Unfortunately, there are many families around the world with generational trauma. This movie is powerful in its message but not everyone will understand or care about its deep meaning. |

The Ninth Gate (1999) - 4/10
A rare book dealer, while seeking out the last two copies of a demon text, gets drawn into a conspiracy with supernatural overtones. Johnny Depp, another Hollywood-promoted retard. His surname is actually a German slang for "idiot". |
Falling Down (1993) - 0/10

The story follows Jack, a highly intelligent serial killer, over the course of twelve years, and depicts the murders that really develop his inner madman. My zero rating is based on a specific aspect of the this movie that I did not like. |

The Lodge (2019) - 3/10
A soon-to-be stepmom is snowed in with her fiancé's two children at a remote holiday village. Just as relations begin to thaw between the trio, some strange and frightening events take place. You have to turn the volume to 11 to understand the whispers, but then some of the sound effects and music are a couple of magnitudes louder than everything else - I mean, really loud - which is extremely obnoxious. |

Memories of Murder (aka, Salinui chueok) (2003) Korean with English subs - 8/10
In a small Korean province in 1986, two detectives struggle with the case of multiple young women being found raped and murdered by an unknown culprit. A number of funny scenes, despite the subject matter. Interesting insight into Korean film culture, and perhaps overall culture, somewhat. |
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) - 5/10

When the first manned flight to Mars is deemed unsafe and scrubbed on the launch pad, anxious authorities must scramble to save face and retain their funding - and so an unthinkable plot to fake the mission is hatched.

Two U.S. border patrolmen find a buried 20+ year old jeep in the desert with a skeleton, rifle and $800,000. They keep the money. Suddenly, the FBI shows a lot of interest in the car. Decent movie, watched it again after 30 years. |
Lord Of The Flies (1963) - 0/10
Schoolboys marooned on a Pacific island create their own savage civilization. Stopped watching this garbage after an hour and falling asleep. They made us read the book, of course, back in junior high school I think it was. I never bought the idea that adolescents, or anyone else, would behave like this in such a situation. Pure drivel, and that was 40-50 years ago. |
Beyond Reason (1970) - 1/10
When a nuclear war starts, the employees and inmates at a mental institution seek shelter in an underground bunker. They find themselves locked in and soon find that the inmates want to take over. Garbage. |
