Repost of tweets:

Day 2 of #TIFF09. Weekends are the hardest, got to bed at 1:30 and up at 6:30 this morning. Off to a good start, I just missed the bus…

Antichrist

What a way to start the day, with Lars Von Triers controversial ‘Antichrist’! Go watch trailer: http://bit.ly/2njEI

Apparently someone threw up at Thursday’s screening of Antichrist — awesome!

Antichrist: That will take some thought. Disturbing but not as much as made out 2 B. I liked it, just not sure how much. *** to ****

Jennifer’s Body

Next movie is Jennifer’s Body. Horror flick written by Diablo Cody & starring Megan Fox. Looks fun.

Jennifer’s Body trailer: http://bit.ly/YWYRx

Q&A with director of Jennifer’s Body, Karyn Kusama.

Jennifer’s Body was pretty good. A mainstream horror film — think Fright Night and the like. Enjoyable & fun. ***1/2

The Dirty Saints

Next film is The Dirty Saints. An apocalyptic feature. I know nothing about it. Hope it’s good.

The Dirty Saints: I fell asleep and I left during the movie. A bunch of fuckin’ nothing. *1/2

Backyard

Next film is Backyard. Mexican film about women disappearing along border. Jimmy Smits is in it. I like Jimmy Smits. 🙂

Trailer for Backyard: http://bit.ly/wXmHi

Backyard was very good. Well written, well acted, informative, etc. Recommend! ****

Four movies today: Done. Now, beer with friends!
