Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
After the titular protagonist gets her first period at school, her crazy, devoutly Christian mother locks her in a closet and tells her to pray, explaining that only sinners menstruate (Wikipedia says this is false).
Hee!
And, oh my God, wow. That clip from The Canterbury Tales is one of the strangest things I've ever seen.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Kids on Fire School of Ministry, a children's Bible camp
I... know that there are flavors of religion who are big with the imagery, but generally speaking, KIDS ON FIRE is not the kind of advertising you want for your summer camp. Especially not when the kids (and one assumes their parents) have a thing for literal interpretation.
Just me?

Let's just say Pasollini had an "interesting" take on the world and leave it at that.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I just can't wrap my brain around Dogma being one of the most anti-Christian movies of all time. I had to read the description twice to be sure they were talking about the movie I thought they were.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But hey, they're on fire for Jesus!

Or if nothing else, stigmata look like defensive wounds.
