Four Reviews—Kong: Skull Island, Sausage Party, Wonder Woman, Shin Godzilla

KONG: SKULL ISLAND

Legendary’s Monsterverse series gets its second installment, following Gareth Edwards’ somber and successful resurrection of GODZILLA (2014). Director Jordan Vogt-Roberts blends sensibilities from the original KING KONG (1933) with APOCALYPSE NOW and some sly nods to the Conrad novel HEART OF DARKNESS that inspired that indelible war film to skillfully craft an action-packed tour of Kong’s homeland. Here, in a hidden island surrounded by perpetual storms which serves as a graveyard of lost ships, serene, mute indigenous people revere the massive ape as a protector deity. And rightly so, as this adolescent fellow primate lost his parents to the ravening reptilian Skull Crawlers who emerge from the underground world—likely be a plot point for future films in this series.

MONARCH (the secretive government research agency) scientists and military men invade on helicopters and drop bombs to perform seismic surveys, but this rouses Kong to swat them from the sky and provokes the arrival of the devils from below. Not the typical “beauty and the beast” tale told in the best two prior Kong films—the Cooper original and the Jackson 2005 loving homage to it—this one brings mankind up against creatures whose god-like size and strength question the dominion of our species of this planet, which in the Monsterverse mythology has long been the territory of ancient Daijkaiju.

In an homage to Boorman’s HELL IN THE PACIFIC, the film begins in 1944 with an American and a Japanese pilot crashing on the island. They continue their aerial battle hand to hand, but are halted by the arrival of Kong, who is less a giant gorilla and more an evolutionary step between gorilla and human. John C. Reilly as Lieutenant Hank Marlow steals the film as the aged pilot who has survived almost three decades on that dangerous ground and thus plays a pivotal role in making certain some of the Monarch group can reach the rendezvous point to be rescued. The redoubtable Samuel L. Jackson as Lieutenant Colonel Preston Packard puts on his Ahab boots to avenge his fellow soldiers who befell Kong’s wrath. You can guess how that plays out.

As you would want, there are many fascinating oversized beasts and the humans fare ill in some of their confrontations with them. There are dramatic encounters between Kong and the humans as well as his subterranean enemies and the film concludes with a sweet resolution for Hank, and, post credits, some revelations by the MONARCH survivors revealing the creature cast of the currently filming GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS directed by Michael Dougherty, due in 2019. Kong will clash with Godzilla in 2020 under the enthusiastic direction of Adam Wingard. I await both with much anticipation!

SAUSAGE PARTY

I was sent this animated film as a gift by a friend who said not a word as to why it had been selected for me. He has an earthy sense of humor and is a talented artist as well as keen observer of the human animal, so I was prepared for something that might embody those aspects to some degree. I was not disappointed! Seth Rogen and his cohorts have crafted a devastating critique of the human foolishness of believing that some form of supernatural entities have their well-being as a primary concern. The various anthropomorphic foodstuffs in the supermarket have faith that the humans who purchase them will be bringing them somewhere better, a “Great Beyond” transcending their current existence on the shelves. But of course in time they learn the truth that being eaten awaits them and that their “gods” are but shabby, shallow, self-absorbed consumers.

Humor is broadly derived from the various ethnic food products conjuring outrageous stereotypes, and no holds are barred in that department—harking back to how such products were once advertised, though without the foul language and sexual behavior included here, making for an R rating. Most amusing for me is the Woody Allen-esque bisexual bagel voiced with manic exuberance by Edward Norton. For secularists not infected by the virus of political correctness, SAUSAGE PARTY is a ribald, raunchy hilarious feast. SJW pantywaists afraid of being triggered might want to stay away, as they’ll not find a safe space here.

WONDER WOMAN

The origin tale of Diana Prince, daughter of Zeus, is told with the proper amount of spectacle, humor, and gravity by Patty Jenkins and the eponymous character portayed with elegance and strength by Gal Gadot. Set during World War I, the visuals of the normal humans’ struggle are depicted in sepia tones shot through with fire, while Diana’s sheltered Themyscira is a lush, colorful island retreat with sophisticated art and architecture. There seemed to me a bit of a callback to Lucy Lawless’ Xena, Warrior Princess in the garb and martial techniques employed by the women of this hidden land.

What struck me as wonderfully Satanic is the philosophical outcome of this journey. Diana leaves her island as an idealist, holding love as a primary value and she has a rather simplistic view of her mission. In the course of her conflict with her brother Ares, who proclaims he is not the god of war, but of truth, he reveals to her the venality and mindless hatred of humanity in the global conflict he has cultivated. Diana witnesses horrors that are not simply conjured by Ares, but which are part of human nature. Yet the love she shares with Captain Steve Trevor—a charming Chris Pine—and his ultimate heroic sacrifice show her a broader range of human capabilities. Before dispatching Ares, as her father intended, Diana declares her embrace of humanity now with a full grasp of its spectrum of faults and glories—a third side perspective that we Satanists have proclaimed since Anton LaVey founded our philosophy in 1966. This is certainly one of the better DC films and should entertain those who enjoy these comic-derived larger-than-life beings as an embodiment of our propensity for embracing inspirational heroic mythology.

SHIN GOJIRA (SHIN GODZILLA / GODZILLA RESURGENCE)

While Edwards’ GODZILLA was in production, Toho hedged their bets by developing a live action GOJIRA film under the guidance of Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi, both fans and skilled contributors to Japanese fantastic cinema. Legendary had contracted to do three Godzilla films, but apparently because they delayed the sequel to the 2014 film, ostensibly waiting for Edwards to complete ROGUE ONE, Toho completed and released their live-action film in 2016, SHIN GOJIRA. Much like Kaneko’s wonderful one-off 2001 film, GODZILLA, MOTHRA, KING GHIDORAH: DAIKAJI SOKOUGEKI, this is an original take on Gojira that has no links to the other films Toho produced in its three prior series.

Anno wrote and directed and he’s known for the high weirdness of NEON GENESIS EVANGELION, so with Higuchi handling the SPFX (he did masterful work for Kaneko’s 90s GAMERA trilogy) this duo has wrought a political satire depicting governmental hesitancy to deal with the threat of a constantly evolving giant monster rising from the sea to lay waste to Japan. For the Japanese who have in recent memory dealt with tidal waves, earthquakes and the Fukushima disaster, they fully grasp this mockery of their own government. 

Rather than being some form of prehistoric monster roused by H bomb detonations, this monstrosity is a new life form evolving from a deep sea creature, possibly kin to a frill shark, that consumed nuclear waste dumped on the ocean bottom by the American government. Shin Godzilla—the name loosely implies deity much as the American term for Gojira includes the word God—is first witnessed as a gigantic tail lashing about in Tokyo bay (the first form). When it comes inland via waterways as a slithering, rubbery google-eyed intruder, leaking red fluid from its gill slits (Kamata-kun), the Prime Minister and his cabinet and advisors are continually paralyzed through fear of committing errors that will end their political careers, taking endless, fruitless meetings in numerous governmental chambers. It takes the intervention of Deputy Chief Cabinet Secretary Rando Yaguchi, a maverick who wants to get things done, to assemble a crew of outsiders and misfits who seek to understand and find a way to defeat this threat arising from mutated nature.

Kamata-kun seizes-up at one point, falling to the ground, but rouses to shift itsself into a red-hued, upright standing 50 meter beast (Shinagawa-kun) whose roar is the same as that of the original Gojira, and he’s accompanied by Ifukube’s score for that 1954 film. With glowing red patches surrounding his dorsal fins indicating some sort of overheating, Shinagawa-kun smashes through buildings and dives back into the bay. The hovering military ‘copters had yet to attack, hindered by the Prime Minister’s fear of harming civilians. Yaguchi’s team gathers and analyzes info, aided by a Japanese American beauty who shares secret data from the US authorities whom she represents. And then the full-sized bizarre golem Shin Gojira arises and begins a rampage.

As is traditional, the Japanese military, aided by American stealth bombers, prove ineffectual against this particularly hideous incarnation of Gojira. With a profusion of snuggle-teeth, seemingly sightless eyes, stunted forearms and an insanely long tail, Anno’s vision of a nightmare monster with bizarre powers is well-realized by Higuchi and his team. For the first time Toho went with CGI (aided by some motion capture) to render the majority of the effects and they are primarily very effective. This Gojira is magma-black with glowing red patches from within, much like the Burning Godzilla of 1995. But his wildly overpowered breath weapon, which goes from firestorm to purple laser beam, accompanied by similar bursts from his dorsal plates and mangled tail end are unique to this rendition. The film uses classic Ifukube score excerpts and evocative new music by Shiro Sagisu and even employs sound effects from Toho’s stock library, most dating to the original Showa series of Gojira films (1954-1975).

Under the threat of the US deploying nuclear weapons, Yaguchi rallies his team and they find a means to immobilize Gojira, aided by waves of US drones meant to distract it while attacks by explosive-laden train cars and finally tanker trucks filled with freezing chemicals ultimately cause Gojira to become a colossal statue as part of the Tokyo skyline. The last shot shows us that Gojira was willing forth a fifth form, as humanoid Godzillian beings had begun to emerge from the tip of its tail. This film was immensely successful both critically and financially in Japan, though a possible sequel cannot be released until after Legendary’s films emerge. However, Toho is currently producing an animated sci-fi trilogy set in the far future, GODZILLA: MONSTER PLANET, and the first of these will screen for US audiences on Netflix at the end of 2017, with the next two installments to be released in 2018. There’s a coming wealth of Godzilla to enjoy!

We are in a golden age of giant monsters which I’m celebrating in the third installment of the book and exhibition series I curate for HOWL gallery titled THE DEVILS REIGN: DAIKAIJU, to be released towards the end of this year.

Regarding Satanic After-School Clubs (By Magus Peter H. Gilmore)

Since the Church of Satan only allows legal adults as members, and since we are against all forms of possible proselytizing, we do not sponsor “clubs” in schools.

We encourage intelligent young people who have an interest to study our literature, and they may ask questions of us directly should they not understand any of our principles. We have many responsive spokespersons to handle such queries. In general, our written materials are quite straightforward and without the need for interpretation found in the texts of most religions.

Additionally, we do not support forms of activism which require Satanists to behave like members of other religions who do try to force their ideas on young people. We are strict secularists and individualists and oppose having religion foisted on students via peer pressure or other coercive means.

Stan Lee’s influence creating and facilitating new mythologies that inspire our society is incalculable.

Getting My Kicks in Year 66!

Today I reach my double-six birth anniversary—the 24th of May in common era year 2024—and I mark several significant personal milestones in this current calendar year. As I’d mentioned in my Walpurgisnacht message, two close friends of many decades, both Church of Satan Magisters, finally had to leave the party of life. And, before their passing, another dear friend of mine, the great…

Compiling Rites of the Black Mass, Lex Talionis, & Hail Satanic Victory, into the blood & gore scenes in this video, it really lives up to its name. And, speaking on a variety of subjects, from the dim shadows that no amount of light could illuminate, is Vincent Crowley - vocalist of ACHERON. Interview segments serve as introductions to each of the fourteen songs, morbidly grotesque menageries of aesthetic terror. All songs accompanied by scenes of grisly murder, perversity, horror film clips, & occultic practices. If one is a horror-movie fanatic, there will be many scenes which are delightfully recognizable. Also included, are the images of such Satanic notables as Magus LaVey, Karla LaVey, Crowley, & others. The combination of the brain-blending depictions of carnage, serial killers, holocaust atrocities, mutilage, debauchery, & Satanic rites, played in conjunction with Acheron's fierce & brutal musick, makes for very powerful & entertaining viewing every time. It's perfect for parties. Just to see the awestruck & fascinated looks on your friends' & acquaintances' faces, is worth the small price, which then takes a still larger toll on their minds... There IS a warning at the beginning of the video, for the viewer that the video WILL warp the mind. That is for you to distinguish. From beginning to "end", as you will see, Lust, Sin, Chaos, & Blasphemy is magnificently sick & twisted, & will inevitably arouse much dramatic reaction in all who have the fortune {or misfortune} to see this abomination. II The Gates of Hell have reopened for a second onslaught of Abysmal visions into the Darkside of Life... & Death.... For those of you desiring more of the visual abominations Acheron has provided in the past, here you go, another installment of horror, defilement, sexual gratification, blasphemy, & sacrilege! Likened The Serpent bestowing the gift of Knowledge unto "Eve", then "Adam", to break them free of their ignorance & subjection under the tyrant Jehovah, these videos are a veritable "forbidden fruit" just waiting for you to pluck it off the Tree. Ponder what Aleister Crowley said - "I have exposed Myself to every manner of vice & horror..." Is this not the essence of omniscience? To fill the mind with wisdom, knowledge, & experience? Verily, I say it is so. It is the nature of the Dark God. The visuals pervading during Mgr. Gilmore's recitations of Neitchsze's "Antichrist" are remarkable in their digital glory.

Plot bunny + Dylan O’Brien in Gilmore Girls, Lane or Jess ship

Magus Medina • Fine

Magnus Medina’s life in Connecticut was fine.He had his baseball team, a decent enough social life and reputation despite being the son of the English teacher & not being one of the richer kids at Chilton, and while (infuriatingly - thanks, Paris) his grades weren’t the highest, they where good enough to appease Max, who he had a good relationship.

Having to pack up his life into a suitcase every couple weeks to go see his mom in New York was not fine. Former Cheerleader with aspiring Broadway dreams who peaked in high school and was drunk more often then she was sober, who’s best friend was equally a disaster and just as neglectful of her own son. But at least he and Jess got along well enough, and the casual hookups in his hotel room were a reprieve from their mothers.

Max starting a relationship with Rory Gilmore’s mother was not fine, Lorelei Gilmore leaving his father the weekend of their wedding was definitely not fine, but because of the Gilmore’s he was introduced to the world of Stars Hallow outside of Chilton’s games against the local high school’s baseball team, his recently acquired job at the local bookstore was going well, and then comes the day Jess Mariano walked in.

[mens-satanas]

The purpose of this blog is to examine and discuss the concepts and ideas that exist in Satanism – both in religious as well as a philosophical contexts. Satanism has been appropriated for various reasons for as long as the concept has existed – most regularly in a derogatory manner as a means of classifying the social “other”. To me and many others, the light of the Black Flame has enabled us to grow beyond what had previously been circumscribed for us, making it possible to achieve our potential.

 At this point it would be pertinent to note, as Magus Peter H. Gilmore does in the Satanic Scriptures, that “there is no ‘Satanic Community’ nor should one ever exist” (2016: 170). This is because “of a membership comprised of radical individualists” (p. 171). The Magus goes on to explain that “their reason for membership is to affirm their allegiance to the organization” (ibid). So when I use plural first-person pronouns, understand them in this context: we are Satanists because we ascribe to certain tenets that help us make sense of, utilise and enjoy the world around us. However, that is most regularly where the commonality ends. Most of us never even become members of the Church.

 This blog in no way attempts to present a unified Satanic perspective because no such thing exists beyond the scope of the Satanic Bible and Satanic Rituals written by Magus LaVey. Magus Gilmore has expanded upon the ideas and several members of the Church of Satan Hierarchy have expounded their own interpretations and applications. However, the essential elements of the religion and its philosophical framework rest in Magus LaVey’s first two publications. The precepts of our religion allow for individualised interpretations and applications as myriad as the stars scattered across the sky of the darkest night. Any attempt to harness all of that potential into one revelatory beam of insight would be fundamentally unsatanic.

 I welcome those who feel the urge to step into the void with me and look forward to discussing matters pertaining to The Feared Religion.
