Hellbenders (2012)
Loosen up!
I am enjoying this film very much. yep, right now. Yes, we have the usual possessions, but the interfaith order is pretty Hilarious. If you do not mind the total disrespect of all religious Christian customs. Not being familiar with the graphic novel may be helping me, but more to the point, I enjoy horror comedies, and as far as I am concerned we cannot have enough. I love Cabin in the Woods, Shawn of the Dead, even The Stuff. I can never tell what film viewers are really looking for, but this is not the sort of film if you want serious gross outs. What feels new here is the debauched quality I feel from the hell bound saints. If we have seen less religious religious characters, my bad, but I loved the irreverent quality in this film.
Wax, or the Discovery of Television Among the Bees (1991)
Surreal Masterpiece for Poetic Film Buffs
This film deserves another decent review. This is a surrealist kind of film. If you like art house films, proceed. If you like American blockbuster films stay away. This film moves slowly, has no special effects. It is not narrated by Leiv Shriber or Morgan Freeman. This film is really for someone who wants to delve into poetic film making, someone who doesn't mind moving at this slower more thoughtful pace.
This is a highly regarded cult film. Poetic in its tone, and relevant still. It was made in 1991, so this is a fascinating look at bees, poetic filmmaking and the potentially political message, although I see this film as an art film most of all.
so please, do not watch if you need a typical narrative and lots of action. very exciting for this poet to take in!!
