    It’s been deeply satisfying to watch RLM tackle the bizarre Crank series. a pair of R-rated Looney Toon movies laser targeted at film sickos. simultaneously the dumbest and smartest anti-films of their generation. youtu.be/BrCxgyxciJo?...

    #Rewatched Crank: High Voltage (2009) - I realized it’s been like 5 years since I last saw this masterpiece! Quite possibly the most gratuitous movie ever made, in every possible way. The movie where a dude uses Statham’s open chest cavity as an ashtray. What more can I say but “Fuck you Chelios!!”

    We all owe a great debt to the visionary 2006 film Crank, the first film to ask the question “what if a woman got railed in a sundress?” A heartbreaking work of staggering genius.

    Crank 2 is one of the only American movies that comes close to capturing the insanity of a Story of Ricky or Tetsuo the Iron Man. You know that wild first ten minutes of Miike’s DOA before the film slows waaaayyy down? That’s this entire movie.

    #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Zookeeper, mid even by Kevin James movie standards. Crank, gotta respect the commitment. No Country For Old Men, Javier Bardem killing it.

    Elections in the US aren't about if people like one candidate over the other as much as they are about attendance. Dems outnumber republicans. But republicans show up, Dems don’t. If the Dems turn out, republicans loose. So the rule of GOP evil for years has been keep their misdeeds subtle and dismissible. Crank up the heat gradually. Then trump came along and blew that up since he’s about as subtle as a tornado in a trailer park. Now everyone understands the GOP tactics, the Dems have…
