there is an underlying theme in this year for movies. people are losing their minds, obsessing over the wrong things, and distorting reality… - UHF
- SHOCKER
- RELENTLESS
- MYSTERY TRAIN
- KILL ME AGAIN
- SEA OF LOVE
- HOW TO GET AHEAD IN ADVERTISING
these are some of my fav films from 93 - all have a healthy dose of paranoia and the protagonist is very estranged in their journey
RED ROCK WEST - nice cage is stranded in the wrong town
THE FIRM - tom cruise vs lawyers...
SLIVER - sharon stone moved into a new building and everyone is dying or having sex
DOPPLEGANGER - drew barrymore moves to LA and loses her sense of self...
this year has all the goods. conspiracy, dystopian daydreams, nocturnal noir, and hair salon melodrama
- NIGHT MOVES
- THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR
- ROLLERBALL
- DEATH RACE 2000
- SHAMPOO
good year for some good films THE STATE OF THINGS
- early wim wenders, meta film about making films
BLADE RUNNER
- you already know
KING OF COMEDY
- deniro is delusional
WRONG IS RIGHT
- post-bond sean connery, world is a mess, young jennifer jason leigh cameo, v timely with the state of the world rn
NIGHT SHIFT
- all the right antics
THE LAST HORROR FILM
- b-movie galore, about a fanatic at a film festival
KAMIKAZE 89
- some of the best costumes and set design ever
promotes positivity
pro tip, dreams don’t always make sense - so when weird/bad stuff happens, you can shrug it off and be like wow what a weird dream bro 🤷
