Last Seen 70s/80s Movie

[The_Return]

Caught the last half hour or so of American Psycho on TV last night. Incredible ending.

This is correct.

For me, it was Hellraiser: Inferno. Surprisingly enough, this one was actually pretty decent. A radical departure from the earlier films in the series, but I was pleased. I might actually consider checking out some of the later sequels. Overall: 6.5/10

I finished watching all the Hellraisers and I wouldn't recommend them,but then again I am curious as to what you think so I would say go ahead and rent them.It's a conundrum...


I just finished watching The Dreamers-3/10,I think I understand where this director's vision was wanting to go,but for some reason he got stoned in the middle of filming and said"awww, fuck it".

And Vlad-0/10-this is a piece of crap,the spammers that spewed forth this movie need to come back here so I can have a word with THEM.

[IDrinkYourBlood]

Junebug and A History of Violence. both 3/5 movies.

[scouse mac]

Star Wars III: better than I expected and far outshone the previous two.

Identity: I like this film but then again any film with John Cusack and Ray Liotta cant be bad.

Walk The Line

I was gonna wait to see it with my grammy, but I couldn't...but I'm more than happy to see it again. It was great, just about everyone in the theater was stomping and clapping along...pretty damn cool movie, if you're into Johnny Cash that is.

Ehhh, that movie had okay parts, but did it ever get dumb in the end. I mean, if all he did was put that chip in her brain to revive her, how did she manage to become a robot under her skin? ;)

Yeh I was wondering that myself, I was thinkin' it was a dream sequence like the one with Kirsty Swanson stabin' her father. I liked how a thrown basketball managed to shatter Anne Ramsey's head too...... I loved that film total madness :cool:

Ehhh, I dunno.... if it was thrown hard enough, it wouldn't "splatter", but it sure as hell could crush the skull enough to toss chunks of blood, bone and brain matter. :D Think of what a tornado does to something flimsy like a piece of hay in a telephone pole. They should've done Ramsey's head "Bad Taste" style, with the lower jaw still attatched and spewin blood everywhere. :D

I went to the website Pajiba and from the reviews ,have decided to wait for video release.
Affairs aren't a very appealing thing to watch on the screen,and in this movie Clive Owen(whom I think is a great actor) is turned into the hero-which is kinda gross.(Cheater=hero? uhh-no)
Although I do think 'Unfaithful' was a very good movie,one of the exceptions.

Well, that's good enough for me, I guess I'll wait too. I like Clive Owen and I'm interested to see if Jennifer Aniston makes a good transfer cause I thought she was really good on Friends. Thanks sh.

She's been in other movies but since Friends is over she's(trying at least) only doing movies that's why I said transfer. I figure she'll really be trying for a great preformance. About the big fight you've got planned, before you take a swing, sh means sweetheart. It's used other places I frequent on the net, I just thought it was a normal internet thing like ''lol''.

It may be,but I don't pay attention to anything anymore. :D

[noctuary]

Unfortunately, I watched Hellraiser: Deader today. I was warned... but just didn't listen. So about the movie... well, I fell asleep while watching it. Kari Wuhrer was in it, so of course she got naked... Some other stuff happened, I think... This movie was very illogical. For example, why did Kari bribe the building super guy with American money, when she was from England? How the hell could that one guy turn a subway car into some decadent sex club? And most importantly, why in god's name did I feel the need to spend three bucks renting this? Final score: 3/10 (The score was okay, I guess.)

Anyway, my ill-conceived "watch every Hellraiser movie" scheme has come to a bitter end.

Cannibal Ferox for the firs time. it was alright. (Lacked a badass revengful dude)

Batman Begins (again)

I already wrote up a little recap in here somewhere so I'll keep this one brief. I enjoyed this Batman film immensly. Christian Bale did a great job and the direction theat Christopher Nolan took to set up the back story of Bruce Wayne's parents, his fixation with bats, and his training was all very well done. Scarecrow has always been a relatively weak villain in my opinion, but I think they pulled the character off better than I would have expected. It was a bit disappointing that best Batman villain, The Joker, didn't make it into this film, but if you've seen it, you know he'll be in the next one so that's okay I guess. My only real objection to this movie is that they shoulda have gotten slightly older actors for the parts played by Katie Holmes (Who's going to buy a girl in her mid-20s as the assistant DA in a city that supposed to be the size of New York? Come on!) and the guy that played Scarecrow (Again, who's going to believe that a guy in his mid-20s is going to be the head doctor at an insane asylum in a city as big as Gotham? It's just not believable at all.) Also, Katie Holmes isn' a very good actress... "I'm a Gotham City district attorney. Let me pass." :rolleyes: Ugh! That line couldn't have sounded more scrpited if she was reading it off a cue card!

Other than those few miscastings though, I thought it was an excellent film.

I guess you've got a point with Crane but Holmes grew up with Wayne and started dating him so they couldn't make her that old.

Who ever thought a movie that revolves around a meddlesome mother-in-law could turn out this way. Its story intertwined with japanese folklore. Its atmosphere is enhanced by the scenery of grass flowing in an incessant wind. All beautifully captured in stark black and white.

Oh yeah, they were childhood friends, I forgot. Well, then they should have at least gotten someone that looked the same age as Bale... Say 30 instead of 23 maybe... I don't know, her presence and her job title was a nagging annoyance the entire film. A small one, but an annoyance nonetheless.

One thing they could've done is make her an intern. Everybody was just in their begining stages(Wayne was just becoming Batman, Gordon was still only a sgt. ect.) so I think it would've went well. Obviously an intern can't try a case but there's nothing that says they can't snoop around and help get the case started which is what she did.

Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III

Wow! It must have been 6 or 7 years sinced I watched this last and it was quite a bit better than I remembered it. The story was pretty cool. I liked how it all took place in the woods this time around and also how the focus was on Leatherface more. The gore wasn't quite up to par but there are still a few pretty ruthless scenes. I also never realized Viggo Mortenson was in this one (I probably did the first time I watched it, but back then, I didn't know who he was.) Also, Ken Foree played a pretty major role so that was cool too. I liked it better than TCM2.

B+



13 Going On 30

Don't ask me why I watched this. I was laying down to go to sleep and I put it on for background noise (for our dog). I have to put on something that doesn't interest me otherwise I'll end up staying awake and watching it. Well, before I knew it, I had watched the whole movie. (If I had known I'd be up for another hour and half I woulda watched something much cooler. Trust me on that.)

Okay, enough defending myself for watching this, and on with the review... It was okay, at least better than I was expecting. And by the way, Jennifer Garner is HOT! The casting was good,the humor was standard for achick flick type of movie and the ending is entirely predictable and exactly what you'd expect.

C- It should be noted that a C- from me for a chick flick is pretty good. As far as girly movies go, this was one of the better ones I've seen I guess.

[Despare]

Izo. Another Tikishi Miike flick only this time he tries to make you think. Didn't work as well as I expect the director wanted it to and what is his obsession with sperm?? Anyway, lots of gore and some cool fights, not a bad movie but it wasn't cinimatic gold. The CG was better than Ichi's but the gore was turned down a bit. Watch it if for nothing else but to see where she hides her sword (if you've seen it you know what I mean).

[The_Return]

Phantom of the Paradise


What a crazy movie. Bits and pieces of Phantom of the Opera [obviously], Faust, Dorian Gray...really odd little flick. But it was certainly enjoyable:p Better than I expected.

The Changling. I really like ghost more than gore - I guess because I don't believe in ghosts, but do believe in homicidal maniacs.

I'm new on this forum and I'd like to get opinions about a movie that freaked me out in the 70's called Mansion of the Doomed. I can't tell which forum I would make this request. A new one?

[The_Return]

The She-Beast



Pretty bad 60's B movie with Barbara Steele. This was just a whole new level of cheese for me. I love a good, cheesy B movie...but this was too much for me. Worth the $5 I spent for it though, I guess.

Anyways, great cast, good jokes and a humorously executed plot make this one a must see if you haven't seen it already.

Last night, I watched Bride of Frankenstein for the first time. What an incredible movie, not to mention better than the 1st, IMO. The hermit scene was so incredibly sad:(. After he learned to talk though, I didnt much care for the good ol' monster, just made him cheesy. But aside from that, great movie.

I was looking forward to seeing this film, even though I've dropped out of the Dario Argento fan club, simply because his earlier giallos were better executed. Alas, it was not to be. This film suffered from a number of flaws which made it almost altogether unwatchable.

Well, I ended up watching this on IFC this morning because there was nothing else on. It's about a that gets quarantines in the mid 1900s after an outbreak of of the Plague and the story of the doctor trying to help the people. I don't know... I found it to be a little confusing, very slow moving and rather boring. Not very entertaining at all in my opinion...

When it wasn't boring, Dead Birds scared the everliving shit out of me. (The kid under the bed made me jump out of my skin).

Cabin Fever has a really original kind of idea with the whole disease thing and that idea really creeps me out. I guess it was just really effective. I just enjoyed it, although I know alot of you hate it.

Wrong Turn, on the other hand, just pissed me off. Everytime it would get kind of tense or scary, they'd ruin it by having one of those damn things release a high-pitch giggle or show some really bad effects. And that girl pissed me off. BIG time.

[bwind22]

Rapid Fire

This movie feels older than it is. It has all the cheesy lines, music and action of a mid 80s Chuck Norris or Rambo style movie but it came out in 92. Acting was mediocre, action was pretty good, plot was pretty basic for an action movie. Aside from The Crow, I think this is the only other Brandon Lee movie I've seen. It was a decent action flick but nothing spectacular.

The Lost Boys

Good cast and acting. Pretty average direction, but no real on screen gore, which is a bit disappointing. Corey Haim sporting some of the most ridiculously 80's clothing ever caught on tape is reason enough to rent this vampire classic though. And any movie with both Corey's, Kiefer Sutherland, and Alex Preston (Bill from Bill & Ted's) is alright by me.

Black Christmas

This is a very well done older slasher film. The budget seems low because pretty much all of the gore happens off screen (Think Halloween) but the acting is just fine. This movie was 4 years ahead of Halloween and seems like it played a fairly big influence in John Carpenter's style. A nice little twist at the ending of this to make considerably less cheery than the Hollywood norm makes it a worthy rent.

Psycho II

I really enjoy this film and over the years it has grown to become one of my favorite sequels. It was filmed like 17 years after the first one and the story takes 17 years after the events of the first one as well. The story is cool and twisted, Anthony Perkins is back reprising the role of Norman Bates and the ending is superb! If you enjoyed the original Psycho, then I think you should give this sequel a shot. You won't be disappointed.

I was somewhat surprised, in a good way, by the overly dark nature of this action/comedy. Fast paced, funny and fresh, this film delivers. There's a good amount of fight scenes, basic yet cool plot, considering the A-List budget, the acting is just fine. Chalk up another cool movie for one of the most consistent cool movie generators in Hollywood, Mr. Pitt.

Chalk up another cool movie for one of the most consistent cool movie generators in Hollywood, Mr. Pitt.

B+

I was really surprised too, great movie and I was expecting so much less. I love when she's on the floor behind the couch and he just starts kicking the hell out of her it's hillarious. Surprised that made the cut honestly.

Return of the Living Dead

This movie is highly underrated. Great, cheesy gore! Great, cheesy acting & script! Cool ending! Not to mention just tons of inventive, original and creative stuff that you won't in any other zombie films.

A-




War of the Worlds

Ugh! This movie could have been cool if everything didn't go Tom Cruise's way for no other reason than him simply being Tom Cruise. There were some real cool parts of this movie but by the standards Spielberg has set for himself, I'd say it's sub-par by a longshot. The actor that played Tom Cruise's son had to be one of the most annoying little fucks I've seen in a movie this year.

D+



Steel Dawn

I love me some good 80's post-apocalyptic action movies and if they star Patrick Swayze with a beard, all the better. By no means, is this a great movie, it's not even good. Instead it's one of those films that is so corny that you can't help but pretty much laugh the whole time. I like the dark futuristic movies in general plus the cheesieness makes this one tolerable.

[eastsidemotel6]

I just saw The Begotten. That has to be the most memorable film, if it can even be called that, I have ever seen. It is a lot like watching the video tape from the ring, but 1,000,000 times more bizarre and disturbing. If you have netflix, rent it. I don't think I can ever watch it again, but once is enough.

Boo 1/5
Started out asking, "where are the Japanese?" followed by, "did I get the wrong movie?". It turns out that my warped memory remembers a sample clip of Home Sweet Home which is a Japanese horror film, and somehow associated it with the title, Boo.

That aside, what started as a promising modern haunted asylum horror film ended in an almost unwatchable finale.

Domino 3/5
Did Tony Scott come to the editing room with the latest editing effects software package? The movie certainly looks that way. I wonder how it would have turned out, had Ridley been there to reign him back just a bit. I was afraid this was going to be another Kill Bill type pulp action film, but it ended better than I thought.

Masters of Horror: Homecoming 4/5
While not exactly feature film length, this can hold its own as well as any. An impressive piece from Joe Dante, which just mixes up my ranking list yet again...

Tobe Hooper - Dance of the Dead
Joe Dante - Homecoming
Don Coscarelli - Incident On & Off a Mountain Road
Stuart Gordon - Dreams in the Witch-House

[Yellow Jacket]

I just got back from a viewing of Aeon Flux. It fuckin' rocked!!! The action was great, special effects are top notch, acting excellent, directing was good, and Charlize Theron looked hotter than ever i this movie (just imagine if this movie would've been R instead of PG-13). If you're looking for a great popcorn flick to see in theaters, then get $10 out of your purse/wallet, head down to the local cineplex, get your ticket, get some grub, and head on in and enjoy Aeon Flux. You won't regret it! Well, hopefully you won't regret it.

Scary Movie

It's been a few years since I saw this last. It doesn't pack nearly the punch it did when all the jokes were fresh but there are still funny parts to it. Keenan Ivory Wayans is pretty funny as the big, tough looking black guy that pretty much only does and says things that make himself looking to be as gay as possible. Nice spoofs on Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Usual Suspects and more. Good for a few laughs, but it was better the firts time I saw it for sure.

Sky High

Better than I expected, but still not great. Though the best thing about the movie is that BRUCE CAMPBELL IS IN IT!!!!! He plays the gym teacher, and did a damn good job at it (like nobody expected it)! He stole the show as usual. But, as a high schooler myself, I just can't get over the fact that this is a PG-rated Disney flick baseed in High School. aAnytime you make a movie based in Higgh school, it better be rated R (or PG-13 at the least)! Overall, I'll give it a 3 out of 5. Rent it just for Bruce Campbell.

The Dukes of Hazzard
An ok flick, but definitely not great. Sure, it was enjoyable (and since this was the UNRATED Version, we got to see some tits. Though, they weren't Jessica Simpson's). Speaking of Jessica Simpso, she did a horrendous job here. She let her looks do the acting, adn, though she is hot, I'm still not a fan of the dumbass retard (no offense to retards). The plot was pretty weak. Boss Hog (played by the great Burt Reynolds) wants to use strip mines to destroy the town at the big, county race (they never told us why, though), where Bo (Seann William Scott) and returning town hero turned circuit driver Billy Pricket (James Broday). Oh, and we get some no-nonsense action (which was still somewhat enjoyable). That's all we've got.
Overall, I did enjoy the flick, though I couldn't help but get distracted when the movie started to lose interest. I'll give it 3 stars out of 5.

I thought it was OK...had some decent jokes, but over all it wasnt that funny. All actors involved with the exception of Reynolds [of course] were HORRENDOUS, the plot didnt make much sence, and was VERY repetitive. Extremly repetitive. As in they did the same thing like 20 times in a slightly diffrent way.

I'm not a huge Re-Animator fan, but I own it & Beyond & Bride. The original is the best of those three, followed by Beyond, then Bride, I'd say, but like I mentioned, I'm not a big fan.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation

After a debate about this film on the RANK: TCM thread, I figured I was due to rewatch it. What was I thinking? Okay, so it wasn't quite as bad as I recalled it, but it still sucked something fierce! Very bad dialogue for the first quarter of the movie, pretty bad acting throughout (With the exception of Matthew McCounaghey who is always pretty good and Renee Zelwegger who is fine.) The gore is minimal, especially for a TCM movie and the ending is just ridiculously stupid. (The limo guy? Come on! What the fuck was that shit all about?)

I would only recommend this to fans of the franchise and only to those fans that have already seen all the other TCM films, because this is the worst one by far.

I watched Cinderella Man last night. It's a great fucking movie!!! I'm not going to go into full explanation (cause It'd take too long), but I will say for my money's worth, I wasn't disappointed and the length (2 hrs. and 25 min.) was fitting.

[Doc Faustus]

You're very lucky. The kangaroo doesn't even actually talk outside of a hallucination and a bizarre moment at the end of the movie. False representation of talking animals disappoints the crap out of children so often. My younger siblings wanted desperately to see Snow Dogs and then found out that the dogs only talk during a hallucination.

Fantastic 4

Meh... It was okay. I'd say it's better than Hulk or Daredevil, but worse than SpiderMan or X-Men, but then again that's right about how I'd place the comics themselves too. Chiklas is good as The Thing and whoever the guy was playing Mr. Fantastic had that part down pretty well. The Human Torch didn't really look like the comic version of himself but the attitude was portrayed correctly. And is it just me or is Jessica Alba in like every comic book movie that comes out nowadays? (okay so it's just this, Sin City and Dark Angel which isn't even a movie, but still...) Oh well, she's hot and if she likes comics too, that just makes her one cool chick in my book.

Anyways, overall this movie was just alright. The sequel should be better because they don't have to waste half the movie setting up how they got their powers (That's why X-Men 2 is better than X-Men also.) The FX were good, the fight scenes were a little disappointing, but the huge car wreck on the bridge was cool. This one's hit or miss... You probably won't hate it... But I'd be surprised if you loved it too.

Wow! Was this ever ahead of it's time! Dark and stylish futuristic silent film about two a city with two classes of citizen. The privelaged upper class that lives in the city and the workers that live several levels below the city. It's a bit slow but whta do you expect from a silent film. This one was made back in the 30s I think... Anyways, I really enjoyed it. It is now my top ranking silent film of all time. (Even though it's only the second one I've watched with a critical eye.)

Thirteen Ghosts Remake

This was the horror movie that got me into horrors three years ago. I bought it a few weeks ago and finally got around to watching it again. I still enjoy it, but barely. Sure, three years ago it seemed to me like the greatest movie ever made. Now, it's a timewaster. A lot of the characters are annoying (especially that little kid a.k.a. the little fucker), some pretty bland acting (except for Tony Shalhoub and Matthew Lillard), and this movie did give me a bad mindgrain. But, the reason I still enjoy it is because 1). The ghosts looked great, 2). It does have some cool "ghost chases", and 3). It was the horror movie that got me into horror movies. I'll give it 2 and a half stars out of 5.

This surprised me. After hearing some stuff about it on here, I wasnt expecting much at all, but it turned out to be pretty good. The actors werent great, but the kills were mostly well-done [Acid Cigarette was great], and the whodunnit aspect wasnt TOO predictable. I figured it out, but it took me most of the movie.


Overall- Above-average whodunnit that will keep you guessing [for awhile atleast], with a nice, claustrophobic atmosphere and good deaths. Definatly reccomended.

The Chronicles of Narnia :it was pretty awesome, they did a good job with it.
Shark Tale, Robots, and Big Fish for about the 30th time each. After he left I watched Kalifornia (dug up some of my old VHS's, I really need to get that one on dvd) and High Tension which I thought was ok at most...very gory, disturbing at times, but they just didn't do it right.

[noctuary]

Beyond the Darkness (AKA Buio Omega.) Strange and unsettling necrophilia/serial killer flick. The sleeve from Netflix claims that it is the most extreme of Joe D'Amato's films, but there wasn't nearly as much gore and violence as I'd been led to believe. Not the best thing I've seen, but not bad. Overall: 6/10.

This movie basically kicks ass from start to finish. Awesome acting, cool gritty storyline, some creative direction, and just an all around cool movie. The heavy British accents (Especially of the Pikers) can be a little difficult to understand, but you can generally get the point of the scene.

For Halloween, I rented a cabin in the woods out in the darkest woods of Vermont. Went on a horror flick binge for three days. Dracula, Halloween, The Changeling (a must see), Magic, The Exorcist, The Amityville Horror, The Blair Witch Project and the Sixth Sense. I was in a morbid mood until mid-November.

Beyond the Darkness (AKA Buio Omega.) Strange and unsettling necrophilia/serial killer flick. The sleeve from Netflix claims that it is the most extreme of Joe D'Amato's films, but there wasn't nearly as much gore and violence as I'd been led to believe. Not the best thing I've seen, but not bad. Overall: 6/10.
"Beyond The Darkness" AKA "Buried Alive" was quite decent for the low budget movie it was.

Saw "House Of Wax" yesterday. Not bad, kinda slow till the middle and it picked up. Could've used a little more gore though. And Kudos for the Paris-Hilton-pipe-in-the-head scene. :)

"The Forgotten"--- how lame was that movie? Cool effects like the people and buildings stripped into the air, but you don't even see or hear a good explanation of what the creatures are that are causing 'the experiments' on people.

The Descent
8 out of 10...hell maybe 8.5

It was refreshing to see a good "balls to the wall" horror movie that didn't pull any punches.Didn't skimp on the gore either.
Plus the fact that the cast wasn't to hard on the eyes was a bonus.:)

[slasherman]

Skeleton key..6/10 ...in a strange way it reminded me of "Misery"

[alkytrio666]

Harry potter and the Goblet of Fire

Second best 'Potter' film...next to 'Azkaban'.

But very good, 9/10

House on Haunted Hill Remake

This was a helluva lot better than I expected! I enjoyed the "boo" scares a lot (didn't scare me, of course, but they did sound great in surround sound), the acting was great (except for Chris Kattan), loved the house itself (though the outside of it looked like a factory than a house), and some cool deaths (though they weren't shown as much as I would've liked them to be).

I'll give it 4 stars out of 5.

As far as comic relief characters go, I thought Kattan was pretty good, myself.

"Out of Scotch, thanks to you, Ass!"

"God, I'd love to get laid before I die."

Yuk yuk yuk.

Rush was great, they couldnt have got anyone better to play that part other than Price himself.

The Amityville Horror remake

I was expecting nothing from this film because all my friends said it sucked and many ppl here said it sucked.

I put this movie on last night,everyone else was asleep and it scared the living bejeezus outta me.I have to start rememebering that possession films are not for me.
4 out of 5 stars

The Bad News Bears Remake

This wasn't too bad of a comedy. I haven't seen the original Bad News Bears, so I didn't have anything to judge this against except itself. I'll admit that the movie did get very repetitive, and I wish they would've used Greg Kinnear a little bit more. But still, a good comedy if you have some time on your hands.

3 out of 5 stars.

The Island

This movie was pure shit! The acting was bad (except for Scarlett Johansson and Steve Busceimi), the action was "been there, done that", dumbest characters ever written, and I hated the whole "futuristic" shit! It sucked monkeyballs!

0 stars out of 5

Suspiria
Dead Birds
and Serpent and the Rainbow

Dead Birds surprised me, I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. As for the other two I've seen them before and they were just as great this time around.

Just finished watching House on Haunted Hill remake.

[Marroe]

I watched High Tension again just to see if MAYBE it was better than I thought at first.....no luck.

Valiant:
Eh, it was okay. The first 30 minutes were good, but then the film started to drag. It delivered some laughs here and there, though I still don't see how it earned a G rating.
2 and a half stars out of 5

The 40-Year-Old Virgin:
I already seen this movie when it was out in theaters and laughed my ass off! I rented it just to see how the UNRATED version (which was 17 minutes longer), and I laughed a little bit harder. More language and more nudity made it even more rewatchable. I loved it!

that's understable, but Franco himself adding hardcore footage (to the German dubbed version) with characters who are completely different isn't.

i don't know...it just doesn't seem like him or his style at all.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original)

I've seen this film more than probably any other movie out there, but I think it gets better every time. A true masterpiece from start to finish and one of my favorite horror films of all time. (If not #1, it's in the top 3 for sure.)

A+



The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (remake)

Not a bad interpretation at all, but still not a remake that needed to be done. There are several things I prefer in the original over this one, however the addition of the sheriff (R. Lee Ermey) and the brutal scene with that guy trying to get himself off the icehook were both welcome additions.

B+



The Dukes of Hazzard

If I could go to the studio and demand the time I spent watching this piece of shit back, I would. I enjoyed Burt Reynolds performance, but other than that there really wasn't even anything remotely entertaining about this film and that's somewhat of a shock because I usually find Sean William Scott (Stifler) very funny. The only good thing about this movie (other than Burt Reynolds) was that they kept Jessica Simpson's lines as minimal as possible, but in all honesty, I don't think her crappy acting could have made this any worse.

Drillbit/Bad Karma- Two independent films I got in a box full of movies on eBay. Not bad though for an extremely small budget.

Dog Soliders
Finally saw this one too.
Very Good!!

And it was the movie that was on Scifi last month,but I'm glad I rented it anyway-It actually made sense uncut and with LANGUAGE-lol

Finally saw this, and hot damn it was worth the wait! Incredible movie, Ash kicks sooo much ass. To be honest, after seeing ED, I had no idea what all the fuss was about Ash. Now I know!

This Machine kills Fascists - documentary about Woody Guthrie's life. A pretty mediocre doc about a great man.
