i'm of the impression that the rape drove her nuts, and that her "gangbangs" were some sort of ritualistic attempts at controlling the events that had so scarred her. the rest (the "theory", the "feminism",the "empowerment", the "research", the endless razionalizations, the delusion of control) was bullshit. but this is not discussed in the documentary and it's left to the viewer to connect the dots. that poor woman may have been smart, but had serious mental issues which she acted out in painfully self-destructive ways. i hope she eventually got treatment.

anyway, an interesting cultural artifact that i first found in this cesspool-- i forgot who recommended it.

totally fucking right. depressing beyond belief

It's definitelay a case of a really good film that's had its credibility knocked by a raft of dodgy sequels and copycats. The thing I think most of these cash-ins miss is that Scream wasn't just clever, it was pretty scary too. One thing that could never be levelled at a film like, ahem, Scary Movie.

Ready To Rumble

so stupid it's almost tollerable, but it definitely helps to be a prowrestling fan first

Whoo! Possession, one of the best films ever! The one with Sam Neil in it, of course..

I think I'm finally gonna watch Tetsuo tonight... yeah I've had it since christmas. I dont know why I haven't watched it yet. but I'm psyched about it.

[atsonicpark]

As you should be. It's a masterpiece! One of the best films ever............

.......though as far as Tsukamoto films go, I prefer tokyo fist just a wee bit!

 

Imagine Tetsuo meets.. uhm.. Raging Bull, I guess.. with some weird sexual stuff, ultra-saturated colors, bizarre and fast-paced direction, and.. um... boxing.

I have that... but still to watch it!

[atsonicpark]

It's great. Just.. don't go into it with any real expectations and you'll love it. I will say there are some scenes in it, near the end, where the main character is standing all alone, staring at the camera, in all these different parts of Tokyo.. those are some of my favorite scenes of all time. Just a great film.

"The Bad Sleep Well" Great movie. I got to say I think I like Kurosawa's modern stories perhaps a little more then his samuri stories. I just like thier look, and he was so great at telling suspensful noir stories. I think they often get overlooked by his Samuri pictures.

I'm so happy I watched this again, it's my favourite movie.

I've just seen Revolutionary Road. Excellent film.

most fans hate it. I've seen it at least a dozen times. It's entertaining. It's like one of those "What if..." special edition comic books.
