Queer-Reviewed

In spite of life trying to kick both our asses in this month, we still got to sit down and take a dive into some oddly deadpan Brazilian pregnancy/motherhood horror that was ultimately more emotional than frightening (though goopy occasionally upsettingly gory), dipping into elements of magic realism (and realistic magic), with plenty of loose ends never once tied up. While it wasn't the high...

Will the editorial half of the team ever get an episode out "on time" again? Difficult to say. Love Lies Bleeding pushes a lot of extremely grimy meat out on limited doses of implied tension, never shies away from what is explicitly depicted, begins largely in media res and ends the same, and rounds out another entry of dirtbag lesbian cinema with aplomb.

August's episode is posting on September 1st because.... the editor never actually hit the 'save' button. (C'est la vie, and after all, we do it for free.)
