The camera held on him in that final image for a bit, and I immediately had one of my laughing fits because of his unreadable expression.
A man is asking, "Why do you onlynsculpt human subjects in erotic poses?" A woman is saying, "It's my specialty." The man from photo one is just standing there with his brows scrunched down like he's puzzled.

Sex of the Witch (1973)

You know what that means? Letterboxd reviewers probably gave it two stars for being boring! 😅
This may be a first-time viewing. Not sure.

Whirlpool (1970)
José Ramón Larraz (writer/ director)

The directorial debut of Larraz.

Sheba, Baby (1975)

Late afternoon. Dark outside. Lights are down.
Maybe not as tough as the Jack Hill movies, but Grier is terrific, and William Girdler (Abby, The Manitou) is no slouch.

Godzilla Vs Biollante (1989)

Reached the end of Outer Worlds 2.
One of the best games I've played this year. Fun and absurd. Made me laugh a bunch.
Time to say farewell to my character, this kinda non-binary Benicio Del Toro looking lady.
