A friend of mine has been bugging me to try it, comparing it to Twin Peaks, swearing that I'll love it, and while I do really like his films, I'm a little leery of three whole seasons of von Trier. https://youtu.be/xBcJZ3-cJKc?si=Xoq_M7ujbpUIjVFB Do you want to know more?

I met a guy who had a bunch of little tattoos of a various horror icons on one of his shoulders. Pinhead, Michael Myers, Freddy, Jigsaw, Jason, Pennywise, Regan. He also had big detailed tattoos of all his dogs that had died, and his close family members. A Good Dude.

Were the dogs/family members in a separate region (or regions) of his body, were they all kind of mixed together, or…? It rules regardless, but I wanna make sure I have the correct image. This is making me realize that I have zero horror tattoos, so I guess I gotta brainstorm something.

The dogs and family members were in a different area, the horror icons had their own spot. There was one horror monster that I did not recognize. Looked like kind of a cross between Michael Myers and OG Universal Studios Frankenstein monster. Like wearing a mask but kind of generic looking. Bugged me that I couldn’t figure it out, and the guy was in no condition to explain it when I asked about it.

I really hate that I am typing this out, but in the part before the baby is ultimately killed and eaten, the way it is screaming and pissing all over the place as people toss it around is one of the most demented things I have ever seen in a movie, and I was just sitting there like "that's brilliant"

Mother! is the only good Darren Aronofsky film, and even then I'm not sure it's capable of living up to the experience of seeing it on opening night in theaters without that now-irreplaceable context.

My friend swears by Mother! but apparently interprets it in a totally different way than Darren claims it should be interpreted. Once I actually watch the movie (I've been trying! It's just never on at a convenient time every October I've tried!) I'm going to text her to find out what she thinks of it all. I mostly kinda hate Darren Aronofsky otherwise especially because of how much he outright stole from Perfect Blue, except he made The Wrestler which is inexplicably the greatest piece of media about pro wrestling ever made that also managed to capture ROH at its underground hottest, so who can say if he's a hack or not

I still think Pi is a pretty cool movie. I also watched Requiem for a Dream a ton when my interest in film was really blossoming, but I haven't seen it in ages and I fear it would just seem way too melodramatic and preachy now. I haven't seen any of his movies since Black Swan.

I like several of his older movies but he seems like a gross rear end in a top hat to me so I'm not really interested in watching his movies at this point, especially ones that are all allegory because the last thing I really want to hear is what this gross scumbag thinks about women.

It's kind of hilarious reading reviews of Mother! because so many of them miss the very on-the-nose allegory and instead assume the god figure is supposed to be a stand in for Aronofsky himself. Also, from the wikipedia: quote:After 2014's Noah, Aronofsky began working on a children's film. During that process, he came up with a new idea. He ended up writing the screenplay for Mother! in five days, much faster than his usual pace
