“Re-watching DRACULA as an adult, I'm both surprised by & in awe of its extraordinary garishness, its ability to strike humor by way of self-seriousness, its unapologetic transience: no doubt a most bodacious contribution to Stoker’s immortal franchise.” https://t.co/gmymh6IhJb

"MIKEY & NICKY is May’s uber-text in her too-brief cinematic study of broken men and their slugtrail of betrayals, betrayers, and betrayed, a scab-torn and pus-flooded journey to the end of the night for its titular best friends." -@aHeartOfGould https://t.co/HkEnb2R1Jz

New on the site: @dylanwalsdorf on discovering Akira Kurosawa's Yojimbo: "If I was meant to watch this movie, it implies there’s some kind of order to the universe and not just a chaotic mess where kind people die too soon.." (art by @GMillsFineArt) https://t.co/Qa7s4nCxmj
