Cure (1997) – Kiyoshi Kurosawa
[25-WR]
Subtly striving for the viewer’s attention is rewarded with hypnotic disturbing discomfort.
This film creates a unique chemistry of sound and silence, control and terror.

Men (2022) – Alex Garland
[25-WR]
Disturbing short-lensed piece of horror stunningly justifying its budget with visuals that let both the right talent in and over-the-top gore out.
[25-WR]
The Lighthouse (2019) – Robert Eggers
[25-WR]
Picture-pitch perfect except for the sound of farts offensively trapping a scattered
plot inside of a frame that hits one square between the eyes.

Ägyptisches Museum und Papyrussammlung – Berlin
[25-WR]
The Pharaoh´s curse comes as a sticky security guard who’s sometimes better lit than the stolen pieces themselves guilding an architectural gem with creepy cartonnage.

DC Showcase: Death (2019) – Sam Liu
[25-WR]
There is never enough time to sketch the spectrum of human life in a few strokes.
But when it succeeds, it leaves you shockingly speechless.

Cecil Beaton Exhibit – Kampa Museum. Prague, Czech Republic
[25-WR]
In spite of “his” queenly-elegant, high-fashion posings of the “gifted class”,
his innate compassion evokes sincere smiles and matures him into Gary Cooper!
[25-WR]
Midsommar (2019) – Ari Aster
[25-WR]
Cliches are nothing but dosed up bait in an artistic horror film of compensatory length that lightens up instead of darken while blooming us away.
[25-WR]
Falling Down (1993) Movie Poster – Barry Ballaran
[25-WR]
The film’s primal-level Anger & Fear in an illustrated nutshell that calls for another one focused on the personal-level A & F instead.
[25-WR]
Le violon rouge (1998) – François Girard
[25-WR]
A beautifully crafted international film that follows the undying nomadic life of an inanimate object that both brings and ends life to those around it.
[25-WR]
Barry Lyndon (1975) – Barry Lyndon
[25-WR]
Hopefully in this day and age of long forms of entertainment such as the video podcast people can finally quit complaining about Barry Lyndon’s length.
[25-WR]
The Book Of Knots – Traineater (2007) Anti- Records
[25-WR]
This sound shaped post-industrial love letter showcases many acknowledged musicians within their strange fetishes.
Hardly accessible but rich ecstasy for open minded music geeks.
[25-WR]
Tideland (2005) – Terry Gilliam
[25-WR]
A potent and superficially alienating Terry Gilliam gem that parallels in beauty to Igmar Bergman´s Fanny Hoch Alexander (1982) in bringing up mystic childhood voodoo.
[25-WR]
Russkiy kovcheg/Russian Ark (2002) – Aleksandr Sokurov
[25-WR]
There’s a mastodon-difference between a cam-steadied cut-constricted motion picture such as Birdman (2014) or Rope (1948) and this one which is real.
[25-WR]
Intro – Mandy (2018)
[25-WR]
It starts out soberly Jacking the King Crimson lumber sap Out of a roller-coasting tree-line that dusks blood red dawns out of Death.
[25-WR]
Steak Mural (2016) Marcus Haas – Berlin, Germany
[25-WR]
Universal eye catcher with stern political connotations that elevate graffiti art into what turn-of-the-20th-century anti-imperialist graphic design still achieves today.
[25-WR]
Alter Friedhof – Bonn, Germany
[25-WR]
For the romantic hermit that is essentially hobbied at heart—microwaving steady historical isolation with short shocks that light up the whole architectural macrocosmos inside.
[25-WR]
The Tree of Life (2011) – Terrence Malick
[25-WR]
It boggles the mind to see modern beauty so densely packed into a movie-sitting. A transcendental chandelier made out of sweat, tears and chlorophyll.
