Title: The House that Jack Built (2018) Director: Lars Von Trier The world has a very morbid curiosity with serial killers. This can often border on voyeurism; hours and hours of consuming endless documentaries detailing heinous crimes that are enough to prevent you from all forms of social interaction, ever.

Cannibals and Keanu Reeves
The Bad Batch (2016) Dir: Ana Lily Amirpour Let's start with the positives. I'm feeling lots of love and harmony lately, and I've decided that I'm gonna try REALLY REALLY hard to see the good in things. Ironically I had this epiphany just before i watched this film so......sucks for me. So pros.... This film … Continue reading Cannibals and Keanu Reeves
Camping
The idea of a sequel pains me. With the exception of The Godfather and Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, I really don't have an overwhelming desire to watch a sequel. Ever.

Do they even have Uber? I think we can all agree that anything outside of zone … Continue reading Enfield. Not North London
You will catch Chlamydia and you will die….
dir: David Robert Mitchell (2015) *MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD* I wanna start by stating that this is a proper film, and I mean a PROPER film. It's an art house, wide angles, beautiful cinematography, amazing acting, 'nod to David Cronenberg' kinda film. Def not one for the Netflix and chill. Had to get that out of … Continue reading You will catch Chlamydia and you will die….
The Visit….sure
Every now and again comes a director so mind-blowingly overrated you almost feel compelled to hate them just to level out the playing field a bit. Even though not all of them are as evil and self obsessed as say, Christopher Nolan (just picking names out a hat here guys), you've decided by default that … Continue reading The Visit….sure
