CINEMA CONTRA POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

"REFLIX" Issue No. ' 2

(June 2010)

Fee: Free (gratis garnish of the "DER ZWERGPIRAT" fanzine)

With the curent issue of the "DER ZWERGPIRAT" fanzine also the new issue of the new "REFLIX" movie or cinema (fan)zine is coming. Coming again, after already the first issue of the "REFLIX" was released before as the gratis garnish of the former "DER ZWERGPIRAT" fanzine issue. Ah, and the "REFLIX" mastermind is also regulary with articles featured in the "DER ZWERGPIRAT", with articles also about movies but also about music and other stuff. Like before we do ge a big load of several underground movies, now-a-days with a lot of Splatter-, Gore-, Torture-, and/or Horrormovies, covering a time period from the 1960's to the present day. Starting with some words to the introduction of or in this issue, but just some short words, and on and ahead on the journey into the politically uncorrect world of movies and cinema we go. Introduction(s) of and tributes to movies like "DEATH SCENES I-III" (if I understood it right it's comparable to this "FACES OF DEATH" bullshit, who needs crap like this...). They feature also some 'prominent guys' that fall victim to 'violent assaults'(and stuff like this) and stupid jackasses like Anton LaVey (hahahahaha) that are speaking some introduction words or what-so-ever, yehp, crap that I don't need!!! Do you need it?!? Oh, come on... Also we get a very, very well-done tribute to the legendary brazilian Horrormovie regisseur Josè Mojica Marins and his work(s), and that's really great to read, thumbs up!!! Then we do get also a big bunch of movie reviews from "THOU SHALL NOT KILL, EXCEPT..." to "MAN WITH THE SCREAMING BRAIN" and "BUBBA HO-TEP" (two great movies, for sure, and yes Bruce Campbell is the greatest) over "A GUN FOR JENNIFER", "THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN", "THE BLACK GESTAPO" (damn it, I really NEED to see this one!!!), "THE UNDERTAKER & HIS PALS" (sounds weird... weird and great), and "TRAILER PARK OF TERROR" (bah...). The reviews as well as the introductions and the tribute(s) are also always interpretations of the reviewed works, and all done pretty interesting at all. Okay, you really don't have to agree on everything, not even on a lot of this things, but where is that the case... Really ridiculous and stupid is from my point of view this bullshit like: "The stupid Americans and their global culture that's eliminating all the own country-specific cultures!" Come on, how stupid can it get!!! But I don't feel the need to write more about it, 'cause this is a fanzine review and not a debate on politics, so let us forget about it. And yes, like I've already said, you really don't have to agree on a lot of the 'interpretation-things' here, but hey, where is this the case at all?!? And you know what, that's also a good thing after all, maybe we can call it freedom of speech and also 'freedom of ideas', something that becomes more and more extinct these days, so let us allow it to still breath and live in freedom here on this very blog. Yes, after this 'pathos-stuff', let me point out one last thing: The "REFLIX" is a great read, it's grapping and it really is enjoying, very well-done, profound and spirited, and so it's also one arument more to go and get the newest issue of the "DER ZWERGPIRAT" fanzine and with it this little brilliant piece of passionated work called "REFLIX". Go and get it!!! Ah, to complete it, great writing, completly in german, very good black and white layout, with nice grey contrasts and sharp picture quality. I really hope that there will be coming a new issue of the "REFLIX" zine, truly a unicum of a damn good kind!!!
