The Glass Coffin (2016)

Image
The Glass Coffin is a Spanish horror movie that came out in 2016 in the language of Spanish. Original title: El Ataúd de Cristal. How I watched: Tubi For the short of it: A woman is held captive in this pseudo Simon Says fuckery. The long of it: For a soft disclaimer, expect me to write about more and more movies from the language of Spanish. I am in the noob phases of trying to learn more spanish and one of the best ways is through media. So lately, I have been seeking out more movies, tv shows, music and in some cases even books in an effort to aid in my efforts. Just a little FYI. This movie centers around Amanda who is a famous actress now going out for a night out in the town. Tonight in particular, she is heading towards a ceremony where she is to be bestowed a lifetime achievement award so yay for her. Her chauffeur waits outside her rich ass house as she gleefully steps inside. Her phone starts ringing and it's her significant other, Saul and they

Guinea Pig 2: Flower of Flesh and Blood (1985)

Guinea Pig 2: Flower of Flesh and Blood is a Japanese movie that came out in 1985 in the language of Japanese. How I watched: Youtube For the short of it: Lots of le torture...again. The long of it: To my immediate regret, here I am viewing the 2nd movie in the Guinea Pig series. Why. Oh lordy why do I do this to myself? This movie starts off along the same lines as the first movie but this time with the inclusion of a brief snippet of the pursuit and abduction of a young woman. There is also a caption, again, much like the first movie. The caption said something along the lines of the "footage" we are about to see was a result of a crazed fan sending random shit to this cartoonist. So...here it is. The rest of the movie is just this woman tied up to a table while this dude just hacks away at the poor woman. With a run time of 41 minutes, you can see why there's really not much to tell about Guinea Pig 2, if one wants to really call it that, an

Paprika (2006)

Paprika is a Japanese psychological thriller movie that came out in 2006 in the language of Japanese. How I watched: Internet Archive For the short of it: Paprika is about a device that can view and record dreams but the device gets stolen and used for nefarious purposes. The long of it? Get ready, bros. Preface to say I saw this movie a little after it came out and it was an instant favorite of mine and still is to this day. Back in my pirating days it was easily accessible and with a few simple clicks of a mouse I successfully downloaded it...to my old laptop that took an eternal shit so I cannot get it back. Wah.  You also may think that this has similarities to Inception and you are right. I was a bitter bitch and since I fell in love with Paprika first and it obviously predated the movie by 4 years, I refused to watch Inception. Plus it really dug the wound deeper when people would think of Inception (which by some stupid reason is more popular than the anime) when it

Funny Games (1997)

Image
Funny Game is an Austrian psychological horror movie that came out in 1997 in the languages of french and german. How I Watched: Max (formerly HBO Max) For the short of it: A pair of dudes terrorize a family. The long of it? My god... Happy Terrible Tuesday to you folks out there. The past couple of Terrible Tuesday posts were pretty rough but I promise this entry is not AS bad. Still bad but....not. So this movie is about a family of 3 who just arrived to their holiday home in Austria which is a lovely vacation house by a lake. Lake house? idk I ain't bougie enough to know what the fuck it is really called anyway. Before the 3 get a smidgen of a chance to enjoy their stay, in walks one dude signaling the beginning of the motherfucking end. He introduces himself as Peter who knocks on the door and proceeded to get greeted by the wife named Anna while her husband and son named George and Georgie respectively are by the dock doing boat things so they are none the wiser.
