Yes, this is a run of the mill 90’s anti-hero, with mild The Exorcist flavour. But I still love it.
-
The index film for the COVID-19 generation. Wicked sick.
-
Mentally unstable news anchor talks smack on live TV. Self-Destructing behaviour ensues. Released in 1976. Damn.

Landlubber Ephraim Winslow and old sea wolf Thomas Wake heave their belongings to the rock, eagerly waitin’ for the two fortnights of their shift. Two man in, how many men out? The sea. Sums. Dichotomy between good and evil.

How come this is so well regarded? It’s nothing more than white dudes talking.

A companion piece to The Matrix, but with a noir aesthetic. Sleeep!
-
Damn radical. Part of the holy trinity of classical anime: this, Ghost in the Shell and Cowboy Bebop.
-
A supreme being. Perfect.
-
A gripping tale of a feral ecoterrorist raised by wolves that discover what you hu-mans call “emotions”.
-
After 3 or 4 views, you can see the speed up scenes, but it’s still very suspenseful to see the last chase scene (and the rest of the film too).
-
I re-watched King Kong today and it’s still as impressive as the first time.
-
This is just amazing. Should really be called Secret Service Story.
