LA&M Finishes The 2023 FETISH FILM FORUM with CRISTIANA: DEVIL NUN

Posted on December 15, 2023 by Cinema Crazed

The Leather Archives & Museum is thrilled to continue Fetish Film Forum, a new monthly screening series about sex, relationships, and art. These ten erotic films spanning nine countries and six decades are stunning explorations of fetish, kink, leather, and BDSM.

Many folks in this world have made room for Christ, but we’re making room for Cristiana: Devil Nun. Sexually liberated Cristiana enjoys sex on a plane in front of the other passengers until a storm hits and sends them plummeting from the sky. She begs her higher power for help and promises to become a nun if their lives are spared. The pilot immediately regains control of the plane, and Cristiana soon enters a convent where sex remains an everlasting temptation….

This screening of Cristiana: Devil Nun is co-presented by Corinne Halbert, a psychedelic horror artist obsessed with 1970s cult films and vintage comics. She is also the creator of Acid Nun.

Trailer for Cristiana: Devil Nun can be found here.

Fetish Film Forum trailer can be found here.

Elemental (2023)

Posted on December 14, 2023 by Felix Vasquez

People gave “Wish” a lot of guff for feeling like an AI generated movie, but I think when it comes down to it, “Elemental” is so much more guilty of this claim. “Elemental” is one of the laziest and more lethargic Disney films ever produced from Pixar and Disney. It’s such a dull concept that’s overcome by social commentary that literally clubs us over the head every chance it gets. “Elemental” is about immigration and the immigrant experience. Element city is America, or The Land of opportunity. We’re told that a least thirty times over the span of ninety minutes.

Silver Bullet (1985): 2 Disc Collector’s Edition [4K UHD/Blu-Ray]

Posted on December 12, 2023 by Felix Vasquez

I have a ton of nostalgic value attached to “Silver Bullet” as it’s one of the first hardcore horror movies I ever remember sitting down to watch, and it’s one of the first werewolf movies I ever saw, too. I fondly remember watching it as a kid with my uncle who’d moved in with us for a while and brought along his Beta tape player and a bunch of his Beta tapes to watch. Along with “The Final Chapter” and “The Making of Thriller” we must have begged him to watch “Silver Bullet” a thousand times, ad nauseum.

Every Bugs Bunny Ever: The Big Snooze (1946)

Posted on December 12, 2023 by Felix Vasquez

2023 marks the 85^th Anniversary of Bug Bunny’s first animated appearance in 1938’s “Porky’s Hare Hunt.” Debuting originally as Happy Rabbit, Bugs eventually became one of the most iconic animated characters of all time. In honor of the landmark anniversary, we’re discussing every animated appearance by Bugs Bunny. We’re big fans of Bugsy and we hope that you are, too.

Follow us on this massive journey where we discover and re-discover Every Bugs Bunny Ever.

The Big Snooze (1946)
Directed by Bob Clampett
Written by Bob Clampett
Music by Carl W. Stalling
Animation by Rod Scribner

Bob Clampett really did have a way of leaning in to the bizarre. He had a penchant for injecting surreal and out there comedy that not even Tex Avery was capable of accomplishing. That’s both a good thing and hindrance as I personally was never a big fan of Clampett’s habit for the weird. I always hated the “Yoyo DoDo” character as well as his first appearance in 1938’s “Porky in Wackyland.” And I was very annoyed when they made him something of a big part of “Tiny Toon Adventures.” I’m not against the animators venturing out of the norm and breaking the monotony, but Clampett always went too far in the other direction for my tastes.

The Mission (2023)

Posted on December 10, 2023 by Felix Vasquez

Director Jesse Moss and Amanda McBaine’s Nat Geo film “The Mission” is one of the most frustrating movies of the year. It’s a documentary that tip toes through its subject matter to its detriment, and avoids the outright reality of a situation that should have never happened and a life that should have never been taken. In 2018 American missionary John Chau was murdered in an illegal expedition to preach his religion to the isolated village of the Sentinelese tribe off the coast of India.
