Unrest


Quite a good little film this one, atmopheric and reasonably creepy with enough tension to hold the piece together. Its about a young medical student who, whilst training with a small group how to dissect a cadaver, begins to get premonitions of doom about the cadavers unrestful spirit. well worth a viewing.

Hausu (1977). This incredible offering is a montage of splendid colors, wild transitions, and incredible editing, and that is all within the first ten minutes. Hausu is one of those movies that stands above and beside most of what cinema has to offer. Scenes that should be stupid are instead artistically delightful, each and every one crafted with a deft hand to look as if jumbled but feel as if perfect. It is akin to an R+ rated, psychedelic, Brady Bunch horror movie made in true Japanese style but fueled by a mix of mushrooms and crank. The story seems a mishmash of elements that should have no connection, but in further review are in tight cahoots with each other. The plot becomes an unnecessary element, shoved aside by all of the crazy movie shenanigans packed into this film, or rather cinematic experience. The effects were jaw-dropping by way of ingenious creativity. The score felt perfectly misplaced, a piece that seemed more at home in a sappy romance but that landed in the midst of Hausu through some cosmic design. How else could it feel so good? The acting, what can be said other than how these gals kept from busting into laughter during each and every scene is one the deepest mysteries unknowable by man. And where a lesser eye might not find value in such a cinematic endeavor, any and all movie fanatics would be shy of completion were this flick not to have graced their retinae.

Honestly one of my favorite japanese movies. Rented it from netflix and never gave it back. Now I love putting on at a party or some kinda social gathering without telling anyone. 10 min later nobody is talking because they're all glued to the TV wondering what the hell they're watching. Good conversation piece for crazy horror fans.

The Other
A very slow burner with descent atmosphere and a great score. Pretty sure its the same guy who composed The Poltergeist's score. Somewhat of typical killer kid movie but with a couple twists. I.E. evil twin in which you cant tell wheater he is real or not. The last 20 min or so are fairly tense after what seems to be pretty grusome murder by Niles and a crazy search for a baby. Ending was a downer though. Zero on screen violence which i liked and you could never tell if it was the kid being a scitzo or if his "evil" twin actually was doing the killing.
There is a similar mini series, i think its called Dont Go To Sleep. Never saw it but its probably better.

Had the great pleasure to see it in a theatre last year. It's even more bizarre on the big screen!

Tourist Trap (1979)



A pretty good atmospheric slasher with an eerie setting, creepy mannequins and fantastic scores. Chuck Connors was excellent in his role with a sad & sympathetic character. Haven't heard much of if before but surely now holds a place in my all time favorites.

Stash- 3/10- Just a complete waste of my time.

Train- 6/10- This movie had some potential but went to shit towards the end. Would someone like to explain to me how over half of the train just fucking vanished at the end. So fucking stupid.....

Man on the Train (2003). This incredible drama was European in all the right ways, but for those looking for a shoot 'em up you'd best steer clear. Man on the Train is a film of polar opposites whose lives briefly but profoundly cross paths. It is the old "greener pastures" story told in a refreshing manner. The acting was astounding, with the intimidating Jean Rochefort uncomfortably, but appropriately, matched with Johnny Hallyday. Their friendship buds from the fantasy of role switching, and the glue might be that each knows the shortcomings of the other's fantastical delusions. The story is one of tragic symbolism, and it goes out of its way in its onscreen exhibition of allegories. But instead of insulting the viewer, these demos are of such a richness that we cannot help but smile, as if their creation were of creativity bubbling out and not to be held back. The direction was subtle and helped to slowly build the story, with the seeds of banality having bloomed into a lush bond that cannot but be terminated too soon. The camera work was amazing. Its shiftiness in the opening scenes carefully reveal the traits of our darker protag. Its use of color furthers this sense, cold and harsh blue tones collide with overbearing warmth fueled by loneliness. The score was perfect in its ancillary role supporting the short-live relationship of these unlikely mates. When the denouement finally arrives, though its essence is of no surprise, its puissance remains unmatched in its perfect parallelism, leading to an end that was equally unmatched. Though not as dark as my usual fare, this was a wonderful cinematic tangent that earned my time spent. Merci.
