I watched
The Bay today. Hilaribad with no idea of how parasites work (Do you know what you call a parasite that actively kills its host? Extinct.) and the line "It may be a fungal bacteria" uttered in dead seriousness. Totally worth the Netflix stream to watch people get eaten from the inside out by
these innocuous chubsters:
So darling! You can even keep a giant species of them as a pet in Animal Crossing. You'd think they would have gone with guinea worms or somethin'.
Also they gave bogleech.com's curator $200 because they used real Google results and
his design was among them and his tongue-biter shirt sales spiked for a while afterward, so it is a Good Movie.
On a less dumb-as-all-hell note, my sister and I watched
Antiviral. It held its own as a medical espionage movie, but they pushed the BABY CRONENBERG'S FIRST FILM LOOK AT ALL THIS BODY HORROR angle so hard in the trailers that it probably disappointed a lot of people. It
does have some good fuckin' body horror, mind, Matt is very much his father's son, but if you're looking for Videodrome, you're not going to find it. A good start to a career, though.
