Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!

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 kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

I had such a crappy day yesterday doing my taxes that I decided it was finally time to watch The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Well, that, and it's expiring from the Criterion Channel this month.

Technically more grotesque than gory, but the grotesquerie is profound and disturbing. It's more unsettling than vomitous if that makes sense.

This description was dead on, Hec. Glad I watched it though; it's nice to see where all those horror tropes came from. And it was perfect timing for my mood.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

A company in Texas once got an award for their name - Tex's Chain Saw Manicure (landscaping, lawn care, etc.).

This description was dead on, Hec.

Woot!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Just popping in to wish everyone a happy belated 'Wait, THAT'S the plot of Dear Evan Hansen?? Day'

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I approve of this holiday. Maybe we can generalize it to "OMGWTFMusicals?! Day" and just change the specific observance by year?

Am I the last person to know that Spielberg is remaking West Side Story?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Nooooooooo! (I'll probably watch it)

I would 100% celebrate this every year, but I do feel like DEH has an unusually high OMGWTF factor.

Bwah!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good one, Matt! I was stuck in a loop of "but why?" and that made me laugh
