Movie Review: “Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux” (Toronto International Film Festival)
I first saw famed Canadian auteur Guy Maddin’s debut feature Tales from the Gimli Hospital at the San Francisco International Film Festival when the film was on the festival circuit in 1988, and I was instantly captivated by its old-fashioned style, gripping visuals, and decidedly offbeat sense of humor. I have been an admirer of Maddin’s work ever since, and this new Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux 4K version supported by Telefilm’s restoration program, with some additional material incorporated, took me back to that initial viewing experience, doing so with marvelous visual and audio clarity. It is impossible to place Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux neatly into one or two genres, as the film incorporates several, but suffice it to say that elements of horror, thriller, dark comedy, absurdist comedy, and other genres abound. Looking for all the world like a lost black-and-white early talking film unearthed, Tales from the Gimli Hospital Redux, shot on 16mm, uses light

Real Monsters: Pedro Lopez, The World’s Worst Serial Killer Is Free To Kill Again
There are few things more despicable than a person who hurts children. When I hear about someone abusing a child it leaves me fuming and hoping that they get a heavy dose of karma. When it comes to bad men who hurt children, there is no one on earth worse than Pedro Alonso, a kidnapper, rapist, serial killer, necrophiliac (he has sex with dead bodies), and rumored cannibal. Born on October 8, 1948, Columbian native Pedro Alonso, known as “The Monster of the Andes,” is the worst serial killer to ever walk the earth with an estimated body count of 300 victims, all children. Lopez had a rough start in life (not an excuse). His father was killed before he was born. He was the 7th of 13 children. Lopez admitted that his mother was abusive and had to turn to prostitution to take care of the family, often bringing home customers and sometimes having sex in front of Pedro

In Goodnight Mommy, “When twin brothers (Cameron and Nicholas Crovetti) arrive at their mother’s (Naomi Watts) country home to discover her face covered in bandages—the result, she explains, of recent cosmetic surgery—they immediately sense that something doesn’t add up. She sets strange new house rules, smokes in her bathroom, and secretly rips up a drawing they gave her—things their loving mother would never do. As her behavior grows increasingly bizarre and erratic, a horrifying thought takes root in the boys’ minds: The sinking suspicion that the woman beneath the gauze, who’s making their food and sleeping in the next room, isn’t their mother at all.”’ Matt Sobel (Take Me To

Evan Peters Is Jeffrey Dahmer In Netflix’s True Crime Series (Trailer)
“American Horror Story” veteran Evan Peters stars as the infamous serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer in Netflix’s new series “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” which reunites Peters with “AHS” creator Ryan Murphy. The trailer has arrived that gives us a glimpse into the depravity of the crimes of murder, necrophobic, and cannibal, Dahmer who murdered at least 17 young men and boys between 1978 and 1991. With many of his victims, he would sedate them and drill a hole in their heads and would then pour in chemicals in the hole in an attempt to create the perfect zombie lover that would never leave him. I didn’t work. The series, “chronicles the story of one of America’s most notorious serial killers (Peters), largely told from the point of view of Dahmer’s victims, and dives deeply into the police incompetence and apathy that allowed the Wisconsin native to go on a multiyear killing spree.” “Between 1978 and 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer gruesomely took
