Plan 9 From Outer Space
Suicide Club

sadly, i didn’t have a lot of time for movies this month. 💔 hopefully August will prove to be far more fruitful in that area!!!

it’s hard to convey just how beautiful and imaginative this sequence is only through still frames, so here’s the full thing:

OK here’s four more stills. i’d highly recommend you check out this OVA if interested, it’s only 43 minutes and free on youtube!!! youtu.be/JSvg6QLA6E8?...

without a doubt one of those most visually dazzling OVAs i’ve ever come across, every single composition is brimming with passion and feeling.

A review of Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (1993) i have no idea what was going on here. like, i don’t understand what the goal was. i can’t tell what is meant to be satirical or sincere. i’m confused by so many of the decisions. i love lesbian cowgi...

If we do not make this move now I’ll be forced to move back in with unsupportive family in Florida, which will be even worse.
