Baghead

Summary: Iris Lark (Freya Allan) inherits a run-down pub in Germany from her estranged father Owen (Peter Mullan) that contains a secret: a woman with supernatural powers in its basement.

Alright January horror with interesting motif. Stupidity of character’s decisions sometimes too much to ignore. CGI fire also VERY obvious.

Rating: 2.75/5

Every movie I watched in March ranked and reviewed

ok this is a long list and idk if I'm gonna do this every month but here we go! (also summary is in the tags if you just want to see the ranking for whatever reason.)

17. Baghead (2023)

I watched this with my friend in an almost empty theater on a Wednesday afternoon and it was the funniest theatrical experience I've ever had. Movie sucks don't watch it. 2/10

16. The Help (2011)

Alright before I say anything, I really wanted to like this film. I thought everything about it was pretty good aside from the script, which was so shallow and insincere that I just couldn't connect with it. It's not bad, I just wish it did more. 4/10

15. A Star is Born (2018)

Kind of the same problems I had with The Help. Just an average movie that feels insincere and like it's trying too hard to be an academy darling. 5/10

14. The Little Mermaid / Русалочка (1976)

I'm gonna be real for a second, I didn't mean to watch this . I wanted to watch the Czech film from the same year but me (dumbass who can't tell the difference between Russian and Czech) didn't realize I was watching the wrong film. Anyways it was fine. 5/10

13. Eraserhead (1977)

I think movies with shorts scripts just irritate me. I love the atmosphere and the effects and what little script there is is fantastic, but this should've been a 50 minute short film at most. 6/10

12. Immaculate (2024)

This movie has a lot of potential and I think Sydney Sweeney is a very talented actress who seems to be a promising producer, but its first act really drags it down for me. As it goes on it gets much weirder and relies less on cheap jump scares which I really like. It's worth seeing in my opinion. 6/10

11. But I'm a Cheerleader (1999)

I don't really know how to word my thoughts on this movie, but I enjoyed it. Some of the performances and parts of the script are corny and it's not exactly incredible, but it succeeds as a queer chick flick. 7/10

10. Dogtooth / Κυνόδοντας (2009)

This might become a bit of a trend, but I really can't explain how I feel about this film. Please read the IMDB parents guide before watching it for any tws necessary (that applies to most of the films on this list so if they look interesting, check the parents guide or ask me for a list of cws.) 7/10

9. Donkey Skin / Peau d'âne (1970)

Silly and whimsical fairytale movie. Such an enjoyable little film. It's a little slow in some parts but it's very effective at capturing the feeling of a fairytale. 7/10

8. Dune: Part Two (2024)

Ok I know it's unpopular to say that this is worse than the first one but the first like 20 minutes had a shockingly bad script for no reason? The movie gets definitely gets good but that first just was so forced in its humor and genuinely kind of baffling writing wise that it dragged it down. Great movie, just weakened by a lame opening. Also I watched this twice this month. 8/10

7. Blue Velvet (1986)

This film is so cool oh my god. It's slightly repetitive in some scenes, and not in an intentional way, but other than that it's very interesting and it's a very captivating mystery. I watched this film without knowing anything about it and I recommend going in completely blind like I did. 8/10

6. Naked Lunch (1991)

What the fuck??? 8/10

5. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)

I can't really explain what I like about this movie other than it's just a good movie. It's a little too long and it's a bit unintentionally confusing but genuinely amazing even with those minor flaws. 8/10

4. Dune (2021)

This movie is so yummy. Everyone I've talked to hates that it's a serious political drama but that's what I love about it and the fact that the sequel kind of gets rid of that stuff was a bummer. Incredible effects and just amazing cinematography. I watched this three times this month btw. (Also side note, this poster is fucking atrocious.) 9/10

3. Anatomy of a Fall (2023)

Such an insanely good courtroom drama. Every scene is interesting and there aren't any parts where I was confused or bored. Incredibly well paced. 9/10

2. The Young Girls of Rochefort / Les demoiselles de Rochefort (1967)

La La Land if it was good. 10/10

1. The Zone of Interest (2023)

I don't think I'll ever be able to put into words how this movie makes me feel. Please go check it out and watch Jonathan Glazer's Oscar speech. 10/10

just an extra list of all the horror and horror-adjacent movies i’ve seen and am planning on watching (not including shows/limited series or documentaries). mainly for my own reference and in case i accidentally lose the list on my phone, but also to share b/c why not?? 

i’m sure there’s plenty i’m forgetting b/c they’re so obvious i don’t even think about them; others i’ve forgotten due to the fog of time, and some i’m still on the fence about/not sure if i want them on the list yet (either b/c i’m not sure if they count or i just may not have any interest in the first place).

[strike-throughs for ones i’ve seen, all listed in alphabetical order and w/ the year of release (some have remakes where i’ve only seen either the original or remake, so just the relevant year is stricken through). ^ this symbol for ones i thoroughly enjoyed, two ^^ for all-time faves. * this symbol for ones i also enjoyed, just not as much comparatively. ` this symbol for ones i actively dislike.]
