Just so everyone knows, the "mass deportations will bring down high housing costs" is a soft eugenics argument that comes directly from the Tanton network. It's an old chestnut of theirs, just like saying that undocumented people take care away from veterans. It's all bullshit

In Fabric
★★★★
boxd.it/631XND

A stunning red dress haunts all of its wearers

The fashion industry has damaging consequences to all it touches

Arthouse-heavy on the metaphorical storytelling, in a (mostly) good way

Dating doesn't get better w/ age

Sheila's bosses suck more than Gwen

An American Werewolf in London
★★★★★
boxd.it/5V6Pnb

American tourist wrecks monstrous havok abroad.

Actually scary at-times horror-comedy; balances terror & funny well

David becomes survivor's guilt incarnate.

Of course the nurse goes out w/ him

Excellent makeup work; ridiculous wolf
David (portrayal: David Naughton) and Jack (portrayal: Griffin Dunne) stare ahead towards a strange sound while walking late at night in a foggy grassy area [Film: An American Werewolf In London] David (portrayal: David Naughton) talks despite his face and neck clearly torn to shreds of flesh [Film: An American Werewolf In London] Jack (portrayal: Griffin Dunne) screams in horror while staring at his grotesquely-disfigured hand [Film: An American Werewolf In London]

Marrowbone
★★★★★
boxd.it/5UlEeX

A family tries to survive their murderous father's actions.

Using blood money is a curse.

They hid the ball well on the siblings' fates.

Allie shines so bright; a kind soul (w/ questionable ethics).

Not a fun watch, but an engaging/enrapturing one
Billy (portrayal: Charlie Heaton), Jane (portrayal: Mia Goth), and Sam (portrayal: Matthew Stagg) sit huddled together in a blanket fort [Film: Marrowbone] A group of handmade dolls are sitting together next to a basket of lemons in a grass field [Film: Marrowbone] Allie (portrayal: Anya Taylor-Joy) smiles while looking at someone off-camera [Film: Marrowbone]

Opera (1987)
★★★★½
boxd.it/5UZDZ9

Young opera singer stalked by murderous fan.

I's like every creative choice failing in Phenomena was redone better here.

Eye needles a memorable torture tool; can't look away

Intense pace, lotta blood, awesome rock overlays

Ravens the real MVPs
Betty (portrayal: Cristina Marsillach) looks on in silent horror, her head bound, mouth covered, and eyes forced open due to needles taped to them [Film: Opera (1987)] Betty (portrayal: Cristina Marsillach) motions for a girl to be quiet as they hide from a killer [Film: Opera (1987)] An opera performer looks at out the crowd from the stage [Film: Opera (1987)]

Interview with the Vampire (1994)
★★★★
boxd.it/5Sr4zf

A vampire recounts his life story to a journalist.

Pitt, Cruise, Banderas, Slater, Dunst all excel in their roles.

Surviving for 200+ years ain't always so glamorous

Louis sure does light a bunch of fires..and had a bunch slaves...
Louis (portrayal: Brad Pitt) stares in awe at something off-screen [Film: Interview with the Vampire (1994)] Lestat (portrayal: Tom Cruise) sits with his legs resting on a dinner table [Film: Interview with the Vampire (1994)] Claudia (portrayal: Kirsten Dunst) angrily yells and demandingly points and something off-screen [Film: Interview with the Vampire (1994)]

Jacob's Ladder (1990)
★★★★★
boxd.it/5SAeXT

A soldier's past and future life flashes before his eyes as he dies.

Time jumps & biblical metaphors galore.

Spotlights numerous haunting issues, incl. post-war PTSD, grief from child loss

I understand the Chainsaw Man OP reference better now
Jacob Singer (portrayal: Tim Robbins) walks down a dark, seemingly abandoned train tunnel [Film: Jacob's Ladder (1990)] Jacob Singer (portrayal: Tim Robbins) awakens alone on a dirty old metrorail traincar, awaiting it to reach his destination [Film: Jacob's Ladder (1990)] Gabe (portrayal: Macauley Culkin) sits at the bottom of a darkened staircase [Film: Jacob's Ladder (1990)]

The Stepford Wives (1975)
★★★★½
boxd.it/5Sofwv

Big-city woman tries to avoid becoming a tradwife

Suburbia a pox on society; insulates communities from new/progressive ideals

All the men just want bangmaids for their personal fiefdoms

Uncanny valley in effect w/ the tradified ladies
Joanna Eberhart (portrayal: Katharine Ross) holds up a Nikon camera to her face to take a picture [Film: The Stepford Wives (1975)] Joanna Eberhart (portrayal: Katharine Ross) and Bobbie Markowe (portrayal: Paula Prentiss) look on as Carol Van Sant (portrayal: Nanette Newman) looks towards someone off-camera [Film: The Stepford Wives (1975)] The eponymous Stepford wives, grouped together in similarly styled outfits, standing together in a grocery store, staring eerily ahead [Film: The Stepford Wives (1975)]

The Crazies (1973)
★★★
boxd.it/5Sm7pn

Gov't attempts a coverup with deadly results.

Encapsulates small-town fears of Big Government takeovers, complete w/ martial law

In this conflict, utilitarian principles > individual freedoms

Classic biohazard suits

Can't not think of COVID
People in full-body white biohazard suit inspect potentially infected human bodies on the ground, prep them to be burned [Film: The Crazies (1973)] A soldier in a full-body white biohazard suit points a gun towards people behind the camera view while inside a house [Film: The Crazies (1973)] Movie poster for The Crazies (1973)
