Sightseers
(2012)

RATING:80%
FORMAT:DVD

Hermetic Whites

Imaginative and psychologically-thoughtful look at serial killers, reminiscent of Nuts in May combined with American Translation; while accurately reflecting the moral emptiness and lovelessness of the culture that produced it.

However, as usual with the creations of White culture, there is no look at a world outside of the world shown - as if there were no space outside the world shown. This emphasizes the hermetically-sealed nature of White culture; while carefully avoiding any dramatic analysis of the personal neuroses such a world view produces.

The compensation for this inevitable schizophrenic White failing is the enjoyable black humor and the sense that - without the murders - this would be a fitting sequel to Carry On Camping.

Damages
(2007)

RATING:60%
FORMAT:DVD



Only Whites, with their paranoid culture, could be so unable to read each other (&, thus, so easily blind-sided) that conspiracy dramas like this could even appear to make any kind of sense.

Not specific enough to be about the US legal profession, this story is really about the dog-eat-dog, every-man-for-himself nature of White culture itself. (This also explains the lack of convincing Western ethnic minorities on show here.)

None of the characters possess insight into themselves or each other - and neither do the writers. Worst of all, there is no sense of a world outside of White culture to which escape is possible. It is, thus, a necessary comfort for such self-trapped Whites to assume their paranoia is somehow normal, so that they then do not have to work to change and improve as people - and as a people. Only Glenn CLOSE & Zeljko IVANEK make this at all watchable.

‘Trust no-one’ is only a motto to those who lack the experience to know what trust actually means.

Wilderness

(2006)

RATING:40%
FORMAT:DVD



Weird film about the internecine emptiness of White culture, made clear by the superficiality of its characters.

The plot is a risible compilation of better movies - particularly Most Dangerous Game & First Blood. The characters are weakly-drawn and insufficiently-differentiated - so much so that you do not really care about them and, therefore, their predicament. This is emphasized by the Americanized dialog (combined with British accents) and the mediocrity of the acting performances - with the exception of Toby KEBBEL & Lenora CRICHLOW.

One wonders if Whites really do see their own culture as a dog-eat-dog, every-man-for-himself rat race - where no-one trusts anyone and everyone is seen as nothing more than animated meat? On the evidence presented here, they clearly do; suggesting they also believe all cultures are just as bad since no other culture is referenced. (Without any other developed theme, there is no other conclusion to come to.)

Blood ‘n’ guts without drama is just like looking into a bucket of vomit and pretending that what you find there is of overwhelming interest.

Sleep of Reason:



The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.

Terence… (circa 190-159 BC), Roman dramatist. Chremes, in The Self-Tormentor [Heauton Timorumenos], act 1, scene 1.


Führerprinzip:



One leader, one people, signifies one master and millions of slaves… There is no organ of conciliation or mediation interposed between the leader and the people, nothing in fact but the apparatus - in other words, the party - which is the emanation of the leader and the tool of his will to oppress. In this way the first and sole principle of this degraded form of mysticism is born, the Führerprinzip, which restores idolatry and a debased deity to the world of nihilism.
