Cinema Strikes Backさんのイラストまとめ

#nowwatching Final Flesh (2009) - went to the @AlamoNYC screening by @Bleeding_Skull and @filmarchive on a literal last minute whim and glad I did, that was a unique experience. Awkward, uncomfortable, funny as fuck, like Ionesco’s Rhinoceros but with 150% more tits and dick. /1

Stuck in bed with Covid, catching up on some books I’ve had sitting around. Giganto Maxia, a one shot from Berserk’s Kentaro Miura, kind of like Road Warrior mixed with Godzilla style kaiju wrasslin’. Amazing art, beetle man suplex, plus water sports. Wild shit.

#NowWatching The Devil Strikes at Night (1957) - In which a mass murderer is but a child before the concentrated bureaucratic evil of the Gestapo. Part of the fascinating German tradition of unconventional serial killer films, from M to Angst.

#Shocktober #18 A Return to Salem’s Lot (1987) - Cohen’s answer to what post-vamp Salem’s Lot would look like? A mix of Amish and New England Republican, living on cows and stray punks, boasting that they came over with the Mayflower and don’t need no govt subsidies. Buck-wild! https://t.co/oWVeoi9eMY

#Shocktober #4 Possession (1981) - I’m still reeling from this 4k restoration @MetrographNYC - felt like if Marriage Story had a baby with Videodrome. MVPs Heinz Bennent as the supremely weird and confident third wheel Heinrich, and Isabelle Adjani, who GOES for it. https://t.co/wcFfkvW8jj

#AniMay Space Battleship Yamato (1974-75) - finally watched the ur-text, its DNA is everywhere (Macross/Robotech, Evangelion, maybe Star Wars). Glorious, epic space opera as the Yamato and its crew travel across the universe to save Earth and defeat evil space fascists. [Thread] https://t.co/ugEM7vOUzg

#NowWatching Mega Time Squad (2019) - does one of my fave things, taking a ludicrous premise and chasing the most extreme conclusion. Here, a young, dumb thug (genial Anton Tennet) stumbles across a time travel device and proceeds to colossally muck up hid own time stream.

#NowWatching Diamantino (2019) - A gender-bending, MAGA-baiting, occasionally heartfelt comedy-intrigue about the world’s dumbest, sweetest soccer star (pitch-perfect Carloto Cotta) and the adult lesbian Secret Service agent posing as his adopted refugee son who loves him.
