Wipe that shit-eating grin off your face and heed all of the content warnings (seriously), because we're discussing Pier Paolo Pasolini's notorious anti-fascist 1975 film #Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom. Tagging in for the convo is @zobowithashotgun.bsky.social, co-host of the Tainted Love podcast!

#Salò has rightfully earned its reputation, but I found it oddly compelling and (surprisingly) occasionally funny? Make no mistake, though: it's a very difficult watch.
Enormous thanks to @zobowithashotgun.bsky.social for braving this film with us and helping us parse through our feelings on it.

I thought #Keeper was fiiiiiine. Not Perkins' best, but definitely on the weaker side of things. Still, it's fun to see Tatiana Maslany play in his sandbox again.
Don't eat that cake because we are discussing Oz Perkins' second film of 2025, #keeper.
Written by #DangerousAnimals screenwriter Nick Lepard, this two-hander is big on vibes and short on plot, which proves more of an issue for @joelipsett.bsky.social than @tracedthurman.bsky.social

Saw a lot of people shitting on Kristen Bell for this yesterday and it just goes to show that sometimes you should wait a day or two before raging online. Or, you know, just don’t do it at all.
Kristen Bell also very surprised to learn she's Fox News' new Mary Magdalene

Celebrating #Thanksgiving a week early with a #WeirdWednesday screening of #AddamsFamilyValues, a movie I definitely didn’t know was a sequel until I was in high school, YEARS after I had worn out my VHS of this one. 😂

Finished #HellMotel over the weekend (don't let the title fool you. It's Season 6 of #Slasher. There's even a brief crossover with Season 3!) and enjoyed it for the most part. Better than S1 (The Executioner) and S5 (Ripper), but weaker than S2 (Guilty Party), S3 (Solstice) and S4 (Flesh & Blood).

While I enjoyed season 2 of #TwistedMetal enough, I thought it was a slight step down from Season 1 (main issues: too much schmaltz with the John/Quiet romance & the Mayhem character was *never* as interesting as the show seemed to think she was). Here's hoping a new showrunner can freshen things up

Screening Joseph “Father of Phoebe” Cates’ 1965 noir/exploitation hybrid #WhoKilledTeddyBear?, a movie described as a “smorgasbord of Hollywood taboos: voyeurism, pornography, masturbation, incest, child abuse, transvestism, lesbianism, sexual violence and even necrophilia.” 😈

#TheSkeletonKey is so close to being a really good movie, but I confess that I quite enjoyed this rewatch of a film I haven't seen in nearly 15 years.

I wish I liked Tina Romero's #QueensOfTheDead as much of many of my peers do, but I found this particularly unfunny & lifeless. Not helping matters is that I've seen #Slay, Tubi's "FROM DUSK TILL DAWN with drag queens" horror comedy that covers the same ground as QOTD, albeit much more successfully

This gay bar vs zombies film has a great queer cast and a few fun performances, but unfortunately that's where it stops working for us.

Animated PREDATOR films is great? Who knew?! (Me, I should have known).
Today on Patreon: Get ready for a really fucking good time because we're talking over Dan Trachtenberg's PREDATOR: KILLER OF KILLERS.
The anthology features incredible action so expect lots of "ohhhs" and "ahhhs" as we make our way through 3 different stories before arriving at the arena climax.
