Štefan Kuffa looks like a biological child of these three mfs (without the Duke (too handsome)). Like, he could replace any of them and I wouldn't notice😭
How could she ever hate them for what was at bottom merely their weakness? She would probably have done things like those that had befallen her if she had lived in one of these houses. To measure them by her own yardstick, as her father put it. Would she not, in all honesty, have done the same as Chuck and Vera and Ben and Mrs Henson and Tom and all these people in their houses? Grace paused and as she did, the clouds scattered and let the moonlight through, and Dogville underwent another of those little changes of light. It was as if the light previously so merciful and faint finally refused to cover up for the town any longer. Suddenly, you could no longer imagine a berry that would appear one day on a gooseberry bush, but only see the thorn that was there right now. The light now penetrated every unevenness and flaw in the buildings and in the people. And all of a sudden, she knew the answer to her question all too well. If she had acted like them, she could not have defended a single one of her actions and could not have condemned them harshly enough. It was as if her sorrow and pain finally assumed their rightful place. No. What they had done was not good enough. And if one had the power to put it to rights, it was one's duty to do so - for the sake of other towns, for the sake of humanity and not least, for the sake of the human being that was Grace herself.

Die Gottesmutter ending, oh my god. OH MY GOD! OH MY GAAAAAAAHHDD! (I loved it)
as a society i don’t think we talk enough about how fucking funny bride of reanimator really is. the main antagonist of the movie is the decapitated head of the bad guy from the first movie but with a pair of bat wings sewn onto him. herbert tries to bribe dan into frankenstein activities by offering him his dead girlfriend’s heart and it WORKS. herbert then gets so mad that dan’s having sex with a woman that he decides to stick a random arm and leg together and bring it to life to distract himself. it immediately strangles him. that fisheye lens shot of herbert when he’s calling hill’s head a “no-body”. francesca’s dog getting a human arm put on it which is clearly just a guy holding up his hand behind a regular dog. herbert is regularly lurking in the walls. simply the line “my god, they’re using tools!” the movie starts with herbert and dan at war in PERU??? the last movie ended in massachusetts. there’s a specific “goop wrangler” listed in the credits. peak cinema i dare say.
how to tell my parents my dream job is studying Sacher-Masoch? no borax, no glue.
As an adult you must cultivate the skill of “Gross! Oh, well. Not my business.”
