The idea of someone being mad at a Palestinian flag flown at a No Kings protest lets me know that some of us are okay with kings so long as they get to be king.

That is, there are many who only dislike oppression because they’re tired of waiting their turn to be the oppressor.

Return to Sender
Remember at the end of Hard Candy when we found out it was a prank? This is the version of follow through. And yet, she still could have been meaner 🤷‍♀️ I am PISSED about the dog tho 😡

Been sleeping like a BABY lately. And by that I mean very RESTLESS, waking up every couple HOURS, one time a SHADOW made me scream, the creaks keep me from DEEP sleep, soon I will cry and keep my NEIGHBORS up too

Watched this weekend:
Devil in Disguise:John Wayne Gacy
Treated the memories of the victims much better than some other series like this. They really picked the perfect actor for Gacy too WOOF 😨 😳 🤯

Last night’s watch:
Closure
Pic says “Straightheads”, apparently they changed their mind on the title? Fitting for how the movie went too tho. Def not the revenge I thought they were going for.

Movie poster for Closure that actually shows the old title Straightheads with Gillian Anderson wide-eyed and looking off screen with a gun scope in front of her that says “I can’t just walk away, I wish I could”

I made a watchlist on IMDB called “TBH She could have been meaner” where I put all the movies I watch where the character’s response seems totally fair and actually could have been even more unhinged and still been warranted. 🫶

TBH She could have been meaner

Movies where tortured women get their revenge.

Girl Gone Bad
This girl’s fight response is making me realllly hate my fawn response. And my attacker is just a text message that says “we need to talk” 🤣

Movie poster for Girl Gone Bad with the main character and her attacker with their heads side by side, bloodied faces and him with a mouth tie to keep quiet that says “do you get who is in charge yet?”

Fear the Night
I love a good backwoods survivor story. Get em girls!The ending was weirdly confusing for no reason though. I guess left it open for a sequel but that’ll just have even more plot holes to fill🤷‍♀️

Would love to know why music apps are helping ICE, military, surveillance, etc?? It’s like fancy money laundering. Sick of having to change streaming every 3 months bc they’re funneling $ for violence. Idc if it’s just an ad-it’s complicity at best.

Contracted
Contracted: Phase 2
Honestly, women SHOULD be allowed to choose to be rotting, revenge-seeking zombies in retaliation for assault. These have really disgusting visuals tho be prepared lol 🤢

#movies #filmsky #moviesky #horror #horrorsky #contracted #zombies #zombiemovies

Movie poster for Contracted with a woman facing the camera with one yellowing eye, one bloody eye, rotting skin around her mouth that says “not your average one night stand” which is the most annoyed catchphrase ever since she was raped

Daylight’s End
Surprisingly good but I just know this was the casting call:
Female MC:beyond wishy washy, basically a flip flop.
Male MC:silent & brooding x10
Setting:unhinged underground police station
