Despite everything, there's still a glimmer of lightness anytime Burial drops a surprise EP. This one is particularly gorgeous, grandiose, widescreen emotion that completely floored me on first listen.

death stranding is beautiful because you’ll have a cutscene that grapples with death and grief followed by a notification that someone named slavic_hardbass7 used the road you built

I didn’t think the second season of The Rehearsal could top the first but it already has and we’re only halfway through. When Nathan Fielder warns you that what you’re about to see “might seem weird,” you best believe him.

Been experimenting with some out of date film stock, the results aren’t always great but sometimes you’ll get an abstract smearing of colour that looks really cool even if you’re not quite sure what you were originally taking a photo of.

just watched The Eel (1997). Absolutely incredible film. Every other scene had a shot that was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen in a movie.

I love a Vinegar Syndrome delivery day. Such a great month from them and their partners, especially the always reliable Kani and Bleeding Skull. We’ve got HK black magic, a collection of AGFA mixtapes, a British thriller starring Sting, a Filipino classic, high-brow pinku, and no-budget punk art.

Favourite first time viewings of January: Love Hotel (1985), Disembodied (1998), The Italian Connection (1972), and The Sting of Death (1990).
Wouldn’t’ve stumbled across these if not for the excellent releases from Third Window Films, Bleeding Skull, Raro Video, and Radiance Films, respectively.

Declaring war on TMDB because they retitled the 1987 slasher ‘Blood Rage’ to the censored ‘Nightmare at Shadow Woods’ cut. An admin insisted it was the original title and cited Wikipedia as a source. We must destroy TMDB to save Letterboxd. It’s Blood Rage, the movie is titled Blood Rage.
