@CiG, this was great. Though I think I preferred the first half when it was like Repulsion more than the second half when it started to remind me of

The Addiction.

Surprised you even liked it at all.

Nah I've always appreciated a good visceral mental meltdown film. Thought the lead actress was excellent too, brought so much attitude to that role, and it was cool watching that painting develop.

For similar reasons I also liked Climax from last year.

I more meant because it's basically a blatant b-movie, and some people can find that kinda shit to be a bit gauche, but yeah I loved it a lot and Dora Madison Burge is a fucking babe. She sold the whole shit. She's also in VFW but in a support antagonist role.

My fan theory about Bliss is that it takes place after the events of Only Lovers Left Alive and Dezzy's blonde friend Courtney is actually Ava from OLLA.

Still need to see Climax.

Production and acting were better than b-movie to be fair.

Born from the internet, the phrase "TFW NO GF" was originally used online to describe a lack of romantic companionship. Since then, it has evolved to symbolize a greater state of existence defined by isolation, rejection and alienation. The meme's protagonist, @HamburgerBoy, has become the mascot to a vast online community consisting of self-described "hyper-anonymous twenty somethings" and "guys who slipped between the cracks." TFW NO GF asks: How has the zeitgeist come to bear down on a generation alienated by the 'real world'? Meet the lost boys who came of age on the internet- places like 4chan and Twitter, where they find camaraderie in despair.

Maybe at times, but the acting was also pretty amateurish too.

always thought it was funny that john carpenter sued luc besson for ripping off that movie in lockout but he never sued hideo kojima for MGS because "he's a nice guy"

Plagiarism aside is Lockout any good?

[CiG]

[CiG]

Whew that kinda sucked and I was only 20 minutes in lmao. Turned it off and put on Better Call Saul. Might try it again another time.
