fat kid in particular. Wake In Fright (2017) - The movie was turned in to a miniseries. The lead is a bit dull and the movie doesn't recreate the tension of the or...

Re: What movie did you watch today?
mother! is a horrorfilm. Most of the film plays like a haunted-house horror. Also the main feeling the movie impresses on the viewer is horror. Not sure how much horror-y you want it to be. It annoys me a bit that whenever there is an intellectually ambitious horrorfilm people want to call it a "psy...

^ It was tremendous. What a film. So much brutal asskicking, not from start to finish but in swift, devastating blows.

The Wave (2015) - Geiranger, Norway, is one of the most beautiful places I have visited. One of the mountains of the fjord is in danger of eroding, however, which would cause a tsunami and destroy the village. This is a disasterfilm built on that premise.

I didn't get that feeling. To me it felt like Larry never left, right from the first scene.
Love what appears to be the general narrative of the season. Very excited to see where he goes with it, and in particular how far he goes.

Zulu (2013) - Cape Town buddycop film with Ghost Dog and Orlando Bloom. Making a post-apartheid Lethal Weapon is a pretty genius idea and the grim tone and tense action was spot-on, but the eleborate conspiracy made the story messy rather than the tightly-knit thriller it would have been otherwise. ...

Are any of the Manson films any good btw? Or documentaries? I don't know too much about what happened but I'm not sure I'm interested enough to read a book about it, which would prob be the right choice.
