For my wife's birthday I bought her a beautiful fridge freezer. I know it isn't much, but you should have seen her face light up when she opened it.*
In the real world, the humble fridge is a purely functional home appliance which transfers its internal heat to its external environment; cooling its interior in order to lower the reproduction rate of bacteria thereby maintaining the optimal temperature range for preservation of perishable food. In Hollywood however, a refrigerator may be a portal to hell, a gateway to another dimension, a fighters training camp or even a temporary nuclear bomb shelter. Thankfully we're (mostly) talking movies here at Bad Dads so we're sparing you any discussion we might have had about this utilitarian white good in favour of discussing the Top 5 Movie Fridges.
Our main feature tells a story as old as time itself, that of a talented and penniless surgical student, who when applying for a job in a strip club instead finds herself drawn into the fascinating and unusual world of extreme body modification before enacting a terrible revenge on the man who wronged her. Yes we've heard it all before but the Canadian twins Jen and Sylvia Soska (a.k.a. The Twisted Twins) bring a much needed feminine voice to the horror genre with their 2012 crime-revenge-thriller American Mary.
Far less wholesome is this weeks kids show, Blue Peter. From defecating pachyderms, subtle Marxist political messaging and cocaine-fuelled presenters through to more virtuous subjects such as viewer submitted art work and the besting of challenges thrust upon the eager presenters, this hotbed of depravity and staple of British children's television for more than 60 years has content that is wide ranging.
