Trash & Treasures: The Hunger
Despite this being the most famous lesbian vampire movie, it’s the least gay of the three vampire movies we watched (it’s also above using the word “vampire,” so…).
Drunk Book Club: My Sweet Audrina
The author behind Flowers in the Attic wrote about more Southern Gothic-flavored things while handling a bunch of sensitive issues poorly. Seriously, mind the content warnings on this one.
Watching Netflix’s Death Note

Trash & Treasures – The Bad Seed

Amazing how the Cold War knew how we’d kill ourselves off. Just took a little longer than they expected.
Trash & Treasures – The Five Obstructions
Lars von Trier tries optimism. It doesn’t work.
