the most beautiful film ever [i.m.o.] so much to think about packaged into something so simple & gentle, and ends up feeling truly massive. so much inertia in every sequence of images. π§π«.
Im rewatching it atm and I canβt believe I forgot it in my earlier list. Such a weird and gorgeous film, I remember crying in the cinema when it came out.
One of the most visually stunning movies I've ever seen. Visual poetry with little to no dialogue, mellowness and strange tension. Each frame is perfect. It's a must if you love slow cinema
i found out late last year that it is so joyous to run while intoxicated.. when i buy a house, i will also buy a treadmill and i will drink every night and run [theoretically infinite] until i'ts my bedtime. then i will go and sleep a sleep that is inborn with love and joy. like a hamster.
Found footage film series by the director of Noroi: The Curse and Occult and I.M.O. the best the genre has to offer. Great image-making is hard to come by in found footage, but the good thing is that most of the films that do it well do it *really* well, & these are at the top. The thing about this series though is that you really do have to watch the whole thing, or at least the first 7. But they more or less keep getting better and better with each entry so it's worth it af. 6 is my favorite (pictured below) If u like paranormal investigation media, this starts out as a pretty endearing spoof of that stuff, but it very steadily develops into something much bigger than can be expressed with the words on a pi.fyi post. Vast, jaw dropping, cosmic terror. If you don't have shit going on spring break this would be perfect to binge. And it's all on youtube with beautiful fan-translated subtitles (linked)! 2025 is the year of Senritsu Kaiki! Get in on the ground floor!
