Emil M. Antonowsky Gimmie Sopor Gimmie Sopor Yesterday I watched Ben Wheatley's The Sightseers Just watched this. Wow.
terminalsunset Anyone else watch Let's Start a Cult? Very dumb, but I liked it. Trying to go for a Sandler/Farley golden era comedy feel but within an indie framework. I suppose you have to like Stavros Halkias a lot for it to work at all. It's the perfect example of a movie that was a 5/10 but I also liked it. The last throwaway joke killed me.
Dodge Last Friday the “illegal” re-master of THE PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE followed by an in-person Q&A with national treasure Paul Williams was peak movie-going.

Man I went and saw Phantom at the Clinton a few weeks backs then saw this was happening. Meant to put it in my calendar but forgot.
Rapid Adapter I saw "I'm Still Here" in the theater today. About the Brazilian military dictatorship disappearing a dissident in 1970. Based on true story. Especially terrifying in the current political context. Killer, killer soundtrack, as you could guess.
Al Dorado Saw the Dylan movie a week ago. It was fine. I'm kind of over slick musician biopics. At least it was at the small fancy theater that sells beer and taro gelato. The Brutalist is playing there now so think we're gonna check that out next.
BARELY HUMAN Gimmie Sopor If you're looking for a legit '80s arthouse punk movie, check out the German dystopian sci-fi flick Decoder on YouTube. Featuring Einstürzende Neubauten's F.M. Einheit as an anti-hero noise musician and prominent counterculture figures such as William S. Burroughs and Genesis P-Orridge in supporting roles. this look's sick! will add it to my list... on the topic of German sci-fi's, watched World on a Wire recently, a made-for-TV two parter by Fassbinder about a simulation model that gets outta control, proto-Matrix stuff that i'm surprised i'd never heard of til my partner told me about it -- it ruled!

Love World on a Wire. I'm generally not too big on sci-fi stuff but have a soft spot for the lower-tech projects. Went on a Fassbinder binge a couple years ago and that was a definite highlight, alongside Lola and Fox and His Friends.
ratcharge Hadn't seen Planet Terror by Robert Rodriguez in ages, watched is yesterday and had a good time, even if it was a bit slower than what I remembered.
Mor Some very excellent movies in this thread already. I recently watched Leos Carax's latest, It's Not Me, and yesterday I watched his first, Boy Meets Girl. I've been really into post-French New Wave French movies lately I suppose!
11th hour stubble finally watched that wrecking crew doc, pretty fun thing to watch while stuck in bed with the flu.
