The Shining

[Corpsey]

They teach us what cinema is all about -- the hypnotic allure of the image, the image we want to suckle but can only stare at

 

[Corpsey]

Kubrick stands back from it all and forces us back too, the cold blooded floppy cocked analyst, decoding

craner doesnt agree with this

This thread is thrumming and throbbing with intellectual jouissance

That's Edwige Fenech, one of the greatest film actresses of all time.

See this is interesting because this is my ideal woman

Yawn

 

[Corpsey]

Unthreateningly androgynous

 

[Corpsey]

Wears one of those Scandinavian backpacks

BFI membership

 

[Corpsey]

I'd be too afraid of the buxom Italian goddess, my penis would melt before her like the Nazis unbuttoning the Ark of the Covenant

See this is interesting because this is my ideal woman

woops loves french women craner loves italian women.
woops says italian women are 'vulgar, over-ripe, gone to seed, spoiled'
craner says french women are 'haughty, brittle, gamine, pre-pubescent'

Corpsey, have you seen Suspiria? The old one, not the beige new one.

 

[luka]

no he hasn't. we refuse to watch them out of spite, just to spite oliver.

 

[Corpsey]

Yes and like the Shining (the first time) I watched it purely for the scares, didn't appreciate the artistry of it

Both of them scared the shit out of me

 

[Corpsey]

I found Suspiria scary in part because it felt like a porn film gone wrong

 

[version]

That old witch snoring behind the bed sheet.

 

[Corpsey]

I suppose a lot of horror films are porn films gone wrong if you see what I mean

The cheerleaders are about to fuck and then a hatchet man turns up to chop your cock off

 

[Corpsey]

That old witch snoring behind the bed sheet.

Yes it's really quite nasty isn't it

Compare room 237 to that scene

 

[version]

I suppose a lot of horror films are porn films gone wrong if you see what I mean

The cheerleaders are about to fuck and then a hatchet man turns up to chop your cock off

Isn't that what that recent one, X, was supposed to be about? They're shooting a porno and everything goes wrong.

 

[Corpsey]

Not sure about these A24 horror films, too knowing

But Hereditary scared the shit out of me
