I’m a Cyborg, but that’s OK

June 26, 2008

This is the most blindingly brilliant film I’ve seen in fucking ages. It’s a quirky Korean feature that ticks all the boxes. The main protagonist is Young Goon- a girl with a secret. Her secret is that she’s actually a cyborg. The majority of the film is set in a Mental Hospital where Young Goon [...]

My Shot At Love with Tila Tequila

June 18, 2008

I normally quite enjoy having lucidly psychotic and unexplainable dreams. It’s sort of like sneaking into the cinema and watching a film without having paid. Free entertainment!
