Accidental Exorcist
Falicki’s movies are kind of a genre unto themselves; they dare you to coin a phrase that would best sum up their sordid qualities. I’ve tried several out—dungeon chuckler, sausage slasher, grue humour, boil burster, thromedy—and have yet to land on one that does it justice. Suffice to say you’ll … Accidental ExorcistRead more
