For this Friday Movie Night, first up is Elevator to the Gallows (1958), a classic French film noir about a businessman who kills his boss after beginning an affair with his wife. But then his plans to cover up his actions go awry, he has to commit more crimes, and the cops start closing in. Will he get away with it? We’ll have tto watch to find out. This is considered one of the best French films of the 1950s, and one of the best works of director Louis Malle, whose movies My Dinner with Andre (1981) and Au Revoir Les Enfants (1987) we previously watched. Let’s give it a whirl.

After that is the fifth Mad Max entry, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024), George Miller’s highly-anticipated follow-up to his Australian outback action film Mad Max: Fury Road (2015). This one is a prequel that tells the origin story of Furiosa (played by Charlize Theron in Fury Road, but Anya Taylor-Joy in this one), following her quest to escape the clutches of arch-misogynist Immortan Joe and kick some butt along the way. Chicks rock.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:

For this Wednesday Super Slop Night, 8PM EST, by popular demand. It’s the legendary superpowered schoolgirl lesbian theatrical anime feature Project A-ko (1986), along with its shorter straight-to-video sequel, Project A-ko 2 (1987), both remastered! No more VHS rips. They are pretty much Chicks Rock: The Movies.

After that is The Hunger (1983), a stylish vampire romance about David Bowie discovering that his immortality is wearing off, and consulting an expert on aging on what he can do to forestall his inevitable death. He might have to feed on some young blood. Oh no! Director is Tony Scott of Top Gun (1986) and True Romance (1993) fame; this is generally considered one of his better films.

Note that Hexbear is going to have some downtime today; assuming Hextube remains up, we will begin as normal whether the main site is back up or not. If it does not, better hope the maintenance is completed in time.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:

The visual cuisine for this Tuesday night is the continuation of the third season of the Sopranos. Previously on Sopranos, Tony is having another affair with Gloria, a fellow patient he met at Dr Melfi's office, AJ got into trouble at school, and Bobby is the new official mafia santa.

The Outsiders is about a rivalry between two greaser gangs sparking after a member from one accidentally kills a member from the other gang.

Whoops I forgot what day it was.

First up is Fire and Ice, in this animated tale, a tiny village is destroyed by a surging glacier, which serves as the deadly domain for the evil Ice Lord, Nekron. The only survivor is a young warrior, Larn, who vows to avenge this act of destruction. The evil continues, however, as Nekron’s palace of ice heads straight towards Fire Keep, the great fortress ruled by the good King Jarol. When Jarol’s beautiful daughter, Teegra, who has a real set of badonkers, packin some dobonhonkeros, massive dohoonkabhankoloos, big ol' tonhongerekoogers is abducted by Nekron’s sub-human ape-like creatures, Larn begins a daring search for her and her bonkhonagahoogs, I mean just humongous hungolomghononoloughongous. What results is a tense battle between good and evil, surrounded by the mystical elements of the ancient past.

Next up is Fritz the Cat. A swinging, hypocritical college student cat fucks and smokes his way through a satirical vision of the 1960s.
