Welcome to Pussy Pop Culture!

Joey and I discuss the commentary and efficacy of Armando Iannucci's The Death of Stalin and Ike Barinholtz's The Oath. Anti-communist portrayals, Trump, political commentary in film, dark humor, and more. Cheers, goobs! #thedeathofstalin #theoath #hulu #Trump #politics #film #review #streaming #comedy #darkcomedy #TiffanyHaddish #SteveBuscemi #moviereview

American Horror Story, wtf? I fully expected AHS: 1984 to be as glorious as the 80s theme it promised, but I must say I was pretty disappointed. The 80s aesthetic, mood, and music were on point, but the storyline was incredibly anti-climactic, rushed, and rather superficial compared to earlier seasons of the show. At least AHS: Apocalypse prepared us for the impending disappointment with its ridiculously lackluster ending. Many AHS fans agree the show has been going downhill

1) Joey's Pick: The Terror (season 1) In an effort to better relate to sociopaths, and because I’m tired of Liz calling me a wuss, I decided to take a more keen interest in the horror genre. Being the unimaginative dork that I am, I perused my many streaming services for a recommendation that seemed like an ideal introduction. While browsing Hulu, I found it. The Terror. “Brilliant,” I said. There is no way that isn’t scary. The title alone sounds like it could easily be lite

Thanks to a brilliant suggestion from one of the writers here at Pussy Pop Culture, the wildly talented Joey Maqueda, we have decided to start a biweekly tradition of posting an article where all three staff writers quickly detail what entertainment texts have captured their attention and why. We also want to encourage you all to let us know what entertainment texts have been on your radar; so, please join our community and comment! We are eager to see what y'all have been co

I don’t know about you, but I’m absolutely sick of people making me feel bad for the shows and films that I love. I must admit, I’ve been one of those people that scoffs at others’ entertainment choices; just recently I was getting on my partner for liking Richard LaGravenese’s P.S. I Love You (2007). This is not okay, and I’m working on it, I promise. Thus, as part of my selfish attempt to make amends to those I have wronged, I’m going to explain the origin of the bullshit c

Why are so many people weary of subtitles? Put a few lines of text on the bottom of the screen and people act like they're about to take on a second job. Well, you better get used to it; the U.S isn't the only country churning out top quality entertainment, and today's streaming services are making massive efforts to centralize movies and TV shows produced around the world. With this, the ability to expand our knowledge and understanding of different cultures has never been m

We've all had the same... we'll call it "fantasy." An old newspaper tumbles across an empty street. Rusted-out cars with skeletons at the wheel. Someone smeared feces all over the local ambulance chaser's billboard. Apocalyptic scenarios are almost comically unlikely, but in our own weird way, we all make preparations. Enough food and water for at least a few days, a first aid kit, a flashlight, and of course, guns. You think about where you'd go first, and who you'd take wit
