The Preening Swan (2011)
a horror comedy must!
I recently watched Thomy Kessler's "The Preening Swan" as part of Film Festival Flix's Halloween Horror Fest, and I thought it was the ultimate horror spoof. With every aspect heightened, from hair and makeup, costumes and acting, Kessler cleverly elevates the film's hilariously thrilling plot to be more than a . Stylistically speaking, The Preening Swan is an audience pleasing fever dream where That 70's Show meets Halloween. A perfect balance between tropes, plot, and thrills allows this film to hit every mark that a dedicated horror fan could ask for in an underground throwback film. I can't wait to discover more films like it on the platform!
Kiss the Ground (2020)
Ultimate environmental doc!
"Kiss The Ground" is the ultimate environmentally rooted cinematic experience. The idea of soil regeneration is so simple yet so powerful, the solution to saving our planet is right underneath our feet. From the food we grow to how we handle the leftover scraps, "Kiss The Ground" left me feeling informed and empowered as a consumer. From environmental science experts to household names, it's inspiring to see people of all backgrounds coming together for a cause so profound in our everyday lives, and more importantly-- our future. The drive and dedication of those featured on-screen was beautiful to witness and the adoration of those off-screen was prevalent as well, accompanied by some absolutely breathtaking shots I've ever witnessed in documentary. Overall, I am moved by the simplicity of the solution, and grateful for the filmmakers' ability to make it accessible.
