#Watching THE HOST

Bong Joon Ho's monster movie based on a true story shows the true dangers of owning a food stand so near to the water.
Funny and thrilling, it's everything you'd ever want from a Korean monster #movie and even some things you don't like smarmy white people doing nefarious things.
One of the best #movies of the aughties and as a professional archer*, I'm glad to see my sport represented.
Host a watch party and see this again and make the mhost of your time alone. Maybe prepare yourself some thost.

#Watching WELCOME TO MARWEN

One of those movies that's been on my watchlist forever but just now choosing to see it.
The real story behind the movie is compelling enough to make this watchable, even if it is directed for maximum schmaltz by Robert Zemeckis...the director of Forrest Gump. rolls eyes
The acting is subtle. Everything is on Afterschool Special mode to the nth.
A relatively quite performance by Steve Carell keeps everything grounded until it isn't.
Female characters literally reduced to dolls.
Worth a watch. Once. So much syrup going down but you'll get through it.

BREAKING AND ENTERING

Anthony Minghella's well acted and well meaning domestic drama has its moments, but it too often stalls with random subplots and you're distracted by Jude Law's fake British accent.
Give it up Jude Law, we know you sound like Fran Drescher when they yell 'Cut'!
It feels like obvious awards bait and its 2 hour running time seems like 2 hours and 15 minutes.
A good movie that could have been great if you cut 20 minutes and three story strands.
And Juliette Binoche with that fake Mexican accent. Somebody tell her she was in a Godzilla Movie. Ease her into it.
I think Martin Freeman looks shorter in this movie.

#Watching THE WHALE

A24's other prestige Oscar magnet has awards acting in nearly every scene. Most of it connects, when it doesn't it feels like A Serious Afterschool Special about accepting others or whatever.
Waited on this after awards season just to see it fresher without the hyperbole.
Darren Aronofsky at an 11 for most of its runtime. Subtlety goes out the rainy window.
Compelling for most if its runtime, despite the single location. Every music cue tells you exactly how to feel.

THE BARN #Review

Low budget #horror movie from the 20teens. so you know it was set in the 80s.
Written and directed by Justin M. Seaman, which was going to be my porn star name so I'm glad I didn't use it.
Watchable if not particularly original, but at least it has Linnea Quigley.

#Watching THE EVIL OF FRANKENSTEIN

Hammer House of Horror movie directed by horror legend Freddie Francis.
In today's terms, this might be a rebootquel as it's another version of the Frankenstein legend you're all familiar with.
Peter "Cush" Cushing is the titular Baron Frankenstein, his sideburns sharpened to cut glass.
His goofy lab assistant/heterosexual life partner Hans is simply there to be the audience surrogate and caddy.
Nothing actually EVIL takes place during its scant runtime, but it's entertaining enough in an old-timey smoking-is-fine-while-pregnant kind of way.
It's Hammer, so it's almost required viewing for #horror fan
