I had a legitimately spooky nightmare last night. I was on vacation in an unnamed Italian city. I had read a story in the newspaper about a local museum that caught on fire. As I was walking the streets alone late at night, I caught sight of the museum in question on a corner; it wasn't on fire, but the building next to it was. There were no lights on the street where the museum entrance and the fire were. As I walked onto that street to investigate, all of the lights in the city (including the fire) suddenly went out. I tried to backtrack my steps but I couldn't see where I was going. Then I saw lights at the far end of the street the museum was on, so I headed that way. The lights went out. Every now and then, a sort of spotlight would show up and I'd walk towards it, but it would disappear quickly. I thought about using my phone's flashlight but I assumed that this was all a trap muggers had set up and I would give my position away if I used it. The intermittent spotlights started leading me to a staircase, and I thought "it would be a bad idea to go up there." Then I woke up.

Yes, but they were badass for the entire fifteen minutes they were inexplicably in the movie.

I wish the whole movie was about those guys.

Quote from: Rev. Powell on February 06, 2026, 09:22:24 AMSeems high, but except for paid critics, no one went to see "Melania" who wasn't going to rate it an A++++ no matter what. I mean, would you pay money to see it? I wouldn't go if you paid me.

Perhaps I am mistaken... I thought you were a paid critic. You serve on a critics award panel for documentaries, right?

In 100% sincerity and seriousness, I was waiting for you to inevitably have to see MELANIA for one of your gigs. If you told me it was actually worth seeing, I would probably have to shut up about it! (...Not about Melania being an amoral enabler and opportunist, perhaps, but at least about the movie being objectively Bad...)

HAUNTERS OF THE SILENCE (2025): A recently-widowed man falls into a ghost-haunted nightmare. Abstract, but technically accomplished in both its dark ambient audio and morbid psychedelic visuals that produce some unexpectedly stunning images; the rating is a bit low, however, because this debut feature is essentially in the "student film" genre and will only be appreciated by a tiny audience. It's the kind of thing that can fascinate you for a few minutes, but watching for more than an hour with no real plot can be a chore. Debuting on Tubi February 11. 2/5, but it's one of the better of these types of things that I've seen (and I've seen a lot).
