[AUSTIN316426808]

another one from Mr. Eastwood

Bridges of Madison County

great movie IMO.

[AUSTIN316426808]

just finished Heist

Gene Hackman killed it as he usually does, the acting wasn't great but alright. Overall I think it was pretty good I always like movies about a big elaborate Heist.

well my tank is on E and I'm going to see Sideways before the oscars tonight so I'm off, peace people:D

"Ricochet"...an action/thriller with Denzel...Very good acting by John Lithgow..This movie reminds me a little bit of "Face Off"...

[ChEEbA]

Yeah, richochet was cool...I always like it when I see denzel playing nutz and putting on the lipstick like a madman...shit makes me laugh.

[slasherman]

hmmm whats that old classic movie they play many times threw the movie..?....were that guy stands "On top of the world"

[urgeok]

'look ma, I'm on top of the world' ?

isnt that White HEat - with James Cagney ?

[TheOmen]

Yep(or The Public Enemy)...or Titanic!

it SUCKED!

Completly agree, saw it a few weeks ago. Id still like to see the Sinatra version however...

[urgeok]

watched The Anchorman last night ...
started slowly - thought it was going to bomb, but it picked up and got pretty funny thanks to the supporting actors.
I still dont think Farrell can carry a movie as a lead ... and he wasn't the best character in this film.

Still - a couple of really funny bits and lots of cameos.


then .. i watched The Dirty Seven

a crappy italian action film - lame in every way except one very beautiful girl. Other than that .. unwatchable without one finger on the fast forward button.

Brick was the best part of that whole movie. "I DONT KNOW WHY WE'RE YELLING!!" I thought it was pretty good.

[BH14]

"It smells like Bigfoot's !@c#"

haha... it wasnt Ferrell's best movie, but has a lot of cheap laughs.

Brick was easily the best part of the movie ... well, that and whatsername wearing that little kitchen garment in the fantasy sequence)

Actually today our kid said a couple of completely goofy things so we started calling him 'brick'

Steve Carell, who played Brick is starring in an up and coming Get Smart movie playing Maxwell Smart.With him in it it could be good.

i see him on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart... He is very funny...

Dark Water erie and good, but if you're getting into Jap stuff, I recently got Shutter, see pic below. It does follow the style of other Jap ghost films, but I found it to be more intence, with more scares.


ha ha I just got round to purchasing Phone myself, gona watch the next day off I have.

the japanese are definately the new italians ..

a few people give flack to the sameness of some of the visuals .. (shuffling wet hair hanging down in the face women ..)
but i find it just as effective every time.


certainly a hell of a lot more effective than some slow moving goofball with a machette thats been redone in about 1000 american films.

Most recently viewed movies:

The Chronicles of Riddick (Entertaining b-grade fluff. I love Vin Diesel as a psycho)

Collateral. Very good. i liked Tom Cruise as a bad ass. Jamie Foxx was excellent. I missed part of it because there was an entire track on the dvd that didnt play... :(

Best line in the movie:

"You killed him!"
"NO, I Didn't. The bullets and the fall killed him."


Last, the Manchurian Candidate. Though it was awesome. Definitely the best out of the 3. (Collateral was a close 2nd though)

had the same problem with my 2 disc version, apparantly its a pressing error... faulty batch of discs. You can get to see that track though, it's a bit of a hassle, but if you bookmark just before the bit where it goes dodgy, and then slow frame through the start of the bad part then play normally, it seams to play it ok.

I watched all of these within the past month or so... Manchurian Candiate [Unless you are talking about the original, which I havnt seen], I thought was awful. But thats just my opinion.

Riddick was decent, but nowhere near comparable to the very good Pitch Black that it was a spin-off from. But for a bit of mindless action, not that bad.

Colateral, on the other hand, was great. Amazing performances by both Cruise [I cant believe I just said that] and Foxx. The story was fairly original, and Vince was one crazy muthafucka.

[42ndStreetFreak]

"Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre" - Too episodic to truly grip you as far as the characters are concerned. as the film re-creates one true event and/or atrocity after another with the very few characters we get to know leading us to each of these re-creations but doing little else.

But there are some really powerful, shocking moments and sights and the last 15 minutes horrifyingly piles on the kind of heartbreaking, up close and personal tragedy the rest of the film was mostly lacking.

And the final scene is amazingly powerful and affecting.
It brought tears to my eyes and made me hold me 7 month baby girl just that little bit tighter.

And it can be taken far more seriously as a serious, dramatic condemnation of atrocity than the more widely seen, far more exploitative, "Men Behind the Sun".

[urgeok]

i thought Riddick movie over extended itself a bit ...
the 1st one was such a stripped down action film
with a new interesting lead ..

the Chronicles movie got a bit too complex - it was all over the place - tried to cram too much in.
One thing wouldnt be finished and it was off in another direction.

Like an attempt to turn an action film into an epic.

It was visually interesting but i found other than one or 2 characters no one had enough screen time to develop ..
so i wasnt as interested in what happened to them.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Sideways

it was just has funny as it was well done.

i just watched a documentary on the sundance channel called "the year of the bull"...it was made in 2003...it's about a high school football player from florida....i dug friday night lights...alot....but this documentary made me wanna tackle somebody....i loved it....it was pretty ghetto...so beware culture shock.

I don't know anywhere that sells them in th uk, off or online.

[movieman64]

I watched Horror Vision and Side Show yesterday, I liked them, but their not the glossy new releases most people like. I've seen Friday Night Lights, Manchurian, and Collateral too, and got to say Manchurian was the best of the bunch, but they all made a great sucking sound in my opine. Collateral was so boring, dragging on and on, and was so predictable.

[Vodstok]

David Twohy (the director) just wanted to make fun b-grade action flicks. The first was basically his version of the original "THing" and movies like that. In the commentary, he said he was looking to make kind of a throwback to 50's era monster movies.

I expected bvery very little, so i enjoyed what i got :)

He's got quite a following with his films/screenplays so he's doing something right. My wife is a new release whore so she liked it a lot more then I did.

That's funny, I think it's one of the better versions. maybe because it's a silent film causes it to lose some of it's appeal for you?

All great films, try Vampyr (1932? too lazy to go look at my copy) it's not silient but the sound quality is so poor it might as well be. I believe it is originally a French film, and it is avaiable on DVD. I have taken to watching most silent films on my laptop, so I'm a lot closer, and can see the sub-titles a lot better.

Wow! A real classic, one of the best.

Le Manoir Du Diable (The Devil's Castle) is considered the first "horror" film, but I don't think there is any copies of it. We discussed it in film class along with a couple of other very early silent films, unfortunately a lot of them are not available, or lost to the ages...damned old nitrate film.

1896, George Melies. 2 minutes long, what an epic!

Isn´t it also called "Zombie flesh eaters"?


If so, i didn´t like it so much. "City of the dead" was way better, with the count Dracula look alike who could make people bleed from their eyes. That was nicely made.:)

Because [Until last night] I handt watched a movie in weeks, Im going overboard today. So far, Jeckyl and Hyde, Zombi, and, most recently, Highwaymen.

Very good movie. Fairly original [Albiet VERY perdicatable] plot, decent acting [Colm Feore, great as usual], and one hell of an ending!!!

Ferrara's "China Girl" (http://www.beardyfreak.com/rvchina.htm)

[EXTR3MIST]

And Snuff Trap - by Bruno Mattei under a pseudonym.

Cheap, bad-soap-opera feel to it (in fact, not unlike Fantom Kiler with which it shares some of the sleazy atmosphere achieved from the "shot-on-video" look) and atrocious dubbing, but some nicely european fake "snuff" scenes to put the likes of 8mm into context.

In fact, it's interesting to observe the difference between directors' interpretations of the snuff myth - compare the safe, bland depictions in a Hollywood production like 8mm through the kinkier, more aggressive Snuff Trap to the unflinching and super-exploitive Guinea Pig episodes.

[The_Return]

Wort movie I watched today, but it wasnt outright terrible: Sky Capitan and the World of Tomorrow.

*******SPOILERS. VERY MASSIVE SPOILERS******




















*******************REQUIRES ANOTHER WARNING. MASSIVE, MOVIE RUINING SPOILERS******************************














The best part of the whole movie[Aside from a few of the special effects] was [I warn you again, MASSIVE spoiler] when we learn that Totenkopf was dead the whole time, and it was simply his machine carrying out their orders. Best part, one of the only good parts, actually....



























******END SPOLIER**********


A few of the special effects were amazing, but some other ones looked like they came straight out of cheesy adventure shows in the mid-late 90's, when they though CGI looked good[IE: Sinbad]. Overall, it was orth watching, but nothing spectacular.

[BH14]

Hard Boiled.... you won't find a movie that uses more rounds than this. Good plot, cool characters and lot of gun fights. 8.5/10

[IDrinkYourBlood]

Night Walker. a vampire anime. quit kick ass.

"The Bourne Supremacy" (2004)..not as good as the first but a good action movie...To fast editing...which dont fit this kind of movie...instead of holding one camera wiew some seconds they choose to cut from a lot of angles... all the time....

"Collateral" (2004)...a dissapointing thriller....not believable...ok entertainment ..

[BH14]

The Verdict

Very good movie... It makes you hate lawyers even more. Newman does a great performance, but I thought the ending should have been a little bit long and better. It was too quick.

is it like Kill Bill martial arts or is it like Crouching Tiger,Hidden Dragon martial arts?

and if it's the latter then is it just completely ridiculous? for example the tree hopping scene in Crouching Tiger.

thats the trouble with you yanks, you want all fucking guns blazing and constant firepower and swearing to boot. It's nothing like kill bill.... kill bill is way below this. Tarantino only got his name plastered all over the r1 and r2 covers so that Miramax could sell it in the States, as it would be a non-seller without his endorsments. There's nothing rediculous about the film at all.. it's a different style of directing a combat scene, thats to difficult for some people to grasp.

I was just asking if the martial arts was the same style and Kill Bill was the first thing that came to mind that had something to do with sword fighting.

Just watch "Iron Monkey"... You wont be disappointed. Great action, great plot and great acting, even by the little boy who can kick major a$$.

I like movies like that I was just asking because I do think it's kinda ridiculous but it's still entertaining.

No, and I don't think it's him during the sex in this either. You never see his face in the ame shot as the sex.

she showed them quite a bit ..
there was couple of films she did around the same time ..
That was a fun period of film .. late 70's to late 80's demon movies ..

[The_Return]

Over the past few classes, we've been watching Amadeus in our Music class.

Wow, that is a great movie. F. Murray Abraham was outstanding as Antonio Salieri, and the rest of the cast was very talented aswell.

[BH14]

just saw "American History X" for the first time. Edward Norton is a good actor and this movie has a great plot dealing with skinheads, racism and jail. just thinking about the curb part makes me cringe. great ending too. you all should definetly check it out.

[evil_blonde]

The last movie I saw (only half of) was Run Lola Run. I know it's not horror but... too bad.

Anyone else see it? I only got to see half of it.

[The_Return]

Watched a couple tonight.


Beyond the Law- A fairly good spagetti western w/ Lee Van Cleef, enjoyable, but nothing spectacular.


Boogymen:The Killer Compilation- Really cool disc featuring clips from some classic slasher [Well, mostly slasher...and mostly classic] films. Pretty neat!

[orangestar]

yesterday I watched Spiderman 2...but thats not horror.


So I watched Blair Witch Project. And I liked it. :p

The Village

[urgeok]

i watched Spongebob Squarepants - the Movie with my little guy ..
it's fun listening to his belly laughs :)

[The_Return]

S'mornin, I watched "Boogymen:The Killer Compilation" again, this time w/ commentary by Robert Englund.

I also watched "The Jackals", an old Vincent Price western [Yes, you did read that right]. I thought it was pretty decent, nothing spectacular. Kinda neat seeing good ol' VP in something this...different.

[42ndStreetFreak]

"Bang-Rajan" - Superbly crafted, historical Thai film about a village holding out against the invading Burmese army.
Lots of ultra-violent, bloody and sometimes gory battle scenes (a bit too much shaking camera work but not too bad) and a simple but stron, emotional, story.

It's biggest failing (at least from Western eyes, and i've seen many many Japanese and Hong Kong films) is that except for really 6 main characters EVERYONE looks the same! Including the women!
Very similar features, exact same hairstyles, exact same facial hair, exact same build and exactly the same clothes!
As such it can be very hard to figure out who just died (or not) and you wonder if you had actually seen them in the movie before they died!

But that aside this is an astonishing achievemnt for such a small film industry and is wonderfully acted throughout and looks amazing.
The finale is a brutal and bloodymasterwork and shows up how vapid and stodgy something like "Braveheart" is.

[Angra]

Just seen "The machinist".

I liked it very much.

Love those kind of movies where you´re wondering what the hell is going on and have to wait until the very end for the answer to be revealed.
And of course Christian Bale was excellent... As usual.:D

The Corpse Vanishes, a run-of-the-mill Lugosi flick, starring Bela as a mad scientist who steals the corpses of brides to keep his ageing wife beautiful. Not bad, enjoyable...but not great.

Conatagion.

A none to great virus flick that had all the fixins of a TV movie, but wasnt. Not very original plot, mostly either washed up or unheared of [polite ways to say "bad", in this case] actors, plus one ot two big names [Jeffery Combs, the only glimmer of talent]. I enjoyed it somewhat...worth renting, but considering I bought it for less then it would have cost to rent....Iguess it's worth owning:p

[newb]

Just watched "Ladder 49" ....good movie...kinda like "Backdraft"..well acted. good effects, good story.


If your into fireman type movies.....it will suffice.

Also watched "Dazed and Confused".

Mem’ries,
Like the corners of my mind
Misty water-colored memories
Of the way we were
Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another

Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again

LOL...one of my daughters has been sick with the flu, so I bought her this flick, hoping it might help with her laying in bed all day blues. Instead it turned into, lay on the couch and have daddy watch it with her on the big screen. So hay, being the great dad I am we watched it in all it's 5.1 surround sound, big screen glory. My kids watch, (and love) a lot of the older more benign horror/Sci-Fi films with me so hay a kids flick once in awhile don't hurt.

God knows I've bought enough of the SB blankets and sheet sets, underware, (for the kids!) shirts, and pajamas, but I'd never really sat down and watched any of the cartoons. I have to admit it was funny, made me laugh too. But back to reality, now it's time for a Sponge Bob Slasher film...

[BH14]

Just saw "The Pianist"... Very good movie, but not as good as Schindler's List. Pretty damn graphic. Just thinking about what the nazis did to the old guy in wheelchair makes me cringe. What is even scarier is that these events actually happened in Poland.

[slasherman]

"Kiss Meets The Phantom Of The Park".....I'm a old Kiss fan sooooo :)
...Cant remember watching a movie with worse stand ins....:D

[Croll]

Uzumaki (japanese horror flick, not bad)

[urgeok]

watched 'Phone' tonight ..
the koreans just haven't nailed it the way the Japanese have.
This film used most of the same elements of the eye/ju-on/dark water but not as effectively and for some reason the filmmaker felt the need to explain every little detail of the back story.
Decent acting ..especially the kid ..
I dont know if its because of the language or cross culture effect but these kids in the japanese/korean films seem so much better than american kid actors.

anyway - i cant really recommend this one .. its a poor cousin to the japanese counterparts.

[The_Return]

The remake of Thirteen Ghosts.

As Ive mentioned [Alot], House on Haunted Hill[1999] is one of my favourite movies. So, needless to say, hopes were high for this. I thought it was fairly enjoyable, but HoHH is far superior. Quite odd after seeing Amadeus last week...F. Murray Abraham was spectacular in that, and it seems odd seeing him in such a....different[For lack of a better word] film.

[Elvis_Christ]

Cube and I'm halfway thru Cube 2 (I keep falling asleep)

[AUSTIN316426808]

TNT had a Eastwood night(or whatever you wanna call it) and I saw Blood Work and True Crime for the first time then Play Misty
For Me and In The Line of Fire.

I think Blood Work had a really good,well thought out story and of course I think Clint was did a good acting/directing/producing job, the rest of the acting was ok as well.[***Spoiler**** I can't believe I actually saw a movie with Jeff Daniels as the killer.***End Spoiler***]

Clint also did a good job with True Crime another really good story, James Woods and Denis Leary did well along side Eastwood.

In The Line of Fire was a good cat and mouse game between Eastwood and Malkovich, no big twist or anything mostly just the good guy and the bad guy going at each other.

By the time Play Misty For Me came on(2 A.M.) I couldn't get through the whole thing but I've seen it before so no big deal, pretty good acting by Eastwood and Jessica Walter but everybody else was sub-par overall it's a good thriller.

I don't know why people say ''I know it's not horror'' it doesn't matter, the thread title is ''Last seen movie'' not ''Last seen horror movie'' this is just a educated guess but I'd say that a majority of the movies posted in here aren't horror.

I know, but there are some purists on this site that would object to mentioning a movie that's not horror. Forgot to mention I also watched the 1st of 3 discs of Night Gallery. Loved it! I remembered all 3 shows that were on the disc. It was great watching it again. Looking forward to getting the next 2.

Sorry, urge, rented it on Netflix. They also have Nightstalker, but just the pilot movie, not the series. I'm sure eventually they'll get it.

They also have the Legacy Collections of Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolf Man. Can't wait to see those!

I saw Martin Scorseazies (spelled that wrong TO THE MAX) Binging out the Dead. I was wanting to see this movie for the longest time now. I think he was trying to make another Taxi Driver except with paramedics (seriously it was like the same movie). It wasnt too terrible, but it didnt hold my attention either (I fell alseep). Im giving it 3 out of 5.

ringu 2. found it ended up making no sense whatsoever and leaving a lot of loose ends in the end. was quite disappointed. so i watched audition afterwards... awesome movie.


oh and i could not for the life of me, get through undead... ugh...

[Vodstok]

Audition was great. I have a beagle, so i hated what happened to the dog...

But the foot part just kills me.... I never laughed so hard at something so awful before.

[hellfire1]

***SPOILERS AHEAD***









*dog walks into frame*

me : "that bitch had better not touch that dog !"

i was sooo pissed. lol as soon as there's an animal in a horror movie, you can always expect the worse. ( and i saw the pics. so cute )

the foot part is morbidly excellent. love how when she's done sawing it off, she kind of shrugs happily and tosses it.... makes annie wilkes look like a teletubby.

just wondering but are you still not giving the movie a chance in hell? if not what do you think they'd have to do to make it work or is it impossible to duplitcate.

[42ndStreetFreak]

Not sure....I mean you can't make another "Miami Vice" as it's so much a product of it's time.
The only way to do that would to go the mostly comic "Starsky and Hutch" movie route.

OR, you make a general, serious modern thriller and simply call it "Miami Vice" for the hell of it.

[AUSTIN316426808]

it was either 6 or a 7... I didnt care for the plot either, the characters, but it was the special effects and nice fight scenes that were done very good. I lost a little respect for the predator as well comparing him from part 1. It's a "Vs" movie which means you cant really expect a nice plot.

Just watched Halloween 4.... This is definetly one of the best sequels around period.... Great story, good characters, nice murders and great ending. This is better than Halloween 2 in my opinion. Only 1 is better. "Cops do it by the book" ... what the hell does that shirt mean? whore

PS... The only thing that bothered me in this movie is that he finger gouged like 3 or 4 people to death. Done a little too much and could have been a little more original. This is where Friday the 13th has an advantage over Halloween.

[Elvis_Christ]

Halloween 4 is cool but 2 fucking owns it I think I almost like it better than the original.

[42ndStreetFreak]

Love the bleak ending to "Halloween 4". The series should have ended there.

Ferrara directed 2 "Vice" episodes, the other was "Dutch Oven" in season 2.

[BH14]

best part in halloween 4 is the ending... I was like "Hell yea".. and then the guy was like "No No No No!!!".

I don't think I was in the right frame of mind when I watched this, maybe watch it again sometime soon. It just didn't come across as a well scripted film...too jumbled up and artsy, and trying to be something it wasn't. Maybe I've seen too many good jap ones before this and was expecting too much from it.

"Octopus"

[excelsior]

last film I watched was Guinea Pig 2: Flower of Flesh and Blood, last night. It was the inaugural test screening of the new and improved film society I just took over.

the film was OK. I'd had it for a couple of years, but was too much of a scaredy-cat to watch it until... well it just felt right... the sound fx and the wacky lighting and camera angles rather detracted from the solid groundwork established in the stalking and abduction sequences, I felt... and it only really made me feel sick when the maggots and worms started squirming around all over the place

I like "Madman". It has it's faults but the positives outnumber the negatives and the 'AB' DVD transfer looks very nice indeed.

Witch House last night, and I'm planning on Voodo Academy today.

I just looked on Netflix - they have Witchouse, but not Witch House. Is it the first title? If it is they have all 3 of them.

lol that line of mine was a humorous understatement.... it's the dry Uk humor.

Just watched Face, another asian flick, not bad, but not realy for scare seekers, stick to some of the other well known asian horrors.

[The_Return]

Watched a few since I last posted...


Invisible Ghost- Like most movies Ive seen latly...enjoyable, but nothing spectacular.


The Frighteners- Seen it alot....but damn thats a great movie. Dahmers is the best part.


The Killer Shrews- What can I say....I guess you can pretty much judge by the title on this one...pure cheese, terrible acting...but pretty enjoyable...

[slasherman]

"PvsA"..with commentary..liked the second commentary better with those effects guys :)

[ShankS]

Zombi 2 25thSE

"A chinese ghost story"


Damn, what a stupid movie.

The acting was theatrical and bad. The horror was nonexisting. The martial art scenes were sword fighting scenes (No fists or kicks). Oh, and of course the fighters could jump 50 feets in the air. God, i hate that. The effects were fairly good at times but mostly pretty lousy, like the skelletons. And the story was just plain crappy.

Somewhere i´ve read that it should be visually beautiful. Well, you could easily see that it wasn´t a B-movie, but when i think visually beautiful i think "Hero" and it didn´t reach that one to its shoelaces.

WHO THE FUCK RECOMMENDED THIS STINKER? Grrrrrrrrrr!!!!:mad:

Requiem for a Dream

this one is HARSH to say the least.

I fucking recommend it!! One of the finest HK films ever made and still a masterpiece of Horror/Fantasy/Romance and Swordplay. Hk Nu-Wave had arrived and it was a breath of fresh air.
Great days.

Shocking!

Respectful thoughts that make far more sense...http://www.beardyfreak.com/rvchineseghost.htm

LOL.

Isn´t it funny how you can look at a movie so differently?

Bay of Blood last night, not sure what I'm gonna watch today. It's snowing again so I might watch 2.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Elizabeth for the first time since I bought it lord knows how long ago.

great movie and Kate Blanchett is F'n beautiful.

[Amalthea]

The Gathering:Religious thriller with a lot of scares, but nothing new.

[The_Return]

Ive said it before, and I know Ill say it again : Tim Burton is a genius. I just watched what many consider one of his worst [Though Ive never heared a bad review]...and I hope to buy it today.

Big Fish. Wow, what a movie. The acting was much better than Id expected, as Id only seen Ewan McGregor in the new Star Wrs, lol. He was really good in this, but Albert Finney much outshined him. The guy who played the son [His name escapes me] was pretty good too...If you were supposed to want to strangle him at some points, he was VERY good.

[urgeok]

wasnt it billy cruddup (sp?)

I'm not one of the many. I also thought it was a very good film.

yep. it's only one d

i thought it was 'technically' an ok movie - but it wasnt a 'Tim Burton' film ..

Why not? I found it very Burton-esque, especially most everything to do with the town of Spectre

[Vodstok]

It wasnt very burtonesque to me either, but i loved it.

And forget the Star Wars movies. Although Ewan is the best thing they have going fo rthem, you want to see Trainspotting. He is incredible in that, plus, it is just a great movie.

[newb]

Oh..this has been a great week of viewing for me...3 episodes of American Idol and The Apprentice last night....my wife is turning me into a fucking pussy:mad:

I'll try to make up for it this weekend....my son is bringing home a copy of "Dead Birds", a civil war ghost story thats getting great reviews.

the life aquatic with steve zissou.

... for the bowie songs in portuguese, bossa nova style and bill murray... the man is just hilarious.

very funny.

"Ong-Bak"


This martial art flick from Thailand totally blew me away.

It had amazing stunts, good fight scenes, good humor, VERY good camera work (Loved the replays of all the cool stunts) and especially an outstanding Lead actor/fighter in Tony Jaa.
I´ve never seen a martial art movie based on the Muay Thai style, but Ong-bak certainly shows that it can be done, and it wouldn´t surprise me if we get to see a lot more of it in the future. Jaa is like a blend of Jakie Chan, Steven Segal and Mark Dacascos, but just faster, tougher and as supple as a rubber doll.
The last fights in the cave had some of the wildest stunts i´ve ever seen.

I´m definitely gonna buy the sequal as soon as it comes out on DVD.:)

[The_Return]

I watched a fairly...odd assortment of films lat night/this morning

I watched Casablanca yesterday afternoon. Very good movie, but majorly overrated. Bogart was damn good though

That night, I rented The Who's "Tommy". Hmm, what can I say about this...briefly, it was the absolute strangest movie Ive ever seen, but not in a bad way. I loved it, plus the music was awesome!

This is where my movie watching hit a sour note. Fear of the Dark. So may words I could use to describe this...steaming pile of flaming dog shit sprinkled with a single grain of sugar works well. I say that because the story was awful, the actors couldnt act their way out of a paper bag, and there was so many cfontinuity mistakes I couldnt keep track. But the one grain of sugar is that damn good masks/makeup on the bad guy. Wow, he looked great! Too bad the rest was so terrible...

Then this morning I watched Big Fish again:D
