The Pimp's Henchman - The Pimp's Henchman, Chapter 9 (on Wattpad) https://www.wattpad.com/1300146072-the-pimp%27s-henchman-chapter-9?utm_source=web&utm_medium=tumblr&utm_content=share_reading&wp_uname=AndrewAllanFL&wp_originator=4o9JtjXMT3njXoxGSrARAzSoL9h%2BSLuEuhBQbIjZOqowTNUACVeCPP49MVzSBChmA3%2BmoZNKDSLogU7YPTOQYJeU3fsrZzcwVL%2FEMpJL9cZlxi3gLmnUMxRdy5tzLUA%2F Meet Butch. Gulf War forged, ninja trained, mob refined mean street muscle. He's ready to break legs, faces, and bodies on command. And with a turf war going on, Slide the pimp has him enforcing overtime. So, forget Sally. That hooker keeps mouthing off, shorting the take, and bragging she's got a fortune squirreled away. And she's still tricking for Slide? Please. That's crazy trouble. So, why's Butch intrigued? And how much will that cost him? Distractions can be deadly in the criminal underground ... where savages lurk, sin is religion, and the wrong move could flip Butch from trusted henchman to dead traitor faster than a jack shack romp.

anyways there’s nothing i love more than finally running into a movie i’d been trying to remember the name of. i’d been struggling to name that early 2010s south korean neonoir revenge thriller about the cop who begins a brutal game of cat and mouse with the serial killer who killed his fiancé, and when he finally gets his perfect violent grotesque revenge it brings him no catharsis at all. turns out it’s i saw the devil (2010), directed by the master of no catharsis, kim jee-woon

Movie Review | Stay Hungry (Rafelson, 1976)

I remember catching parts of this years ago on GameTV, a game-show-centric cable channel that would fill up dead air with vaguely competition-themed films. I guess there are only so many Price is Right reruns you can play on a given day before people notice. Before you ask, we didn't actually pay for it, it was just one those channels Rogers Cable had on perpetual free preview, and I have to assume the reason it lasted as long as it did was because it was likely cheap enough to run a channel on game show reruns and a handful of not especially popular movies. Anyway, the only parts I remembered are Jeff Bridges partaking in a hoedown, and R. G. Armstrong (super sleazy, with a bad hairpiece to boot) chucking weights at Bridges (not during the hoedown; this was a different scene). Upon this rewatch, I can confirm I remembered both those things correctly.

Probably the most notable thing about this movie is the cast. Aside from Bridges and Armstrong, you get Sally Field, Joe Spinell, Robert Englund, Scatman Crothers, and in a substantial supporting role, a pre-superstardom Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold hasn't nailed the finely calibrated comic timing he would achieve a decade or so later, but he's still quite charismatic at this point, and the movie uses him for texture, one of a number of character actors helping to breathe life into the particular world the movie depicts. Something that's fun to consider is how if you took these actors and put them together in any other decade, it would make for a completely different movie. Let's try it out. Bridges and Spinell working together in the '80s would likely mean a neonoir or urban thriller, the latter probably playing a sleazy lawyer or something, and maybe Englund playing some poor bastard who's been wrongfully accused of some horrific crime. Or Arnold and Sally Field in the '90s, the former going undercover in drag for action-packed and/or comedic results. Now if we all work together, we can Mandela Effect these into existence, Goncharov-style. What do you mean you haven't seen Fraulein Dautfeuer? I guess your folks didn't have a VHS player growing up.

As for the actual movie, it's interesting how it resists easy classification. It's about a few things: a hero rejecting the rigid expectations of his class, a predatory patriarch exploiting the athletes under his wing, a portrait of the south at a very particular time. Most movies would opt to be just one of those things. This one drifts across all three at a leisurely pace, less interested in finding a clear trajectory than in just basking in its environment. There is plenty of humour, less in the form of gags than in the eccentric details that fill the movie. (Exhibit A: Crothers returning after resigning so he can take the suit of knight's armour that was willed to him. Exhibit B: A swarm of bodybuilders running through the streets searching of Arnold only to end up posing at the request of bystanders. Exhibit C: A shakedown foiled by karate.) I don't know how much it really amounts to, but I like these actors and I enjoyed spending time with them. Also, Arnold plays the fiddle, which automatically makes this a good movie.

31 Day Horror Movie Challenge

#3 Following (1998)

Directed and Written by Christopher Nolan (

This may be considered a student film, except Christopher Nolan did not go to Film School. He is self-taught. The movie took a year to film. because everyone had day jobs. They filmed every Saturday, roughly 15 minutes of footage, every week.

Summary: Before he became a sensation with the twisty revenge story "Memento," Christopher Nolan fashioned this low-budget, 16 mm black-and-white neonoir. FOLLOWING is the fragmented tale of an unemployed young writer who trails strangers through London, hoping that they will provide inspiration for his first novel. He gets more than he bargained for when one of his unwitting subjects leads him down a dark criminal path.

Quick Review: The genius of Christopher Nolan was evident even before he ever came to Hollywood. The movie is NOT told in chronological order. He used a similar technique in his first Hollywood movie, "Memento." But this one is even more twisty in its story telling, making for compelling viewing as you figure out what is actually happening. Not horror, it's crime thriller suspense. (I should watch an extra movie just to make up for this one.)

One False Move, 1992

One False Move, 1992, directed by Carl Franklin. Starring Billy Bob Thornton alongside Bill Paxton and Cynda Williams.

A small town police chief awaits the arrival of a gang of three criminals on the run from Los Angeles to Arkansas. Underestimating the town's sheriff Dale Dixon (Bill Paxton), the criminals have no idea what they are about to face. Also in parallel there is a second story involves the interaction between Arkansas sheriff and two tough Los Angeles cops who fly out to join him in a trap for the fugitives..

This amazing movie lifts you up with an extra power awaking your senses and your mind and reflecting a variety of emotions about the six black and white heroes..This film is not only a story about crimes or black-white “relationships”..it is more than a analysis about characters, personalities and stereotypes.

The performance of film stars Thornton, Bill Paxton and Cynda Williams was amazing and unforgettable!

The movie was written by Billy Bob Thornton and Tom Epperson.

Door Mouse. Is She Squeaky Clean in this Whodunit?

It's time to catch a Door Mouse! This #Canada made #neonoir #thriller bu @AvanJogia has moments to like, and we got a #moviereview on why this story matters!

Available in select theatres and digitally starting on January 13th Elevation Pictures Door Mouse has plenty of Quinten Tarantino and punk rock vibes in its story about Mouse (Hayley Law), a comic book illustrator whose only real paying job is that of a burlesque performer. But when her colleagues get kidnapped, she becomes a gumshoe with a mission–to protect her sisters from the hood. They…

The Minute You Wake Up Dead

The Minute You Wake Up Dead #MovieReview #Thriller #NeoNoir The Minute You Wake up Dead is contrived, convoluted, and far-fetched (even for neo-noir standards), the inconsistencies too many and too obvious to ignore

The Minute You Wake up Dead is contrived, convoluted, and far-fetched — even for neo-noir standards. You know you’ve watched a great noir when you look back and the whole thing doesn’t quite make a hell of a lot of sense. The genre is all about style; the film must make its statement, not with what is said, but with how and where it is said, and how people look when they are saying it.  Thus, it…
