[jalapeño ranch]

There's a couple hundred ratings on Letterboxd but I'm guessing they're from film festivals.

You forgot the cameo?

Look mate, are you going to be a Ferrara completest or not? I can't be fucking with this thread if you're only going to dip your toe in the water.

[jalapeño ranch]

Look buddy I’ve seen them Longlegs okay buddy? Don’t give me no guff buddy!

[the_village]

Whoa whoa
Hey
Easy easy
I'm just trying to talk Ferrara here

[jalapeño ranch]

I feel like I just saw him in a cameo of a recent movie but I’m blanking on what it was. Can’t remember if he was a character or himself.

[the_village]

Was it Daddy Longlegs?

[jalapeño ranch]

No, because Daddy Longlegs was made 14 years ago.

[Hal Jordan]

Ms 45 is great

[Eyeball Kid]

Where's 9 Lives of a Wet Pussy?

[jalapeño ranch]

Oh it is in the updated ranking, my friend.

[Eyeball Kid]

Spoiler (I guess?) for 9 Lives of a Wet Pussy: Ferrara has claimed he really did his own stunts in the movie, but I am skeptical based on what's seen in his one scene before the camera. His dinger and his face are never in the same shot!Toggle Spoiler
