Things I Learned Watching Repulsion

• Being a virgin makes you go batshit insane.
• If you see someone carrying loose meat around in their purse, alert the authorities. They’re probably batshit insane.
• A candlestick can double as both a murder weapon AND a home improvement tool for the batshit insane. Sometimes within minutes of each other.
• Keeping a full tub of water at all times can aid with dead body disposal. If you’re batshit insane.
• It would be wise to assess the batshit insaneness of your hot young tenant before you try to come on to her.
• If grasping hands start emerging from your hallway walls, it might be prudent to get out of the house for a while. You’re potentially going batshit insane.
• Batshit insane or not, Catherine Deneuve is frakking gorgeous.

And also, it’s a really good movie - part New Wave, part psychosexual thriller, full of great high-contrast black and white cinematography and Catherine Deneuve looking gorgeous. And being batshit insane.
