    I like the halloween theme of the opening episode. The great Pumpkin returns, sidekick villain Musk is set to streamline the US government and RFK lays in wait as angel of death to become the new minister of health. This season is going to be off the charts

    Killer Joe is totally awesome. On the Drama featuring Murderous Psychopath end of the "Horror" spectrum I highly recommend these two:

    Make sure to get the 2023 OG and not the neutered waste of time remake that just came out:

    A pretty & wild ride:

    Totally over the top rape & revenge caper. Debut movie of Coralie Fargeat who more recently shot the before mentioned The Substance

    Late Night With the Devil was a lot of fun. Here are a few highlights from recent and not so recent viewings:

    There are several movies thematizing the legend of La Llorona, this is the one that matters:

    Not mindblowing or anything but surprisingly enjoyable while true to the original series:

    Trying to watch all the Friedkin's I haven't seen yet and, speaking of crime in the 80s, I just saw To Live and Die in LA.  For all it's faults, I really enjoyed the ride.  Like Cobra, it has an OTT car chase.

      


    Thanks for making me feel old, I just had to google "OTT"... I have this one lined up next. I remember seeing a documentary about French Connection where it was claimed that the main car chase was shot in the early morning hours on un-blocked streets. Can you imagine stumbling out of an after hours, hailing a cab and getting caught up in some shit like that?

    Jade, which I haven't seen yet, is said to feature another memorable car chase.

    I'm currently re-watching William Friedkin's movies. Killer Joe seems even more baddass than the first time but The Sorcerer... goddamn... what a prime example for an underrated/forgotten master piece. I saw this first on tv around 1981, never in cinema, really hope I get to change this some time.



    Great nod to the movie he shot just before. Caught this when the camera was sweeping across the hood of one of the trucks, leading up to the trip:
