So, because Noodles enjoys fellating me, this week he has turned the shitstream movie list over to me! This week, the movies will not be shit! However, because I am a harsh benefactor I have decided that he shall play only movies showcasing the darkest ennui this world has to offer. You're welcome.

First up will be a movie recommended by blessezmoi, guaranteed to make you feel either sad or claustrophobic*, or both. Starring Ryan Reynolds, directed by Chris Cortez, and with a Rotten Tomatoes score of 87%, it's:

Second on the docket is a fucked up psychological horror classic. Chock full of visuals that inspired the likes of Silent Hill and your second cousin's film school final project, it's Jacob's Ladder! It'll leave you wondering if reality is real and where the limits of sanity lie.

And to end things off, we'll be turning to a lighter note with Stephen King's The Mist. Most accurately termed an action horror, this film is really a commentary about what happens when small town mentality is reduced to life in a metaphorical petri dish on the verge of what might be the apocalypse. It's a personal favorite, and is definitely not to be missed.

Don't despair though, intermissions will be happy baby animal videos and heavy drinking so we don't all wind up crying into our safety blankets by the end of the night. Plus, as always, there's a porn parody for the after party and this week we'll be showing Tosh.Hole! Gay porn without skipping the sex scenes! It's a Christmas miracle!

So join us, won't you, for the first (and possibly last) time I'll be allowed to inflict my painful, painful film taste on the stream.

Saturday 3pm EST at http://original.livestream.com/kagato23

*it should go without saying, but trigger warnings are in place for those who do suffer from claustrophobia. Viewer discretion is advised.

I don't know if I can handle Buried, but I do love Jacob's Ladder and The Mist.

I will be there to hold you when it gets scary.

Aw. I just can't do those sort of "hopeless situation" movies, plus the claustrophobic content? *shudder*

Aww. :(

yeahhh probably the same for me

To cheer everyone up, how about some nice music:

("Now Have I Fed and Eaten up the Rose" translated by James Joyce from Gottfried Keller's Songs of One Prematurely Buried, set by Samuel Barber)

Ahh, Buried. I am never watching that again, sorry. :< The ending of that killed me.

Ssshhh. No stream spoilers.

*shhhhhs* Sorry. :x

It's okay. And yeah, not a lot of people are interested in Buried it seems. The other two are less stomach-churning though, so I won't mind if people want to show up and then go afk or just show up for the other two.

Even noodles might not be around for that one for much of it.

oh my god we're watching jacob's ladder
while i'm stuck at my mom's for the weekend

....I'll bring headphones. ~~and an extra pillow to muffle my screaming like a baby goat~~

I can always count on you, flip! :D

FUCK YEAH! I am actually going to this one (not a big fan of the terrible movies). I love Buried. I saw Jacob's Ladder a long time ago and I think I enjoyed it. I have not seen The Mist but I heard it was good (plus I liked the short story it is based on).

Edited 2015-05-18 23:42 (UTC)

Yay!! I'm so stoked you like my taste in movies!

The Mist is one of my favorite movies of all time, so. I'll be looking forward to seeing you there!

I love depressing movies. ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

So do I. I get so sick of Hollywood sometimes that a good palate cleanser is just the thing to get me back in the game.

Hell, I love Downer Ending everything except for fanfic.

I think a fanfic can have a downer ending as long as it's a setup for something else, but yeah. There's a difference between fanfic and movies though, in that fanfic isn't oversaturated with happy fluffy fluff, so there's not as much to appreciate about it when it's not.

The only downer endings in fanfic I can stand are for super short fics. I can't read a long one that is going to end terribly. D:

You said The Mist is lighter compared to buried so now I'm intrigued. I suspect I'll be at work when you stream though :(

:( I hope you can make it for at least part of it then.

:( I'll be going to a party afterwards. Missing out on Eurovision AND streams :( oh the sacrifices we make :(
