Scott Pilgrim vs the World
This movie very accurately depicts the world of early 20s slackers who are inarticulate and alternate overblown emotion with total lack of affect. The problem is that those people don't make very interesting movie characters, and though the filmmakers try hard to vary all the video game style fights, they really seem all the same.

The Embalmer
Peppino is a taxidermist who is also involved in the Italian mafia. He invites young, hunky Valerio to be his apprentice, but it soon starts to seem like he wants a lot more than that, although he can't articulate it, even to himself. This unapologetic look at a homosexual predator from the director of Gomorrah is interesting and moving.

Toy Story 3 and Consumer Dehumanization
The new Pixar film is packed with unsettling resonance about the dehumanization of modern American life, which is tied explicitly into consumerism. It invites us to consider how we have become disposable products, and how products inevitably end up in the garbage.

The Apple
Alphie and Bibi are two Adam and Eve-like folksingers who try to succeed in a future world where sex-charged rock has taken over every facet of society. This sci-fi musical is pretty much one of the most bizarre and downright awful things you will ever see. Catch some of the highlights here.
