Green Inferno

Surprisingly good. Tight narration, really harsh gore-parts and it captures the overall pessimism of its role models quite well.
Could have done without the 'humorous' bits, but they were pretty moderate compared to your average 'fun splatter'-flick.

Nymphomaniac Vol. 1

Boring. Felt like some over-long coming of age-flick with a few sex-scenes and autotelic 'formal experiments' thrown in. Plus most of the humorous parts were pretty awful low pun-bullshit.

Melancholie der Engel

It definitely has its flaws (shitty dubbing, some overtly pretentious dialogue, etc), but overall a very rewarding experience.
Interesting image compositions, Fassbinder-like stylizations, great score, unconventional montage and of course lots of demented sickness (scat, bestiality, animal-snuff...).

Possession
Nothing more to say than:

Just finished Andrzej Zulawski's POSSESSION (1981). It gets my vote for one of the most 'crazy as a shithouse rat' films ever made.

Upstream Color - enjoyed this quite a bit, even though i don't know quite what to make of it. really enjoyed the score/sound design too. reminded me a bit of Beyond the Black Rainbow and Amer with it's minimal plot and dialogue and heavy focus on sound and image.

Harshest film i've seen in a while

True detective is pretty good crime series. A little mysticism, a little darkness here and there. Recommended

Just started it last night. 3 episodes in and I'm really enjoying it. Really wanted to skip work today and watch the rest of it...

finished True Detective last night. I was surprised by how conventional the ending was compared to the rest of the show. still I enjoyed it thoroughly. for all it's craziness i think though the show keeps the melodrama at a minimum. most things are just presented matter of factly which i really liked. one of the things that really stood out was the awesome score and the awesome incidental music (Sleep, Wu-Tang, Boogiedown Productions, The Melvins, and old Delta Blues stuff).
