CAT SICK BLUES (2015): A woman who's lost her YouTube-celebrity cat meets a man at a pet bereavement support group who just happens to be a cat-masked serial killer who believes he needs to kill nine women to resurrect his lost kitty. One of the oddest slashers you'll ever see, it's brutal, verging on vile, for most of the runtime, then takes a turn towards Miike's "Audition" at the end. Hard to predict whether anyone will love or hate this, but it's definitely different. 2.5/5.

F13.6 is my favorite.

FLAMING YOUTH (1923):
Yet another fragment -  :bluesad:  - of a full-length feature that was a critical and box office hit in its day. Star Colleen Moore was so proud of it - rightfully, I'd guess from the surviving 12 or so minutes - that she donated her own complete print of the film to some preservation society in her will. Apparently they didn't actually preserve it!  :bouncegiggle:  :buggedout:  :bluesad:  :thumbdown:

In the surviving sequence, the absolutely freakin' a-dor-able Moore plays a young socialite who runs into her mom's former globetrotting boyfriend at a mansion soiree. He's a serious, even depressed fellow who looks a little like Liev Schreiber, and Moore certainly perks him up a bit. Both of them are doing what I will now start to call "Real" Silent Film Acting, which is essentially the same as Good Acting in Talkies: though you can't hear what they're saying, you might as well be able to. I have watched many :lookingup: romances with Madame 10rda and if this were one of them, it would be one of the ones I'd be able to stomach, as the stars have chemistry and you actually believe they're attracted to one another.

I should probably mention the (already implied) age difference aspects of the plot. The globetrotter is 40something and Moore appears to be at least half his age, maybe in college. In the novel that the film was adapted from, she's 14 or 15! To make matter pervier, when he pursued her mother (prior to Moore's birth) the mother encouraged him to marry her future daughter instead. That's almost some Is It Porn? business right there. Ah well, the 20s were a... different time? Apparently later in the film Moore's character has a disastrous affair w/ a real lothario and tries to throw herself off a yacht and then the globetrotter saves her and they live happily ever after....... goooooood for them!  :lookingup:    3/5
