What they like about this site:
I'll be honest, the nudity is a part of it. It IS in the name of the blog, after all. But I also appreciate the site as a resource of finding interesting movies that I otherwise wouldn't have heard about. I find that every time I visit, I add a new movie to my 'to watch' list. Continue reading →

Wishing you all a very happy 2018!
Michel Franco is among the leading lights of Mexican cinema working today. Franco follows up on his impressive 2015 drama ‘Chronic’ with an equally devious and shocking family drama “Las hijas de Abril” (Eng. … Continue reading
