What'd you think? I know Romero was demoralized with the production after suffering the all-to-common studio interference, it being his first studio film. Funny that his next one, The Dark Half, also was a studio-backed project. All things considered, I've always really liked Monkey Shines. Even if a lot of Romero wanted in the film got lost to the editor, what's there is a pretty damn original horror movie. Whoever trained the monkey deserves some sort of award. Amazing creature they found for Ella.

Thought it fucking ruled, I loved the "and you, you're a clinical cunt" scene. It definitely had a vibe of family friendly garbage but anytime it almost became that, something insanely cruel or hilarious would happen and steer it back into horror territory. I can see myself watching it many more times in the future.

I watched her movie A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night a while back. It had an interesting premise - a young Iranian vampire girl walking the seedy streets of Tehran - so it kinda challenged ideas of female vulnerability and her hijab, instead of being a implement of oppression, becomes a useful weapon of disguise.
I didn't think the story was all that compelling but it had a cool Jarmusch type vibe.

Yeah that's kinda what makes this a weird/disappointing move for her, since that and The Bad Batch were at least interesting and now she's going to do some throwaway gender-swap remake.

10 to Midnight fucking rules, easily one of my favourites in Bronson's career. So many of the shots are surprisingly amazing considering what you might usually expect from a Bronson film. The lighting and the tension, the use of violence and the purposeful way the blood is smeared on walls and flesh, it's so visceral, almost like a De Palma film or something.
Watching this one next:
There's a kind of lukewarm air about this film but I remember liking it, hopefully it still holds up.

Agreed, and it feels like a TV movie but I looked it up and it's not one. Trippy, but yeah I like it a lot.

Filming for the Black Widow movie starts in June according to Johansson herself. I rarely get excited for upcoming comic book movies anymore but this is one I've been wanting since the MCU started.
