~~ Erotic Thrillers of the 80s and 90s ~~

I'm still haunted by her Susan Atkins.

yeah i enjoyed this episode a lot, the stone audio was a nice touch. She did the same iirc for Carre Otis in the Wild Orchid/Rourke episode & it really elevated the ep i thought

lol Call Me is so bad. Why am I watching these things when there are other actually good movies on Criterion?

Is that a rhetorical question?

Dream Lover is currently on Criterion ending this month, and I thought it was entertaining, some offbeat dialogue, good supporting characters and plot turns. And Madchen Amick is beautiful.

Have we talked about The Hot Spot? Dennis Hopper directed 1990 adaptation of the very hood Charles Williams novel about car salesmen, sex and robbery? I lived that book so I’m gonna watch this one asap. May actually start it now, before work.

I can’t type on my phone sorry.

Interested to see what you think.

Well... so far, I like the shots of the small town location. The acting is not particularly great. It's certainly erotic, and certainly a thriller. The sexy stuff can be a lil over the top (already, hardly into the film) but, I'll enjoy it. Probably finish this evening or tomorrow.

B-b-but what about the soundtrack?

It's not the worst, but definitely helps to date the film. The eating-pussy-in-the-car scene was a littttttle extra, if you know what i mean.

Enjoyed the heist sequence itself.
Now off to work.

Rep theatre screening of Basic Instinct. It really is kind of terrible. Two good things: Sharon Stone's performance--she seems to be the only one who's onto how campy and overwrought it all is--and four Seinfeld people.

(Six actually, checking online--four I knew.)
