Abigail 2024
insane amounts of "hell yes!" one of the best horror comedies of all time. amazing performance from the ENTIRE cast. great practical effects & VFX. the muddled themes & those last 15 mins kinda hurt the film a bit. it feels like an eat-the-rich film and then it ends up being about the rich punishing those who steal from them & the thieves depending the benevolence of the rich to survive? idk. but still, i had a LOT of fun with it. matt…

i never do this, especially if there is an upcoming hrithik roshan dance, but took a walk while sher khul gaye started playing. i couldn't handle the film's jarring swings between bland rom-com stuff (there's a dead wife here too) & jingoistic hindustan…

Baby Reindeer 2024
i don't think any movie, show, or miniseries has made me laugh, cry, & sent chills down my spine as much as richard gadd's #babyreindeer did. the way it tackles the sexual harassment & abuse faced by men is riveting. and that ending? omg, i'll need some time to process this.
some of my scattered thoughts on the miniseries is up on digital mafia talkies. give it a read if you wanna.
