Wild Things: Diamonds in the Rough created an idealized, misogynistic world where the only women in it are hot. And then made the choice to hate all the women it just made up. 2/10

Love Lies Bleeding is an engaging, nasty and occasionally muddled crime picture. It’s a great addition to WLW movie canon because of how much it does that’s unique. 7.5/10
The Origin of Evil is a pretty great example of the fucked up rich family melodrama. 7.4/10
The simultaneous high point and low point of Girls on Film is the line “you’re in a toxic relationship… with yourself.” This movie is not very good. 3.3/10
The Great Swindle gets high marks for style. But as a film about cons and deceptions, it needs much more substance in addition to its style. 5.3/10
I’m remarkable uninspired by The Retreat. I’ve seen every single aspect of this film multiple times in other places. 4.5/10
Jagged Mind isn’t nearly as thrilling as it should be. The story doesn’t live up to the premise. And it’s further let down by some technical weaknesses. 4.8/10
Sister Sister is very high on entertainment value. But don’t expect much intelligence nor focus on lesbianism. This movie understands thriller beats better than most. But its execution of those beats is uneven at best. 5.6/10
This is a middling thriller with no visible ambition of being anything other than a momentary diversion soon to be forgotten by both audience and the makers of the film. 4.4/10
There’s so many issues of taste and morals worthy of critique in Helga, She Wolf of Stilberg. But my main issue with the film is how half-assed it is. If you’re gonna go there, go there! Make a movie too extreme for me to watch. Helga wasn’t that at all. 3.2/10
