We Live in Overstimulated Times

At the end of last year, I mentioned how exhausting it is being alive in the twenty-first century. Specifically, I wrote, “the rest of the world seems to have nothing but nonstop bullshit to say, and I have little interest in adding to that growing cacophony of voices offering unsolicited opinions on every little thing under the sun. Enough … Continue reading We Live in Overstimulated Times →

Lost and Found: Jane

Oh, sweet, sweet Jane! Today’s curio pick is an obscure British live-action/animated hybrid which aired two series in 1982 and 1984, titled Jane and Jane in the Desert, respectively.

Castellari’s film isn’t really a giallo at all. It’s more of a languidly paced home invasion thriller. When a man … Continue reading Giallogy: Cold Eyes of Fear →

Giallogy: Torso

Giallogy returns with one of the most rewatchable giallo films ever made. Enter at your own risk. Many gialli blend together in our minds, coalescing into a dizzying melange of impossibly beautiful women, shadowy black-gloved killers, countless bottles of J&B Scotch Whiskey, and enough convoluted plot holes to drive a Mac truck through them. This … Continue reading Giallogy: Torso →
