The Devil's Rejects & Slings and Arrows

The Devil's Rejects was completely reprehensible. Only the gleefulness with which the movie embraces that makes it remotely worth watching. And only watch it if you want to see gratuitous nudity, blood, and gore. Apparently, Rob Zombie's first film was even worse than this. I guess it probably had no technical expertise. Eh.

Slings and Arrows is a pretty well-done Canadian show about a theater festival putting on Hamlet. And it has Rachel McAdams, who is actually pretty good. Not really that surprising considering how good she was in Mean Girls. It's enjoyable, occasionally very very funny, occasionally very sad, and it's nice to see a show that doesn't talk down to the audience. Lots and lots of Shakespearian references, nice touches, and really just excellent. Huzzah to Sundance for the first season marathon. Yay for them showing the second season with Macbeth. I'm also looking forward to the third season's King Lear.
