Fine, I'll throw my cap in.

The House of Yes. Don't read the spoilers. Fuck, read the spoilers. I read spoilers all the time and it never did me any harm. It only made me enjoy something less when I felt the author was taking a stupid decision (which is why I read spoilers - I read spoilers to make sure the author isn't going to do some idiot thing I don't like with the plot and waste my time - ok ok ok I do it because I can't handle the anticipation, that AND in case the plot is stupid - it's all about the journey mo'fos).

PROS

- Young Parker Posey, "indie movie queen," doing a brilliant job as a bang-up nuthouse

- JFK nostalgia, everywhere

- Lines such as "People raise cattle. Children just happen" and "Love is for tiny people with tiny lives."

- It's based on a play! So we can pretend we're literate, too. (I've never read the play, but I might!)

- It's on Netflix, all the time! Wherever else you can find it is probably super cheap because it's from '97!

- I repeat, see Parker Posey play crazy before she got type-cast for playing crazy! It's fresh. It's new. It's freaky.

- It's freaky.

CONS

- Oh, yeah, it's freaky.

- Tori Spelling is in it.

Why Do I Recommend This Movie

I've watched it three times which for me is a shitton. It's one of a very few movies that I just can't look away from, because I have a terrible attention span but this movie just keeps goin', keeps servin' out these spitballs. It's got a classic feel to it probably because it came from a play (and by that I mean the classic feel derives from the tight limitations inherent in putting on a play, such as setting and scene - the whole thing takes place over one stormy night where all players are caught in a house) (and because it implies shit, man, it doesn't say it). Because of this movie I've watched, or tried to watch, many other Parker Posey movies...and I'm tellin' ya, they're not all worth it. But this one is. It's fun.

I can't give you a Netflix link because I'm at work but I'm pretty sure if you have Netflix you can just type in "A House of Yes" or "Parker Posey."

I just totally love this movie and as a result I would be very happy to introduce other people to it, and if other people hate it and tell me why they hate it, that would be even better.
