THAT Tab

i wasnt properly socialized as a puppy and it shows sometimes

obsessed with the concept of a vampire being played by a puppet in a 100% serious and otherwise all-human movie. more vampire dramas should do this

i think the vourdalak (2023) was an interesting take on vampire mythos because i feel like a lot of vampire stories are obviously about the fear of some kind of Other (the foreigner, the diseased, the sexually transgressive) so it was interesting to watch a vampire film in which the vampire is not an outside force, he is within. he's the patriarch, he's the enforcer of rules and order, he is inside the walls of your house already.

Listen, this is very important. If you liked Nosferatu (2024) dir. Robert Eggers you must go to your nearest search engine and look up The Vourdalak dir. Adrien Beau. It is of the UTMOST important that you watch this film if you liked Nosferatu. It’s about a French courtier who is robbed while traveling through Eastern Europe and must seek refuge with a local peasant family whose patriarch is transformed into a vampire who can only feed on his loved ones. It has everything you need in gothic cinema—a French dandy experiencing the Horrors, people running around in billowing nightgowns at night, a vampire played by a puppet that is genuinely sinister and represents the repressive forces of the patriarchy, Ariane Labed covered in blood, the most horrifying sucking noises known to mankind. We must not forget The Vourdalak!

cmon child safety lid you know it's me

Richard Nixon once called in staff to help him open an allergy-pill bottle. It was the childproof type of bottle, with instructions saying “Press down while turning.” The cap had teeth marks on it where Nixon had apparently tried to gnaw it open

i can’t find the reblog chain that mentions it but it’s important to me that people know it was richard nixon himself that had signed the legislation requiring child safety lids on pill bottles

marvel movies are a type of microplastic. you know what i mean
