Okay, you’re going to think I’m a sicko, but when Chris told me there was a documentary made circumscribing events involving a richie being humped to death by a horse, I asked him to track the sucker down. Morbid curiosity [...]
In the age of express liposuck and lunch hour genitalia remodeling, what’s the big deal if someone wanted their leg removed? Is repeatedly shaving down your nose or shooting botulism into your brow any less crazy? Aren’t both cosmetic alterations developing from a societal urge to conform, an out-of-control fear of rejection? [...]
Chris rolls his eyes at me but obligingly spins the car around, heading back towards something I whined about missing during our serendipitous in-motion drive-by photo-op. It’s a shell of a building seemingly built out of graffiti, layer upon layer of splayed and swirly signature scribbles or tags, but in this remote sketchy part [...]
Our second issue of Dreamlogic.net’s DVD Drop-Box brings us two titles from Vivendi Universal: Cougar Club and Nearing Grace. On with the show.
*UPDATE* And one from Palm Pictures: Snow Dogs.
Edit: It has been brought to my attention that Cougar Club is not a National Lampoon’s movie. Not sure where I picked that up, but [...]
The DVD (SHE SAID)
Oh, you know those little mistakes in life you regret? I regret agreeing to do this review. First off, I remember thinking “damn, they ripped off Curve” when Garbage first hit the scene, then I remember being puzzled when my otherwise gentleman-y and sickly sweet friend said “Shirley Manson is [...]
Hunched over like he has a hernia and strumming his guitar, Texas native Roger “Roky” Erickson interjects the melody with screeching wails inspired by Little Richard and James Brown and surprisingly “Oh Holy Night” from his churchy childhood. During opening interviews with him and his exes in the documentary You’re Gonna Miss Me When [...]
When I was first introduced to Frank Gehry’s work, I honestly did not like it. Giant binoculars (Chiat/Day/Mojo Headquarters) and fish sculptures (Fishdance restaurant in Kobe, Japan), oh how literal. His Nationale-Nederlanden office building in Prague is Dali-esque at best and his Wynton Guest House looked like kinderblocks to me. Really, I [...]
One thing you may not suspect is that as much as I dig film, computing, science, and writing, I’m also dig history. In fact, at one point in my academic career I even considered History as a possible major. These days however, I am content to watch the History Channel, Discovery Channel, PBS’s Nova and [...]
So we’re starting a new segment at Dreamlogic.net, reviewing short film submissions by local filmmakers. Our first Submission comes to us from San Francisco’s Jeffrey Lei. A mockumentary about a fictional Asian male porn megastar in the 1970’s titled, simply enough, Dick Ho: Asian Male Porn Star.
A mix of big foot documentary and television’s Unsolved [...]
DO NOT MISS THIS ONE
For such a small word, WAR imbibes and evokes the presence of fear, destruction, and humility. But does it hold any connotations with the word humanity? Americans as a nation wholeheartedly supported and slaved for WWI, turned a deaf ear on the Korean War, then split on the controversial Vietnam [...]
WAS BUKOWSKI’S LIFE FACT OR FICTION? Womanizing bastard. Insolent egoist. Bukowski was a rare someone who didn’t give a hoot what you thought about him, plain and simple. He was a dirty old man whose sardonic rants ran rank, slippery with booze, and often trickled over into the obscene and pornographic. He bedded women for [...]
