If you’re tired of cliche Hollywood movies that definitely don’t belong to an art and you want to see a really artistic performance, I can suggest two movies by Dutch director: [Scheider vs. Bax]
and [Waiter]
. I think that these movies represent the peak of Alex Carrier. All of them are a fine mixture of subtle Nordic humor paired with totally unexpected dramatic events that will easily dissolve your longing for some really neat fine art.
[Save the green planet]
is a totally unexpected find. Tired of cliche-crap hollywood “comedies” that are not even remotely fun to watch? THEN TRY THIS! Nice blend of mature black humor is always a bargain, especially in 2024.

Forget about last two [or so] seasons, because they are complete boredom!
As for me, i think that [YOUNG SHELDON]
is a worthy prequel to [Big Bang TV-series]
. Great warm analog atmosphere of 80s.Watched it excitedly in one gulp. A bit too pop, with rare deterioration in scenario quality but very solid in terms of actor performance and overall design. If you have bad mood for some reason this thing will fix you up at no time.
[KING OF THE HILL]
is a hilarious cartoon for adults, which turns rather boring [at first glance] show into complete grotesque action. The most interesting part is that such weird and funny things people are doing in real life.
Straightforward hillbilly [Hank] always protects his son [Booby] from everything interesting and unusual, turning his life into complete boredom. Presumably such disposition comes from the fact that Cotton, the father of Hank, counts him as the most miserable man in the world, don’t value his interests and opinions under any circumstances.
I almost never do reviews of Russian movies, but this one should be an exception.
After watching Shapito Show i was quite surprised to see how much efforts were invested. [Sergey Loban]
is an author of very experimental [Dust]
, which was released previously to Shapito Show. Shapito brings more artistic value and a lot of joy to watch, because of it’s own unpredictability of events. Film consist of four stories, which are happening at the same time and divided into two parts for better watching experience.
You may already noticed that i post entertaining stuff primarily around Fridays, but today is an nice exception and i’m doing it in tuesday. Most of you know [Jackie Chan]
due to [Armor Of God 1]
and [Armor OF God 2]
movies, but after watching them so many times, they’re frankly became such a boredom. As for early Chan’s movies of 70s/80s eras, they are quite weird and not so interesting to me.
[Bubba Ho-Tep]
is a quite awkward movie, but despite that is worth watching. The main reasons of such conclusion are [Bruce Campbell]
and [Brian Tyler]
. Bruce is surely known for his [Evil Dead]
acting. Brian provided stunning soundtrack, which lifts whole movie to another level.

As you may already noticed i’m fond of good ol’ black humor, which appears as it happens mostly in zombie genre.
[Juan Of The Dead]
was another unexpected discovery. Story about Cuban slackers running into open revolt of American “dissidents” primarily known as leaving dead zombies. Also i must mark the presence of excellent soundtrack, which significantly improves watching experience.
OFFICIAL TRAILER If you have any suggestions regarding films in black comedy genre i’ve missed and didn’t cover them here, please [drop me a line]
.
I thought that zombie horror comedy was already dead genre, but it looks like i was mistaken. Meet the [Final Cut]
. It is a European adaptation of Japanese movie [One Cut of the Dead]
. Just give it about 40 minutes to warm up and reach it’s culmination.

Is it a detective? Horror? Comedy? Melodrama? Or psychedelic art-house?
Giving glance onto [Twin Peaks]
we can quickly discover that movie demonstrates not only serious detective elements, unserious humor, melodramatic notes but scary horror vibes at the same time. How could it be?
Film forces watcher to experience controversial states of mind in a short amount of time and it surely features some kind of psychedelic vibes among the frames.
[Excellent comedy]
from creator of [Beavis & Butt-Head]
. When shitty KPI was just introduced. When screens were small and mice were big. When computer hardware had quality casings. For all of you, office workers!
Personal fuck-offs goes out to mama’s-boy heads, efficiency unit managers and other dumb-heads.
And yeah, you don’t have to sub, put like or sh#t like this.

Three the most glorious moments of the whole [comedy]
. Especially i like how Marv is doing cool break dance. Always splitting my sides with laughter.
