A ★★★½ review of Elio (2025)
Elio is the story of a young kid who is actively trying to get himself kidnapped by aliens. Although if this were a real, I'm pretty sure that Elio would be setting himself up to human trafficked. How...

Ah the 30's... when the best way to hit on a girl was to tell her that the book she wrote is a giant piece of shit. That's hot.
A ★★★ review of When Ladies Meet (1933)
You've got to love movies from the 1930's, where hitting on a girl includes telling her that the book she wrote is a giant piece of shit. When Ladies Meet is a very old-school mentality of film. Like ...

Just your average film about a high school girl who takes orders from God, fights crime, hunts down sex traffickers, sees and talks to ghosts, and still has time to star in her high school play. The busy life of a teenager these days.
A ★★½ review of Saint Clare (2024)
Behold, Saint Clare, the patron saint of murdering the hell our of human traffickers. Actually, I did a google search and it's much weirder than that. Saint Clare of Assisi is apparently the patron sa...

If you like Troma-style horror, Lovecraftian monsters, body horror, and boob jokes, I think you'll dig Killer Rack, about a murderous set of mammaries.
