hobo with a shot gun is so close to a lost video nasty from the 70s to the 80s...and the problem with that, is tht the ironic reworking of pop trash since that time meant that the gendered violence would be deconstructed and reconstruction so the woman was clearly the victim, there were several scenes that approached rape, and it was icky. (it was also awesome, and outrageous and funny and bizarre, and featured tentacles for no good reason, and had some amazing lines

“In fact viewership of al Jazeera is going up in the United States because it’s real news. You may not agree with it, but you feel like you’re getting real news around the clock instead of a million commercials and, you know, arguments between talking heads and the kind of stuff that we do on our news which, you know, is not particularly informative to us, let alone foreigners,” she added.

Phoebe Palmer diary (1847):
After class, went to see Mrs. Pillow, who has lately returned from the residence (of months I believe) among the “Shakers.” She had become so far deluded, during her residence with them, that she renounced all earthly obligations to her husband and family, and the pursuasions of a kind husband were unavailing, in urging her return. His only alternative was to take out a writ, and demand her person by law.
O, how dangerous is the least departure from the Written Word. A dependence on revelations or anything not fully sanctioned,–who can tell where the evil of such a dependence may end? I urged the authority of the plain Written Word, relative to the duties which she had renounced, and she informed me that the Shaking Quakers had received superior light in reference to these subjects, and revelations in connection with them, which the “Children of this world” (of which she regards me as being one) could not apprehend.
I assured her that if they gained this superior light by adding their revelations to make up the amount of God’s requirements by the testimony of the Scriptures themselves, they were condemned. The volume of revelation being closed, God had now declared, “If any man shall add to the words of this Book, God shall add to him the plagues written in this Book, or, if any man shall take away from the words of this Book, God shall take away his part out of the book of life,” etc. And, no prophecy of the Scripture being of any private interpretation, I conceived it to be impossible that they should have light on the Scriptures which any other disciple of Jesus might not have.
I spent perhaps an hour, with seemingly but little profit, in urging Mrs. P. to the importance of keeping close to the revealed will of God, as recorded in the Bible, with perhaps little other benefit than that of driving her to the conclusion that she must have required something beside Scripture, in bringing her to embrace such a faith. I left, deeply convinced of the danger of stepping aside, in the smallest degree, from the Written Word, assured that such a remove, however small, is getting on Satan’s ground,—just where he claims as his right, the privilege of carrying us away with every wind of doctrine.

saw the big heat, late fritz lang movie---solid movie, tight, well constructed, slightly political, beautifully acted, with lee marvin as a pyschopath who commits an act of violence as fucked up as the cagney/grapefruit one.
but it has this amazing scene, with a woman who has a face half burnt off with coffee, laying on a mink jacket, and a pillow the texture of the correct skin, the burned skin, the mink and the silk is one of the most beautiful things ive seen in movies this year
(last night, big concert, two awful bands, a good band that i knew was good (bombay bicycle club), a band that i had previously dismissed (hollardo), and a decent hip hop guy. also janelle monae, but the mix was bad and i was seizey, so that didnt turn out as well.
had dinner with chris and a walk around lesliville
