that's what I liked about that character too.

Re: movies
The Medium (2021) A middle aged shaman and her twenty-something niece prepare for the transference of the kind spirit of a goddess from one to the other, as has been tradition in their family for generations, but when the younger women begins to display odd and sometimes violent behavior, they wonder if there’s an evil force at hand. The 2+ hour runtime starts pretty slow, but it’s a roller-coaster when it finally gets going. Very good movie, and even some surprise nudity. If you like possession moves, this is better than most. In Thai w/ subtitles.
Slumber Party Massacre (2021) This re-imagining incorporates a few aspects of the 80s VHS classic and it’s sequel about a psycho with a power drill terrorizing scantily clad teenage girls, but it has its own modern agenda as well. Don’t expect too much, get some popcorn and enjoy.
The Empty Man (2020) Was this horror-thriller a trapped in the snow movie, an ex-cop seeking redemption movie, a teenagers get cursed movie, a cult-conspiracy movie, or all of the above? Lots of mystery and things not what they seem in this pretty cool, but maybe slightly too long (2:17) movie that has so many things going on it might have worked as a miniseries! Surprise nudity.
Elivira’s Haunted Hills (2001) Elvira’s 2nd feature is an homage to House of Usher, Pit and the Pendulum, Tomb of Ligea, and the rest of the Poe/Price/Corman catalog from the 60s. Elvira and her assistant stay at an old castle while traveling through Europe on the way to a performance in Paris, and make a bunch of PG-13 dick jokes on their way. But not as many as the first movie.
Bloody Pit of Horror (1965) A group of Italian fashion models and their crew crash a castle they thought abandoned, but is inhabited by a recluse and his “henchmen” (They dress like Batman villains). They release the spirit of “The Crimson Executioner” who was buried there hundreds of years ago during the Spanish Inquisition, and find themselves on the wrong end of torture racks, iron maidens, and various other fun devices that were stashed in the dungeon. American muscleman and husband of Jayne Mansfield, Mickey Hargitay, plays the villain, complete with red hood and wrestling tights. Cheesy and sleazy, with some ridiculous dialog, this movie is a delight. If you’re looking for a “bad movie night” this is a can’t miss. There’s a 74 and 87 minute version of this, but according to an internet search, there’s no sex or violence in the cut scenes. NOTE: On my second viewing, in which I did manage to locate the 87 minute version on youtube, I can’t say for certain, but I believe some of the torture scenes, which include blood and scantily clad victims, could possibly be a few seconds longer.
Suspiria (1977) Dario Argento’s fantastic sets, brilliantly lighting, with gore and a loud soundtrack by Goblin make this arty film about witches who run a dance academy an absolute masterpiece, deserving of all the praise it gets, and then some. I’ve seen it more times than I can count, and I’ll watch it every three years or so until I die.
Don’t Let Her In (2021) A hipster couple rent a room in their DTLA loft to a sexy succubus who turns their lives upside down in this mediocre mini-budget quickie from Full Moon and Ted Nicolau (Supspecies) that has a runtime of an hour flat! Seems it could fit in an episode of an anthology series, except for the nudity.
Laid to Rest (2009) A busty amnesiac wakes up in a coffin an while escaping from her cam-corder carrying would-be killer, puts the lives of all who cross her path in danger. That includes Lena Headley, a guy who looks like Bill Goldberg with a limp, and the Got Milk guy. Gory as fuck, with a small amount of nudity. Unfortunately, writer director of this and its sequel, as well as about 100 FX credits, Robert Hall, passed away in 2021 at the age of 47.

Re: movies
I liked The Empty Man -- thought the end was kind of whatever, but it was a lot of fun.
I was watching NewsRadio for the first time (after reading everyone talk about it here) around then and it was funny to see Jimmy James pop up as well.

Re: movies
Finally got to see The Green Knight. I really wanted to see it in the theater, but I was still not sure about being in a big group and I couldn't find time to see the final showing of a weeknight which would have helped with that. I thought it was great in the usual A24 way, but I'd be curious about Wolt's thoughts on it since I'm not mega-familiar with the source material.
