Seven Days of The Reverend Horton Heat - Day 7: Nurture My Pig

 
This one here... this had to wait until the weekend (technically, I'm posting this on Monday, but I penned the post itself between Saturday and Sunday). This is a hard-drinking song right here. I LOVE this track - easily in my top 3 from these guys.
 



Watch:

I rewatched Jennifer Reeder's Knives and Skin this past Saturday night. Man, one of the most insanely original films I've seen in years. 

 

I may have mentioned this here before, but I feel like Reeder and Jane Schoenbrun are kind of helping fill in the gaping maw that David Lynch's death left in my life. These two Directors are so original, their work so breathtaking and of the twenty-first century, they help me contextualize the last twenty years in ways Lynch helped me contextualize the first thirty of my time here. Also, Knives and Skin was filmed not far from where I grew up, so that's pretty awesome to see here as well. 




Read:

Although I picked up and started reading Absolute Wonder Woman Volume 2 back when it hit stands in... November? I shelved it until I knew we were going to cover it 


Possibly even better than the first volume, this pretty much cements Hayden Sherman as my favorite working comic book artist. 


Possibly even better than the first volume, this pretty much cements Hayden Sherman as my favorite working comic book artist. The story evolves in a very natural way from the events in the first volume, with a recording of the Teratryde's death sound falling into the wrong hands, and Diana seeking out information that another Amazon is being held in a government Black Site called Area 41. Said site is built atop an ancient maze, and we get all manner of wonderfully odd and horrific maze denizens from Thompson and Sherman. 


Also, an interesting take on Zatana, a character the Absolute Universe introduces in a decidedly more horrific manner than the regular DCU does.
