Greg Greene@igreggreene.bsky.social · last wk.Rewatching AJ Annila’s SAUNA, a 2008 Finnish horror film @lairdbarron.bsky.social turned me onto. It’s not on streaming but you can ferret it out on physical media. Taut, frightening, and moody, with a liminal landscape. A really hidden gem of indie horror.
Film you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, MARVEL, Disney, or Ghibli.

Democrats defend themselves from False accusations. That is sheer buffoonery. You don't bring up the other side's talking points For them. And then explain them away. You go on the offensive.

I feel like Asian authors have totally cornered the market on weird fiction/magical realism cozies. I enjoyed WE'LL PRESCRIBE YOU A CAT so much, I'm reading the sequel. What oh what could the title be? You guessed it! WE'LL PRESCRIBE YOU ANOTHER CAT 😹
