5 Off My Head: Off With Her Heart

.

The poster for Darren Aronofsky's next film mother! made a big sticky wet splash this weekend and with good cause - that's an image that grabs you by the... well, if I say "heart" am I already getting too redundant for my own good? Anyway we still don't know much about the film except it's some sort of thriller about a couple tormented by unwelcome guests (and I still haven't figured out who of the cast is the "couple" and who plays the "guests" but the film stars Jennifer Lawrence, Domhnall Gleeson, Javier Bardem and Michelle Pfeiffer) - it's not out until October, so we'ves till got some time.

"I was using that."

But in a weird coincidence last night's episode of American Gods, besides featuring some astonishingly hot gay sex, also featured a heart being torn out of a woman's chest! Granted this was part of an afterlife trial, but if Heart-Ripping is in vogue this minute I guess it's as good a time as any to make a fun list...
