As I recall from Psycho, Norman is supposed to poison his mother and her police officer bf. Are we losing this altogether? Will she date another policeman?

Can you please post an opposite list of stoner trips that did go way over the top. I was hunting down the scene in Strangers with Candy this weekend where she goes crazy with a plant and every so often they cut to some laughing drag queen, and sadly could not find it. There are other good, way over the top ones, in…

The Evil Dead original is not famous for gore, but for its director, star, cheeseball production value, etc. This movie will have no lasting legacy. There's little characterization, not much original style, and even I managed to deal with the gore element.

This is an awfully generous review for a movie that's a pretty typical remake/gore-fest that updates some elements and sucks out all the charm. I was surprised to see a scene that directly rips off Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday of all things (evil is a black snake transmitted from mouth to vag). And the…

Never seen the show, but that guy's hot and can play whoever he likes.

I sort of liked them. I was shocked after seeing the special features on The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things that anybody was taken in by him/her/them. Unfortunately, it ruined the enjoyment of the two books I read of Leroy's. Maybe they'll become camp artifacts someday.

I loved this movie. I wanted to move to Portland in part because of Van Sant movies, even though I hate some of the later ones. I finally found the actual "Coming of the White Man" statue last year in Washington Park, which used to be a gay hook up spot, also used in the novel Invisible Monsters. The one above is a…

I haven't seen it. She might have been fantastic. But Eli Roth creeps me out.

I saw Ashley Bell give a speech at Comic Con, before Bruce Campbell. She was quite phony. I mean, I'm sure Bruce had his schtick down too, but he was great at it. She spent the entire time discussing how she studied ballet and all her contortions were real. No word on whether those bodily contortions helped her in the…

I saw him in a gay strip club on Easter in Portland during a weekend he went missing from a comedy festival. He went on a wild tear getting thrown out of bars no one gets thrown out of.

Willow is showing this weekend in Portland, and you know we really "get" cult irony here, man.

There is not a single giantess in this movie. They are leaving out a whole fetish category there. And do the giants reproduce like Gremlins?

There's about 3 gay serial killers and one woman. But please draw attention to them to distract from all the guys out there killing women.

He's right, in a way. If you can name two gay killers, that doesn't mean anything, and you're only bolstering the stupid comments made to the article, which are the typically anti gay BS. I mean male overcompensation is probably the leading cause of death in the world. And John Wayne Gacy admitted to being a serial…

Yeah, between the psycho drag queen who's Mama and all the moths, they're doing a real SIlence of the Lambs here. Only not nearly as good.

I streamed Audrey Rose the day before and this was the second movie I saw in two days where reincarnation is supposed to make us feel better about a little girl's death. But unlike the first title, this movie didn't seem like a commercial from the Hare Krishnas. Maybe it's from some group dedicated to glamorizing the…

I saw a preview of this; it was alright, but pretty much something to wait for netflix streaming.The bizarre camerwork in the flashback scenes drew laughter from the audience. The moth imagery is unexplained and arbitrary. And… both the car that crashes in the beginning and the cabin the girls hide out in appear to be…

I hope the AV Club will do us the favor of posting links to the nominees in the short categories, as you have in the past.

Conventional wisdom has turned so much against American Beauty, I would now say it's underrated and underappreciated. Esp since the same story presented on television would be something AV Clubbers would love… see as how Alan Ball's been doing series for the last 10 years much to your delight.
