Spook-A-Doodle Bracketology II is coming January 1st! Bracketology is ostensibly a 64 Director tournament pitting random films of theirs against each other to name a top director, but really its just a giant movie club where we all expose each other to films outside our bubbles and watch them at relatively the same time so we can discuss them. Right now people are voting to determine which of the 113 nominated Directors/Teams will make the Field of 64! 21 have voted. All are welcome! Even if you don't want to play along with us, don't understand "bracketology", don't want to be part of our movie club, or what you're still free to enforce your will and make sure the right directors get in and the "posers" don't make it. The first 8 seeds were chosen and the conferences and divisions have been announced. Tokyo Conference: #1 Takashi Miike in the Champions Division, #2 Shinya Tsukamoto in the Rookies Division. Doubles Conference: #1 Agents Provocateur (Brian DePalma & Paul Verhoeven) in the Disco & Dystopia Division, #2 Team Lankins (Christopher Landon and Oz Perkins) in the Prairie & Psychos Division. Italian Conference: #1 Dario Argentio in Giallo Division, #2 Mario Bava in Gothic Division. American Slasher Conference: #1 John Carpenter in Haddonfield Division, #2 Wes Craven in Springwood Division. Voting will stay open until December 26th. Merry Christmas! https://forms.gle/hjfMd7rELHFc77hCA

Huh, I'm not sure I get The Love Witch. Is it just supposed to be a genuine attempt at making an obscure and not that great 70s witch horror type movie? I can totally respect that because it's a spectacular success in that regard, but am I missing something?

But you wouldn't be the only one who feels that way, the thread was somewhat split on it at the time, if I remember correctly.

I like it but it's 90% aesthetic and 10% content. I respect what it was doing but I'll take something like In Fabric all day over that.

It's a hell of an aesthetic though. And Samantha Robinson's presence is legitimately hypnotic, I'm surprised she hasn't broken through in a bigger way since then.

I saw The Love Witch in the theater and was totally ready to love it. Unfortunately it missed the mark for me. Here's my Letterboxd review:quote:Anna Biller has crafted a loving visual tribute to Italian films of the 60s and 70s. The colors, art direction, lighting and camerawork are all spot on. She really nailed it. Samantha Robinson is the perfect talent for the kinds of glamorous closeups in line with this style.

The Love Witch is basically The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra but for a different genre/era and with fewer jokes/minute. It did not work well for me but I can certainly see why some people like it.

The Love Witch didn't feel like satire or parody to me. It's in this weird zone where it feels like watching someone's wild dream after they saw Five Dolls for an August Moon or something. I took it sincerely and loved it.

I'd call it a "tribute" more than a "parody." I mean there definitely was a dry humor in it but mostly it just seems more about recreating something earnestly. Just with some self awareness about what's too silly to not laugh at.

Kinda like how Tarantino made an actual 70s exploitation film with Death Proof. A couple of action scenes for the trailer and the rest of the movie is just people sitting around talking?

Last night I watched Day of the Beast and Two Front Teeth and I just want to say, that was a really fun and weird Christmas horror night. Day of the Beast is a much better film and I think an absolute recommend for anyone looking for a horror movie that is both Christmasy and like the exact opposite of "Christmas spirit." And Two Front Teeth is just a cheap, bad film but its such a weird and committed attempt to turn "Christmas spirit" into something demented and weird that it works. Its also made by the guy who wrote WNUF Halloween Special, which I know is a favorite in here. I've had a really good Christmas horror season unlike last year. Krampus, A Nasty Piece of Work, Dial Code Santa Claus, Treevenge, even P2. All been good Christmas horror movies in some way or another.

Usually his thing is to make a "good" version or pastiche of those types of films, but Death Proof really felt closer to a vintage 70s flick like Dirty Larry, Crazy Mary or something more low budget than his normal work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0xE-68P4ao

Dirty Larry, Crazy Mary is great. I remember watching that on TV as a kid and being utterly amazed by the car chases.

So, I watched Songbird today. Do not pay for this movie unless you are a chud. That said, once you look past the shameless pandering it does to anti-maskers and conservatives on the general, it was more entertaining than I expected it to be.

Can we talk about Hunter Hunter? It's got elements of a great movie and one hell of an ending (or, I should clarify, a great ending scene) but to me, none of the pieces fit together at all. Not in a "what a twist" way, but the movie switches gears so many times that it's impossible to nail down. There's probably at least one good movie out of all the ideas it puts forth but never develops any of them.

I watched Krampus today. I know there's more than one, this is the one with Toni Collette and Adam Scott. I really liked it. I went in with really low expectations and was pleasantly surprised.
