Brooding ambient music

Probably the most famous unsolved murder case in Finland, Lake Bodom Murders. The film is loosely based on that event in 1960. Set in present day, four kids do a reconstruction of the case therefore make a camping trip at the very same location. And it gets teenage slasher shit real quick. I merely observed the wouldn't-happen-in-real-life - ridiculousness.

Space between the notes

Started out with a college baseball team's frat house and its non-stop parties. After going through the usual stuff such as excessive use of beer and one-night stands, what-have-you typical shit, you kinda expected something dramatically engaging to happen. But no. Nothing happened. Can't believe upteenth number of film critics thought this as one of their favourites this year.

Flushing mommy down the toilet

A family of seven (father & six children) live in the woods. Ostracized from civilization, obsessed with physical and intellectual education, they've become great thinkers and therefore against the values of western ways of living. They also worship Noam Chomsky. They have a funeral to attend to and the outside world seems 'em as these extravagant hippies. Just absolutely amazing and truly invigorating off-beat drama comedy. Looks more or less like a Wes Anderson picture and reads like Tod Solonz, and now there's a new kid on the block, Matt Ross. Well done.

Influenced by something demonic

One of the best contemporary old-school horror movies no doubt. Done with good taste and understanding of the laws and values of traditional horror genre. A house is haunted in London, England, and people investigate it. Doesn't need more than that.

Accept no substitutes

Since I saw it back in the day - watched it then a few times in fact -  and I have always thought this as Quentin Tarantino's most underrated gem and it's fucklots better than said everywhere. Partly it's still true, but - watched it again yesterday - and somewhere along the years it has lost some of its appeal. Great writing and great acting (De Niro and Jackson, in particular), but at the same time there's lots of leeway in the story. Dunno, maybe I'll watch it again in few years time and it's the greatest movie ever made.

People love a good story

I liked the Edgar Rice Burroughs books and totally digged the Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movies. Liked the idea on reproducing the Lord of the apes once again, but this is just plain pathetic. Belgian king Leopold wants to shove African diamonds up his ass, so he executes this clever plan to kidnap the hero himself. Everything is gung-ho when the white aristocrats and native tribes and animals either work together or hate each other at the bottom of their hearts. One of the most ridiculous movies I have seen all year.

Fuck everyone who isn't us

The 6th season of Game of Thrones. I don't want to be too disrespecteful because most of the followers are sad little twats, but this is how I sum it up: first few episodes I tried to reminiscence what the fuck had happened before, who were all these people, when I figured some of that shit out, I realized that the show looks like a soap opera. The second to last episode was great. The last episode was basically (spoiler alert) a metaphore for everyone wanting to suck John Snow up. Funniest thing is that the lady with the three dragons could easily wipe out - if not the entire fucking fantasy world - but her enemies at least, to kingdom come, but chooses not to.

Help pick up the pieces

Great Dutch beer, Heineken. True story, apparently, back in 1983, a group of desperate people kidnapped the beer tycoon Freddy Heineken, and demanded ransom. Not bad, they speculate the alternatives of the prolonged case and it's getting more and more thrilling as the days go by.

Extreme ways

Sometimes it feels like swimming in the ashes of utopia with these techno thrilles that are bludgeoned to death with IT-jargon and breakneck speed high-tech action and story telling. But it is what it is with Jason Bourne, the super agent, he has his head stuck up too deep in his asshole to realize anything better. If not, the problem is there's absolutely nothing new to offer. It's the same story all over again with the same watchable thrills and intensity.

Bolivians taste like chicken

The Chilean mining accident and its rescue operation was the biggest reality TV in 2010. This is not the only movie made of the incident. But, I reckon, this is the most international one therefore the semi-retired latino actors speak this funky fake English accent which, quite honestly, is nauseating to decipher.

Hope it comes with a manual

A man loses his wife and instead of mourning, focuses on writing his thoughts on a wending machine company. Things get even crazier as he grows a demolition fetish, then there's even more. Truly an off-beat drama that sadly lost its beat halfway through. Nice ending though.

Shit out of biscuit

Just absolutely fucking hilarious. Good old guts & gore thing with perfectly placed one-liners piercing through it all. Bill Campbell as Ash is an iconic comic genious and without his presence the Evil Dead legacy couldn't live on. First season of the series.

Spaceship turned back on

I watch these things solely for the enjoyment of second-hand embarrassment. And I'm ever so curious how pathetic and ridiculous everything to go. New heights here.

Standing in the cold

Religion, politics and crime belong to the same syndicate in Italy. Every once in a while things fumble, people die and everyone's in vendetta kind of mood. Nothing that you haven't seen here before, but when the shit hits the fan in the heart of mafia land, it's a full-blown apocalypse.

Nobody understands how the algo works

Not purposefully going against the grain of current consensus, but - despite shitty reviews - I really liked this movie. A man hijacks a live TV show, takes several hostages and continues broadcasting reality television. Of course, as unbelievable and downright silly as the next thing, but that's only entertainment.
