111. Twin Falls Idaho (1999) 1 day ago

This is one that I own and re-watch occasionally. I like it a lot… love the Polish brothers and thought they did an amazing job playing conjoined twins.

Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-RUwT26eNE

I just realized that I have amassed an odd collection of films with subject matter similar to this. Nice.

110. 10 Inch Hero (2007) 1 day ago

I get that this was complete love-sap, but I enjoyed it anyway. It had two of my favorite actors right now in it (Clea Duvall, Jensen Ackles), and generally just cheered me up.

PLUS, Jensen Ackles as a punk… hell yes. The only thing I really and truly hated was that these types of movies always tend to make the eccentric, oddball character clean up at the end… and that just makes no sense.

Punk Jensen, FTW.
