MOVIE DIARY 2018 is back with another installment of the hottest blog series of the summer: WILD THINGS MONTH! This week we've got Aubrey Bellamy on board with a look at her very first viewing of  Wild Things (1998), and me on four movies, only one of which was good. (Full disclosure: the one that's good is a Wong Kar-Wai movie so the other three movies are completely outclassed. It wasn't a fair fight.)

Oh man I have been waiting for this! MOVIE DIARY 2018 is back once again, but I want to do a little something special for August. I missed the actual 20th anniversary of Wild Things (1998) back in March, so I've decided that this August will be WILD THINGS MONTH on MOVIE DIARY 2018! I've already written about Wild Things here, so in the coming weeks former MOVIE DIARY 2018 guests will be coming through to write about the official movie of MOVIE DIARY 2018, Wild Things! It's going to be fun, I swear! First up is frequent MOVIE DIARY 2018 special guest Tessa Strain!

Oh boy we've got a good MOVIE DIARY 2018 for you this week! Big time cartoonist Dustin Harbin is here to talk about a movie I've never heard of, but now really want to track down. Dustin's DIARY COMICS are among my favorites, he's funny and insightful and unafraid to confront himself, all things I Iove to see in art and storytelling, and I'd wager you'd love that too. Check him out on Twitter and Instagram for maximum Dustin Harbin content!

MOVIE DIARY 2018: DON'T YOU KNOW YOU ARE THE SCUM OF SOCIETY?

Camp Nowhere (1994) by special guest Caroline Moss
The Great Muppet Caper (1981)
Rumble In The Bronx (1995)

It's a double post week for MOVIE DIARY 2018, and I'm kicking things off with Caroline Moss, which is huge for me because I've been a big fan of her work for a while! Plus, Caroline's writing about an old favorite of mine, a movie that I mostly remember from watching at an after school program when I'd have to wait for my dad to pick me up. 
I should have your second dose of MOVIE DIARY 2018 up on Friday so look out for that!
