“rogue has a way with men!” *thunk*
ugh, i love the x-men so much… i truly appreciate the nerds in this doc for bringing it back <3
“are you sure you’re not just stuck on thorn, freddy?”
the way fred short-circuited watching the hex girls perform is exactly the same experience i had at 8 years old. never outgrew that crush (thorn, please just give me a chance, please, thorn), but i did evolve. welcome deviously charming author voiced by tim curry and the sassy witch-ghost he summoned in his attempt to rule the world. thy hath unlocked new smash cake characters.
man, i really do adore fred’s tight ascot-less polo fit <3 this era was genuinely so iconic!!
‘the mistress of all evil’ is a title every woman should aspire to have
some visionary out there pitched “cinderella meets evil dead” and then proceeded to allocate the bulk of the budget to party city costumes soaked in fake blood, accompanied by a single children’s book as the sole source of research.
promising idea to cinematic disaster pipeline is real and it is sturdy.
you know the protagonists SUCK when i start rooting for the cockblocking murderers.
“why are you doing this to us?”
“because you were home.”
chills, chills, chills, chills, chills, like ew, shut up, i’m so fucking scared right now
you know a musical rocks when you still the words to every single song, even after the five years between watches (it helps that there’s an incredibly talented cast at its helm… like i still hear whoopi goldberg’s squeaking in my dreams).
genuinely devastated that this movie opted for mainly pov shots instead of showcasing elijah wood's piercing blue eyes and incredible talent for playing unhinged characters. an intense performance was sacrificed for unflattering film composition, imo.
still, he kinda nailed the parts where we did see him. very much serial killer w/ mommy issues.
if it toned down the proposed incest and added incredibly annoying talking animals, this could easily be mistaken for a very elevated early 2000s animated barbie movie.
this is peak bisexual girl cinema, like c’mon, we love doing crafts inspired by ma(r)y (shelley)!
FINALLY, a horror movie for all the STEM girls who pour a little too much of themselves into their research! <3
