Viewing Notes

First movie in Paul’s watch party via Kast with a food theme. Had this flick added to my watchlist from last year when it was tangentially getting mentioned during the protests / riots. Cool that Paul finally programmed it altho I wasn’t quite in the mood for a black comedy / social commentary this evening. So this might be better than my rating suggests and this feels like it would be at home on VinSyn. I do love that Lemmy is given a prominent role (plus all the Motörhead music!).

Unrelated but since I was also sorting trash and whatnot I did find my shredder buried in a box and it still worked! So I shred a bunch of stuff during this movie. Hahahaha
