This is the most disjointed film I've seen in a long time. ![]() But that's not worth much even the source material keeps little continuity between the incarnations of Tomie. The threads that connect the characters are painfully thin, and this film has easily the worst Tomie in the series (at least until I see "Tomie: Beginning.") There are some very good scenes and concepts here, and a few exciting parts, and for what it's worth, the film does try to at least tie all the "Tomie" films together. Most of the film's ideas are scattershot, thrown to the winds. To summarize the plot of "Tomie: Revenge" is an impossible undertaking simply because there really isn't one. The "how could they screw this up?" feeling. If you have no idea what "Tomie" even is, well, how the heck would you get here anyhow? Now that it's available in all its English subtitled glory, I've had the opportunity to view "Tomie: Revenge" and to experience the kind of disappointment that's all too familiar to "Tomie" fans. If you're a "Tomie" fan you'll find something to like here. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() She ends up deploying to space and another planet and working as an orc translator.

The opening short story of A Phoenix First Must Burn certainly sets the tone for all the stories to come, I think. When Life Hands You A Lemon Fruitbomb by Amerie follows what happens when earth is invaded by aliens that the main character Mae calls orcs. When Life Hands You A Lemon Fruitbomb by Amerie I have literally no ability to be objective – this post is absolutely subjective. Also - I do want to say that I read these stories from the perspective of a white person, so please take my opinions with a grain of salt. That’s amazing and there needs to be more like this out there. I also am so glad this exists for Black teen girls to see themselves starring in every single story. In fact, I walked away with a desire to read more from specific authors in this anthology and I think that’s really wonderful. Not a single story in this anthology was a dud. There are all kinds of speculative fiction genres explored. Maybe because there’s a feeling of accomplishment when reading one or two short stories per day. A Phoenix First Must Burn edited by Patrice Caldwell is a spectacular anthology that’s essentially a celebration of Black Girl Magic. I don’t know what it is about this pandemic, but I am really ripping through short story anthologies. ![]() |
