Everyone Should Be Required to Watch the Last 15 Minutes of Cronenberg's 'The Brood.'

I should explain myself. I used to write this blog. My last entry was more than three months ago. I kept telling people I would update. I kept telling them I would write about "Inglourious Basterds."

Well, I'm a fucking liar. I'm not writing about "Inglourious Basterds" now, but when the DVD comes out in December, I hope to get an entry for it.

Enough sincere apologies, I want to talk about watching movies for Halloween. I'm three days too late, but I don't think anyone has read The Truth about Halloween movie watching--assuming you've been reading the same stuff I've been reading.

You only need about 15 minutes, perhaps less, and a DVD of David Cronenberg's "The Brood." Unless you want to risk boredom or dissatisfaction, do not attempt to watch this film in its entirety. It has really shitty dialogue and acting. Alright, you got the DVD already? Skip to the scene where a man is confronting a woman and start watching. You may stop the movie when you see enough.

I realize not everyone will be inspired to find "The Brood," so I'll motivate you with these three words about the film's climax: bloody fetus licking.

So the next time someone recommends you a "great horror film you have never seen," remember this. The ending of the "The Brood" is probably more disturbing, and you only need about 15 minutes to fuck your sensibilities.
