Movie recommendations from your cinephile boyfriend (long post):
We’ll start easy with ones I’m sure most of my darlings have already seen. First up is most definitely ALW’s Phantom of the Opera. Seeing this musical live as a young lad changed me literally forever I think. And the movie is fantastic as well! Next is Egger’s Nosferatu. I feel like this one is self explanatory as to why it’s on this blog. After that would be Underworld (the first one) and Underworld: Rise of the Lycans. You can skip the middle two if you like, the story still flows with out them and these two will convert even a Twilihard into a true vampireXwerewolf gourmand. Of course Salt Burn, despite not having any paranormal aspects, has some of the most delicious mlm yearning in modern cinema. And to pair with that like a fine wine we have Braid. No one’s heard of Braid. Do you like Lesbians? Do you like art? Do you like weird fucked up shit? GO WATCH BRAID. NOW. I’ve only seen them once, but if you fuck with all the weird stuff on this blog, definitely watch The Boy and Black Christmas. And finally, brining up the rear, is the 2003 Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Listen, I love the originals. Tobe Hooper is one of my favorite directors, and a lot of my personal friends worked on the special effects for the second one (which is actually my all time favorite movie). If you’re on *this* blog for *this* content, go watch the 2003 version. It’s a much tighter and more gripping story. It’s super gross in all the right ways, I promise 🖤🖤🖤
