Books. Films. Music. Twin Peaks.
Fix your hearts or die.
Do you remember when you'd pray
To never see the day
When someone would make you feel this way
'Cause you knew
They would cut right through you
And once inside, you were afraid they'd find
Nothing to hold on to

The Invention of Sound
By Chuck Palahniuk

"Since the dawn of films when young women had been tied to railroad tracks and tied to logs sent into huge sawmill blades, Hollywood had never lacked new ways to take pretty girls apart."

Bonus points for unexpected Wylie Gustafson reference.

Charlie Hunnam is quite intriguing in his portrayal of the ultimate pop-culture influencer Ed Gein.

Blow Up (1966)
Dir.: Michelangelo Antonioni
David Hemmings, Vanessa Redgrave

A WTF movie. There are about 10 mins of a decent (if unresolved) slow-burn thriller buried in this 1:51:00 "quintessential '60s movie." + An odd cameo performance by the Yardbirds.

Kill List (2011)
Dir.: Ben Wheatley

This took some turns.
