Why did they want to kiln that poor husky !?
Oh #music by Ennio Morricone !
Hubiera sido estupendo en los ochenta un videojuego que fuera una adaptación de la película "La Cosa" de J. Carpenter. No como un arcade, sino una video aventura o un conversacional en la que se pudiera evocar tensión y miedo, probablemente a la misma altura de la que transmite la película.
I just finished watching #TheSubstance starring #DemiMoore for which she already has received a #GoldenGlobe for #BestActress in a #Musical or Comedy.
The #movie is truly #BIZZARE!!!! 
I initially thought it was intended as a #horror show but then it morphed into a #farce which had me laughing out loud at the ridiculousness if it. 
It's #TheLastShowGirl (2024) meets #TheThing (1982) and the underlying question is: What price are you willing to pay for fame & beauty?" 
I've now watched 8 out of the 10 #Oscar nominated films for #BestPicture this year and so far & The Substance is my favorite for the craziness & audacity of it all. 
I'd give it at least a 7 and maybe even an 8 out of 10 -- so call it a 7.5 which is a very high movie rating from me.
I know it won't win the Oscar -- #TheBrutalist which already won the Golden Globe for Best Picture will probably get it -- but IMO this film is better & I'm immediately adding it to my DVD buy list. 
Time to share my #LastFourWatched in this #LetterboxdFriday
The Boy and the Heron (3½★)
Nosferatu (4★)
Queer (3½★)
The Thing (3½★)

One year ago today I posted this miniature photo I shot of The Thing dog. All done practically using real lighting, figures and miniatures

There are #films that are both overwhelming & almost unbearable at the same time.
Carpenter's #TheThing is one of them, as is the #Korean masterpiece #Parasite & now #ApocalypseNow. #Movies that move me & make me want to take a break or start again!
#ApocalypseNow Redux wrestles me down. #Filmsky
