This may be the first actual Dario Argento movie I’ve seen (not counting his truly abysmal Dracula 3D from a few years ago). This is a classic horror film with at least one iconic “kill” sequence that I’d heard about … Continue reading
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm is the shortest title for this sequel to the original Borat film. Apparently – and this could be a meta joke – the original tile was going to be Borat: Gift of Pornographic Monkey to Vice Premiere … Continue reading
