🎬 Without Warning

I wanted to watch this mainly because its poster is so cool. And the movie itself was ok, too, as far as I remember (it's been a few weeks since I watched this; and I also fell asleep briefly; it's been a long day). Nice 80s horror charm and some nice and juicy hand-made effects. It's all a bit ridiculous, though, of course. "ALIEN! C'MON! ALIEEENN!" *KABOOM* best ending! ;)
🎬 Kinds of Kindness

I enjoyed this. It had me constantly wondering and wanting to know what happens next. I really liked the quirkiness of it all. But then in the end it left me kind of empty and wondering “why all this?” and “what for?”. All the stories had the same subjects it dealt with, but I couldn’t find any purpose (if there is any), and why it had to be three episodes. So I had the suspicion the movie is just weird for weirdness sake. But maybe that’s just Lanthimos’s thing and I shouldn’t complain. What never seems to disappoint, though, is how he films everything. It’s just fun to watch. Emma Stone was superb once again, but so were all the other actors.

I just scheduled my first newsletter to go out tomorrow morning. I thought, while I am setting this thing up (originally to inform all the people who are interested in my next zine), I might as well use it to share a bit more about how I created the zine etc. There’s still time to sign up!

🎬 Mac and Me

Another Mondo Bizarr flick. Reading the summary, I was actually expecting something way worse than this. This was actually high quality and looked a lot like more famous American movies from that time. But rightly so, it's not as highly regarded: it's just all a bit off and wacky at times. But that doesn't mean it's less entertaining! Just more bizarre. The chase scene is fantastic, the musical part at McD is just great and the ending is just the whimsical cherry on top.
🎬 Xaver und sein außerirdischer Freund

This review may contain spoilers. Tap or click to view.
Uff. Ein Außerirdischer hat mit seinem Ufo ein Panne und strandet im Wald unweit eines bayrischen Dorfes. Xaver entdeckt und kümmert sich um ihn. Die Einheimischen sind skeptisch und die Böse-Buben-Gang ist auch noch hinter Xaver her. Aber dann stellt raus, der Mann vom anderen Stern ist eine regelrechte Biervernichtungsmaschine. Damit gewinnt er nicht nur die Herzen der Dorfbewohner sondern auch den Biertrinkwettbewerb im Festzelt. Es gibt Verfolgungsjagden zu Fuß und mit Gefährten und am Ende gibt es ein Heidendurcheinander, aber alles geht nochmal gut aus.
Tja, was soll ich sagen. Hat irgendwie Spaß gemacht das mit der Truppe im Mondo Bizarr zu schauen. Prost!
