the eyes of tammy faye - pretty good, though i'd been expecting a bit more, due to all the hype. still, the puppet-intros and montages of self-delusion are well worth it.
hell house - not quite as horrifying as watching it for the first time (the AIDS/homosexuality stuff and the abortion death really make me afraid for humanity), but still fascinating.
happiness of the katakuris - i was a bit wary of this one, partly because i couldn't watch the last 20 minutes of audition, and i was somewhat expecting this to be another miike gore-fest. it's not. it's a musical. with claymation. and flying. kind of a bollywood meets high school production of west side story meets shallow grave vibe. rent it now!
