I used to be on a few private trackers, but fell out of the scene and started just using 1337x.to

Any sites out there that are good? Particularly for newer horror movies?

Prince of Darkness (1987)

I haven’t seen this one so can’t give as detailed and loving a writeup as I did for Ghosts of Mars. But here’s what Wikipedia has to say: “The second installment in what Carpenter calls his "Apocalypse Trilogy"—which began with The Thing (1982) and concludes with In the Mouth of Madness (1994)[2]—the film follows a group of quantum physics students in Los Angeles who are asked to assist a Catholic priest in investigating an ancient cylinder of liquid discovered in a monastery, which they come to find is a sentient, liquid embodiment of Satan.”

It’s John Carpenter and it isn’t Vampire$ so it has to be good, right?

It’s 1h41min long so we will try to start promptly at 5:30 Eastern US Time to provide for enough buffer and not eat into the regularly scheduled movie night which starts at 8PM Eastern US time (but as always it may depend when I get home). Aiming for a hard start time at the latest by 6PM Eastern US time. My volunteer shifts have been getting done a little early this week so I may be able to start closer to 5:30 than previous times when I’ve been fashionably late to my own movie showing.

Content Warnings:

• blanket warning for “severe gore”

• stabbings, lots of blood.

• Suicide

• Dismemberment and decapitation shown

• “bloody, deformed grisly faces”

• “There are many intense scenes most involve close up of bugs which can be very disturbing and will make you squirm”

• jump scares

• dead animals — a man finds a pigeon tied to a cross, which is going to make me very sad to see

• lots of bugs crawling on people

• eye, finger, bone mutilation.

• sexual harassment? According to UnconsentingMedia, but the note makes it ambiguous and DTDD disagrees.

This week we're watching "The Indians in the 17th Century", "The Indians in the 18th Century", "The End of the French Dream", "The 13 Colonies Towards Independence", and "The War of Independence", so on the whole we're covering the 17th and 18th centuries tonight. Each episode's runtime is roughly 24 minutes, so we're looking at 120 minutes or 2 hours of scheduled content.

Plot summary: There's not really much to say about the premise of Once Upon a Time... The Americas since it's just, y'know, the history of the continent of Abya Yala told through vignettes with the recurring cast of characters we all know and love from the previous three OUAT shows (Man, Space, and Life).

Content warnings and accessibility

Audio description: Not available.

Sign language: Not available.

Language of audio: English (4 episodes) Spanish (1 episode).

Captions: There are English hardsubs on the Spanish-language episode; the other episodes have no subtitles.

Content warnings:

These are content warnings for Albert Barillé's Once Upon a Time... in general:

• Death incl. murder
• Sexual assault
• Nudity
• Animal gore
• Disease
• Racist caricatures
• Religion presented as fact
• Eurocentrism
• Children getting serious diseases
• Vanishing Indian myth
• Problematic depictions of cops, slavery, and settler-colonialism
• Problematic depictions of race and class issues in general

So although Once Upon a Time... The Americas is a kids' show, you should still expect it to get pretty damn yeesh, just like its predecessors. Two weeks ago someone actually had to leave early because their "blood boiled" from the show's coverage of Columbus et al.

For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, first up is Elle (2016), a French revenge thriller from renowned schlock-auteur Paul Verhoeven. A video game designer (Isabelle Huppert) is assaulted in her home by a shadowy figure. She then uses her hyper-organized, routine mannerisms and analytical skills to track him down and exact some justice. In true Verhoeven fashion, though, these events end up playing out in a subversive, satirical, and darkly-comedic manner, with his usual shock antics on full display, as in Showgirls (1995) or Benedetta (2021), both of which we previously watched. Great reviews for this, so let’s check it out.

After that is The ‘Burbs (1989), a horror-comedy-satire from Joe Dante, the guy behind such live-actions cartoons as Gremlins (1984), Gremlins 2 (1990), and Small Soldiers (1998), all of which we have previously watched. Tom Hanks stars as a suburbanite who suspects his new neighbors are actually evil, and ropes his friends into spying on them to expose their treachery. Hilarity ensues as the bumbling group tries desperately to find some measure of adventure in their bland, bougie world. Good reviews for this one, too.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:

Series 1 of Romanzo Criminale goes out with a bang. Episode 11 begins with Inspector Scialoja in Modena, several hundred kilometers north of Rome, following the last visit he got from Italian Deep State Mr. Show. It is August 1980. The Bologna Massacre has just taken place, just down the road from Modena. Is there a connection?

Meanwhile in Rome, the gang find themselves increasingly ensnared in GLADIO shenanigans. Episode 12 sees Inspector Scialoja take on the secret services while Libanese attempts to convert his horizontally-organized criminal organization into a more corporate structure. Meanwhile, the Years of Lead continue to happen. Events continue to escalate. The deep state shows up more and more. We end on a cliffhanger.

a description of the series from the IMDB page:

The series is partially based on Banda della Magliana, a 1970s criminal organization active in Rome led by three friends, Libanese, Freddo and Dandi, who attempted to merge local gangs in a mafia feud like Sicilian and Neapolitan organizations. Their history matched with right-wing terrorism groups, deviated secret service, masonic lodges and financial affairs.

I'm doing blanket CWs for the series. Expect lots of gore, sex, drugs.

CWs:

• Graphic violence
• Murder
• Execution by gunshot
• Kidnapping
• Explicit substance use
• Misogyny
• Homophobia
• Police brutality
• Sex, nude scenes, objectification of women
• Violence, blood, and gore
• Graphic depictions of sexual assault
