Photo cut from the fake album cover for Karl Malden Reads the Speeches of Lyndon B
Johnson, originally created by Twisted Vintage but found at Cut-up Sound. The faux album cover, oddly
enough, came up through a Google image search for "Oscar award with
boobs"… For more unexpected but fun finds that we've had when searching odd phrases, we suggest you watch our Short Film of the Month for April 2016, Fist of Jesus.
2019 was a busy year — or so we see it in
retrospect, as an explanation for why the last year saw the least amount of
blog entries (48) since we started a wasted life in a fit of boredom
some 13 years ago. And of those 48 entries, only 21 — less than half — were
actual film reviews. And from that meager selection, the time has come to
choose our yearly "Best of"
list… A relatively easy task, in theory, for all we really need to do is list
all films that we gave a positive review and we would have a list of ten. But
we don't actually find that all the movie we enjoyed truly deserve placement on
the list, thus the list of only eight. Plus one special mention, way at the bottom.
Here they are, but for the special mention in
the order that the original review appeared on a
wasted life. The titles are linked to the original review.
Dolls
(Italy/USA, 1987)
(Italy/USA, 1987)
Not
to be confused with the recently released (2019) killer dolls horror movie of
the same name, Dolls (trailer), directed by
Cuyle Carvin.
Vampire Circus
(Great Britain, 1972)
The Snake King
(USA, 2005)
A terrible film in every way, but we truly enjoyed it. You probably won't.
The Most Assassinated Woman in the World
(Belgium, 2018)
The Purge
(Un-USA, 2013)
Krampus
(USA, 2015)
Special
Mention:
OK, we trashed it
— but have told dozens of people about it since, laughing our heads off as we
did so. So maybe we enjoyed it more than we thought…
