Now it's all over and this week I don't have school at all. I need to do the copyright-course and that's all. On Friday I will be off to Helsinki! I'm going to see Hardcore Superstar with my friend Saara (who I met last year as a volunteer in Kivenlahtirock). And if I survive from that, I'll be going to see some burlesque with my friend Hanna on Saturday. It's gonna be a wicked weekend!
What a sick weekend I had...
I spent the weekend watching weird movies. Sick, twisted, weird. In total, the basic of most of them was having sex with dead people, children or your relatives. That's about it. Of course there was also a lot of blood, cutting, torturing and stuff like that. During all the movies only two had some kind of affect on me. Okay, actually more because some of them made me laugh. A lot.
If you ask me, this one was just stupid. And quite boring. BUT Dieter Laser - the main actor - was A W E S O M E! Perfect for the part! Besides it was quite fun that the girls talked English, they were in Germany and there was one guy who didn't understand anything because he talked Japanese.
The surgeon was a great character and you can't go wrong with a guy looking like that, speaking German time to time. Then again it was probably the only good thing about this movie. The story was little bit stupid, it tried to just shock with the whole centipede thing which actually didn't work. It wasn't built up the way that it should've been so that it would have the actual shock affect. The victims was too lame, that's probably why it didn't work. The woman actors were not good. Too shallow. So why should I care or feel for them... Yep. The ending was a plus. I mean like the last 30 secs (or less) of the movie.
Oh God. Why did I even bother... This one actually made me laugh at one point. I'm trying hard to remember anything else from it. Errrm? There were possibilities in the story but... I don't know. Hard to say anything. Nice music time to time. Eh... There were some nice twists which I liked but then again the story seemed a little bit... like... fallen apart maybe? And that's probably why the sick twists weren't that shocking. Once again the victims were quite shallow so I didn't care much what happens to them. The evil guy was OK. Ending was just shit. Honestly. Why do they have to make endings which are not believable, not even in that world were the story happens!? WHY!?
Oh my, oh my, I just loved this one! It was weird, it was sick and at first I thought it had no idea but god damn it did. A lot! It was cruel, it was fun, it was well made and the actors were awesome. It didn't tell us anything new, honestly, but the way it was told was so out there that at least I can't say that I have ever seen same things told like that. Me likey!
Men Behind The Sun
I don't know why I even watched this one. I knew I would just fall a sleep, as I almost did. If I had to say something about it, then I think I'm just gonna say that the English dub was well done. I thought it wouldn't work but it did.
I've seen this before. I did like it then and I still did. I love the colors! But the English didn't work... It would've worked better in Japanese (or Korean or whatever). The story was nice also and this was one of those that made me even grin a little. Because of needles. But just a little bit. Even though I said the story was nice, I thought there were few pointless scenes which made it too long and boring. This one was the only one I thought I might even have nightmares from (but that's mostly 'cause I honestly don't like people having extra things growing from somewhere. Eyes are the worst. Hrrr....)
Everyone said it would be sick and twisted and perverted etc etc which it was but no one told me it would be so well made. I honestly liked this one, quite a bit! The actors were great, the story was believable, the music was nice, the characters were sick and twisted and just awesome! The movie even had a message which unfortunately was a little bit lost under all the violence etc. It had few scenes that made laugh and the thin line between too much and appropriately was broken. If it had just a little bit less all that sick stuff, it would've been not just a sick movie but a movie with a message. Shame.
Must say that I loved the story and the twists. Because it had the kind of ending I just LOVE!
This was the only one I almost stopped. I didn't get the story and I'm not even sure if there were any actors or just sick bastards doing 'a film' which contained all of their sick perverssions. Well, obviously the actors were great even though I still feel this one was just a home video made by drug addicts/sick people.
It was filmed like a home video and that was the reason why I was quite eager to stop it. It's ok to watch sick stuff which you can indentify as a film but this one just made me fucked up. At least in the beginning, after that it was just quite boring and stupid 'cause it didn't have any kind of story or anything. This one actually almost made me vomit but that's just because I can't handle people puking all over. Yeeeeeeh....
But there was one thing I liked in a sick kind of way.
But there was one thing I liked in a sick kind of way.
[SPOILER ALERT]
There was this scene where this guy kills a woman. He slits her stomach open and take her guts out. And then he rapes her through that hole. Or how ever you wanna put it in English. Anyway, in the next scene the guy is in the bathroom crying. "Am I beautiful? Am I beautiful?" and the girlfriend comes to comfort him. "You are beautiful."
I could just hear a voice in my head go "NOOOO! YOU SICK FUCKS! YOU CAN'T DO THIS! He just killed a woman and raped her guts and now you wanna make me feel sorry for him!? NOOOOO!!!!"
Sick but interesting. Must say!
Conclusion... ?
My conclusion after all these movies is that first of all it's sexuality which makes us sick.
Second, I think I've finally found a rather stable state of mind 'cause I wasn't triggered at all by none of the films even though it had cutting and blood and all kind of stuff. I can still remember the days when I couldn't even watch some kind of basic music videos without being triggered.
For the next week I think I'm going to watch just Moomins.
