heehoo, i've been gone for over a month now. happy new year!

fun fact: i first watched basement jack around when it came out, i.e. when i was 13 years old. and years later, the only things i remembered were the fact that i loved it (but not why), 'jack cute', and lucille's death scene, the image of which stuck with me viscerally for ten years because of how real and fucked up it looked. which is pretty good for a movie that seems to have had a budget of sixteen crumpled ones and a shoebox full of pennies

#basement jack #this movie does looks pretty good for a movie shot in 2009 on what i assume to be a shoestring budget #budget so thin an effect visibly fucked up in one scene and they left it in. presumably bc they couldn't afford to reset and reshoot it #anyway i continue to love this movie and i'm pleasantly surprised there's as many of you following me as there is #happy new year everyone!

appreciation post for jack's eyes, because just... goddamn

#basement jack #jack riley #i Cannot get over how pretty he is #and i don't want to

i have so many bizarre thoughts and feeling about this movie that tbh i don't even know where to begin. an analysis of jack's childhood and mental state? my headcanon that the asshole detectives are gay and secretly banging in the police department bathroom? my other headcanon about the manager being a hybristophiliac and also a serial killer in his own right? my eight million weird aus, one of which is based on the premise of the anime/manga erased? the cracktastic poly quartet i came up with (manager/jack/karen/lucille) that my friends on discord nicknamed The Basement Orgy? there're so many weird and wacky avenues to cover, how can i be expected to pick just one

#i am not joking about a songle thing in this post but you'd be forgiven for assuming so #all of this sounds like a shitpost except that first part #i have too many thoughts

this is an appreciation post for jack riley's hands, which have no right to be this pretty like what the fuck

#basement jack #jack riley #this man is so pretty in every single way #love this murderous pretty boy <3

so on a scale from 1 to 'dug through at least thirty bargain dvd displays this past halloween season in search of a basement jack dvd they might've excavated from the back room and decided to put out anyway' how badly do you not want to give amazon your money

#basement jack #i have travelled through hell and purgatory and for what #i found like a dozen wishmaster and candyman dvds but nothing for basement jack #looks like i'll have to cave and make a deal with the devil if i want to start making basement jack gifsets #i have a high seas copy on speed dial if you catch my meaning but the quality is ass

jack riley looks cgi. this man has no pores. look at this shit

man's really out here looking like he moisturizes after living on the streets for a year and also spending ten years in a psych ward right before that. hot tbh

#basement jack #jack riley #jack is gorgeous and no one can convince me otherwise #love this mans

basement jack might be just another 'oooooooh mental illness is scary~' horror movie but it's my emotional support 'oooooooh mental illness is scary~' horror movie goddamn it

#basement jack #this movie is also borrowing so heavily from psycho and halloween that it's basically their estranged child #that will not stop me from loving it

i present: jack falling down

#jack riley #basement jack #all the grace of a newborn fawn <3 love that for him #though in his defense karen is repeatedly electrocuting him and hitting him in the face with heavy objects #please ignore the video ui in that one pic

chris: you're smiling, did something good happen?

karen: can't i just smile because i feel like it?

lucille: jack tripped and fell in the parking lot

#incorrect basement jack quotes #jack riley #karen cook #chris watts #lucille armando #basement jack

hot take but i headcanon jack as having severe ptsd. considering the visual and auditory hallucinations, the erratic behavior during thunderstorms (which he's had traumatic experiences with before), etc. etc.... It Just Makes Sense

#jack riley #basement jack #jack isn't evil you cowards he's severely mentally ill #jack deserved better

BASEMENT JACK (2009)- Another relatively obscure slasher flick, I caught this one on I think the TCL streaming channel last night and loved it. Might be a bit difficult to find without sailing the high seas, but it’s definitely worth a watch!

Basement Jack is the story of Jack Riley, a young man who, after killing his abusive mother went on to murder four other families during lightning storms, posing their bodies in a manner reminiscent of domestic bliss, before being caught. Dubbed “Basement Jack” by the media due to his tendencies to break into and hide in his victims basements, because he was only 17 when he committed the crimes he received a lighter sentence. Once he was released years later, the killings began again, and only the lone survivor of his original massacre seems intent on stopping him once and for all.

It’s a charmingly dark film, the scenes with his cruel mother are shot in a brightly lit and almost surreal manner, and the character of Jack is just very interesting. He’s quiet and can be seen stimming a few times, particularly when stressed, and is tormented by the memories of his childhood. They really give him a lot of personality and depth plus he’s hot.
