31 & 32

31. Into The Wild (2007) - 01/27/09 - DVD:
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. The more I watch it the more genius it becomes. If anything is going to make you want to go off the grid it's this movie (except for maybe the whole SPOILER eating the wrong plant and dying thing). I really want to visit Alaska right now. I'd elaborate more but #32 is fresh on my mind and killing me. 5/5

32. Salo (1975) - 01/27/09 - DVD:
What the FUCK did I just watch?!?! Seriously?!?! I saw this on Harry Knowles' DVD list a few months back and added it on to my Netflix queue. I like to pride myself on being able to watch any and every movie (save a few musicals...god I hate those...) and figured I'd give this one a shot. There is a ton of controversy surrounding said film and now I understand why! Even to rent it on Netflix they warn you about the graphic nature. This film makes Irreversible look like Garfield 2: A Tale of Two Kitties. I can't even type the wicked and disgusting acts I just witnessed. Movies are supposed to invoke feelings....not the urge to throw up my lasagna dinner. As "art" the movie is shot well....maybe even directed well? I can't tell...I just saw people eating shit with spoons. 1/5


I was going to try and squeeze another film in tonight but after Salo I feel the urge to take a scalding hot shower and rinse my eyes out with bleach.......until then....
