“My little pony” part has destroyed something in meXD Now I will never look at my two little cousins playing with their ponies toys without image from this review.^_^””
Yay, more minions!
Wait, if you want to sue director, can’t you just time travel like these two minions in “Biggles” review?;)

    Hmmm…So you just need to send two minions and a newborn baby to 1917. Adult minions will play the role of “parents” and programme kid that in 199something he must find director of “Preaching to the perverted” (or if he is too old for this mission, when he gets 30-40 years old, kidnaps a baby and turn it into Minion the directors killer or sth like that).
    You can also send a robot, who will wait in hibarnation to the day when it will wake up in right time and will find the director.;)

    It works like the TARDIS did after The Doctor sabotaged it at the end of Utopia? It could only take you to 2 places as well.

Wow- surprised to find out Guinevere Turner wrote bloodrayne. I liked the other movies she’s written like American Psycho and the notorious bettie page. Plus she’s pretty entertaining even in just these segments- I think I may need to add this film to my watch list.

Loved the doctor who reference at the start, although my favourite was the unexpected raspberry reich shout out.

  I still think it is funny when Guinevere Turner says “I am not a lesbian” on American Psycho. I would like to see a bunch of flubs when she could not keep a straight face saying that line.

    It just shows you what a great actress she is.

Gotta say, you should have left the part about this movie being made about you till the end, although as it goes, it does make perfect sense how it’s all about you.

Also, love the ringtone!

Hail Hagen.

If you’ve seen CSI, you’re probably familiar with the dominatrix Lady Heather. What’s your take on her? Besides her gorgeousness.

first and only bdsm romcom?

first maybe, but only? secretary is one, than tokyo decadence and-well shortbus has severin, a domme, but isnt about bdsm (but a damn good movie. watch it! all scenes are real sex, but, its hard to tell in a foreign language.. sex is kinda storytelling device here but a good one. watch it. watch it watch it watch it. its great^^

  Personally I wouldnt call Secretary a ‘Rom-Com’. A comedy with romance?sure but not a Rom-Com. Shortbus I wouldn’t calla BDSM anything really (but it is a good film!)
  
  Hoping hard that Preaching… gets its Blu-Ray release?

ah, somebody likes shortbus (but loving would be better. gah i love this mooovie. especially this, well subtle but ever there being sense of.. sadness? (well how put that this nice young japan-bondagemodel in the video.. ?
(she spoke about her feelings while hanging in shibari, but her word match that what i feel about this 2 movies)

“its not pain, sometime its happiness, sometimes its sad-there […] no english for dieses gefühl, in japan its called “setsunai”, its like between happy and sadness”

( i think if you´d translate setsunai according to the literal meaning its more like “cruel” or “bitter”-and well, maybe that fits more to diamanda ;).)
well, this is, la chef´e de haganistan. or such.^^

what i like about both-shortbus and secretary. they have all this other, very serious and, hmn, deep side which i loke very much.(although the connection self harm+ bdsm annoys me-but well i am in a glass house and hould star bury a hole to hide in, instead of throwing scones *g*)

Greetings and such.

My dear Mother Mysterious recently celebrated her 50th birthday. So, as the loving son that I am, I got her one of those brand new DVDs of the restored & remastered version of Preaching to the Perverted.

She was apparently so “overjoyed” that she let me have the honour to review it first 😀
Which I will, in due time.

As a simple token of appreciation, I offer “The Dead Lands” in return. It’s a 2014 maori martial arts movie by one Toa Fraser. Riffable story, interesting execution(s). You’ve no doubt already heard of it/seen it, but just to be on the safe side…

Hail Hagan!

  I think Iv seen The Dead Lands! It was a weird mix of Apocalypto and other stuff but Maori, wasnt it? But I do watch a lot of random films so maybe my memory is a bit frayed…
