THE @Criterion EROTIC THRILLERS THREAD:

Just a nerdy/horny thread in which an erotic thriller obsessive (me) explores the sex-noirs now streaming on the @criterionchannl and offers recs for further libidiny and viewing, if that's your thing.

criterionchannel.com/erotic-thrille… Image A lurid PSYCHO riff & deeply personal masterwork of adult horror split-screened into a world of NYC sex work, bored housewives, & blackgloved killers. The climax to De Palma’s subgenre of ‘70s pulp Hitch-shockers erected with vertiginous aesthetics & whiplashing gender politics. ImageImageImageImage

So I saw ONCE UPON A TIME...IN HOLLYWOOD and it fucked me up on levels I was not aware that I had, and I am really struggling and emotional in my response to it. I don't normally write about myself when writing about movies. BUT. (MILDEST OF SPOILERS TO COME) For the last two years I've been grappling with and mostly losing out to an overwhelming despair at my feelings of uselessness, and how time and talent I've squandered by doing nothing. I feel like I have one thing I do well (writing), and have really done nothing with it.
