One of the most intriguing — and most discussed — films at this year’s Sundance Film Festival is a curious documentary called The Nightmare, which recounts and restages the experiences of various people who suffer from extreme forms of sleep paralysis. The subject is fascinating enough on its own, but The Nightmare was directed by Rodney Ascher, who made a splash at the 2012 festival with Room 237, his experimental documentary about different, out-there interpretations of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. As might be expected, The Nightmare, not unlike the previous film, is by turns playful, probing, and terrifying. (via)

here's a look at that paula pell movie we've all been waiting for since the day we were born.
In a script penned by SNL writer Paula Pell, Jane and Maura are visiting their hometown and learn that their parents are selling their childhood home. The sisters decide to throw one epic house party before their parents move out.
Due out this coming December, Sisters will be the first Fey-Poehler movie collaboration since 2008's Baby Mama. The hilarious stars previously worked together on 2004's Mean Girls. (via)

louis ck cancels MSG show in very funny fashion.
Dear friend,
Hi. It's Louis CK here to make sure everyone knows that my show show tomorrow at Madison Square Garden has been canceled. All ticket holders will automatically get a refund. I am really sorry about this and I am surprised to learn as I write this that there is only one L in the word canceled. I'll have to take my phone's word for it. But it doesn't look right to me.
In any case, there seems to be a massive storm approaching New York City. They are calling this storm "historic" which.... Well I didn't know you could call a thing historic if it hasn't happened yet. But I'm not one to defy future historic events. And I have to be respectful of the responsibility I have to the 15,000 people who are holding tickets to the show and could be stranded somewhere historically trying to get to or from my show. I think it's clearly better that I alter history in the name of safety and cancel. Besides, if you've ever tried to get your deposit back when you rent a banquet hall for a wedding that gets snowed out, you don't want to even know what the deposit is on Madison Square Jesus Christing Garden is.
So. No show. I will be on Letterman tonight, though. So you can yell boo right at my stupid and very handsome face on your tv screen or on your paper towel or your watch or whatever you view Letterman on.
Also I will be contacting you very soon about my new standup special which will be historically available only on my website louisck.net very soon.
I really want to thank everyone who came to the shows at MSG. It was an incredible experience. The audiences were great. And the crew at MSG is classy and professional.
Okay. That's it. I have to do some laundry now.
Take care of yourself and don't be a jerk to people.
Louis CK.

Anthropomorphic Mouse, recently held above an American cabaret in what used to be the Bank of New York in London, is not a taxidermy class in the strictest sense: It is more like a cross between taxidermy and arts and crafts for beginners, using mice. The aim is to create scenes that look as if they are out of Beatrix Potter’s “Peter Rabbit” books, in which small animals wear clothes and hats and enjoy picnics, tea parties and lives of their own.

broad city long read
“Should I fist the tree first, you think, Ab?” Glazer asked. “Or should I give it a rim job? What’s funnier?”
“Definitely fisting!” Jacobson hollered back. “The tree may say no but its heart says yes!”
Glazer went to work. She is a brilliant physical comedian — both women are — and gyrated her compact frame around the tree, oozing over its limbs, French-kissing its bark, straddling it, slapping it, twerking on it, poking it in various orifices. (Jacobson chimed in from the sidelines, “We are always coming up with new holes!”) A crew of about 25 people looked on, but Glazer showed no signs of embarrassment — she only requested inspiration in the form of slow jams — “Give me some dirty music, baby, lemme get my griiiind on!” — and suggested to the director, John Lee, that perhaps she should “try some shots with reverse cowgirl, like my ass right up to the camera. It should feel grotesque, right? We need dat bounce!” She tried different rhythms and angles, holding back laughter while slapping the trunk of the tree with loud thwacks.
Meanwhile, Jacobson was giggling so hard she had to crouch on the ground. “This is so fucking funny,” she said. “This is so fucking funny.” Then, turning to me, she put on a serious face: “She’s not doing this to fall in love with the tree,” she said. “She is doing it to find … answers.” Then, after a pause: “I just hope the tree is over 18.” (via)

A new poll by Quinnipiac University suggests that the city's voters have seen through the police union's tactics, and that its temper tantrum will cost it political support.
Consider the following findings:
"Police union leader Patrick Lynch's comments that the mayor's office had blood on its hands are 'too extreme,' voters say 77 - 17 percent, the independent Quinnipiac University Poll finds. There is no party, gender, racial, borough or age group which finds the comments 'appropriate.'""Voters say 47 to 37 percent that Mayor de Blasio's statements and actions during his 2013 campaign and during his first year in office show he does support police."
"The recent slowdown in police activity is more of a protest, 56 percent of voters say, while 27 percent say it is because police officers fear for their safety."
"Voters say 57 to 34 percent that officers should be disciplined if they deliberately are making fewer arrests or writing fewer tickets. Black, white and Hispanic voters all agree."
" Voters give Patrolmen's Benevolent Assn. President Patrick Lynch a negative 18 to 39 percent favorability rating and say 43 to 27 percent that he is a mostly negative force in the city."
50 percent of voters approve and 41 percent disapprove of the way Mayor de Blasio is handling crime.
Just 41 percent approach and 52 percent disapprove of the way de Blasio is handling relations between police and the community (a number that presumably includes people who think he is too pro-police and too anti-police.)
56 percent approve of the way the NYPD is doing its job. (via)

Netflix's Wet Hot American Summer series is turning into quite the celeb-packed event. Deadline reports that a slew of guest-starring and recurring characters will pop up in the form of Lake Bell, Josh Charles (as a rival camper), Rob Huebel (a rival professor), Jayma Mays, Randall Park (a librarian in love with Shannon), Paul Scheer (a journalist), Richard Schiff, John Slattery, and Michaela Watkins (a brash New Yorker). The new recruits join the already-large amount of original cast members for the eight-episode series, to be directed by David Wain and written by Wain and Michael Showalter. While the 2001 movie was set on the last day of a fake Jewish summer camp, the Netflix installments reportedly take place on the first day of camp. No other details about the series are available, but rest assured, summer is coming. (via)

ever heard of a disco clam?
you won't believe the stuff that goes on in this article:
In an experiment, Dougherty put a mantis shrimp in the same tank as a disco clam and monitored the animals’ activity. But as she quickly learned, the bivalve was not to be bullied. Once attacked by the shrimp, the clam spewed acidic mucus at the crustacean, disarming the shrimp and sending it into a catatonic state. Upon further investigation, Dougherty and her team found that the clam’s fleshy lips were laced with sulfuric acid, a substance commonly found in car batteries and drain decloggers. (via)

And she has a final warning for New Yorkers who live alone with cats: The urban legend is true. “Your faithful golden retriever might sit next to your dead body for days, starving, but the tabby won’t,” she writes. “Your pet cat will eat you right away, with no qualms at all. I’ve seen the result.”
