View Full Version : HDC Coffin Joe screening.

So I think we all need a day to hang out and have fun with some crazy cult classics. I have downloaded some Coffin Joe movies (At Midnight I Will Take Your Soul, This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse and The Strange World of Coffin Joe). I also have Awakening The Beast coming. They have no subtitles at the minute but I am working on finding some so that we can hopefully have an HDC movie night.
This would include movies on the left side of your screen, and discussion with HDC regulars on the right.
What I need to know is, when would be the best day/time for everyone who wants to participate?

If you've never seen a Coffin Joe movie avail yourself of this opportunity. Jose Mojica Marins is one of the most original directors ever to put images on film.

Never seen 'em. REALLY want to. During the week I'm free generally after 8 or so... Weekends, it depends. Let me know and I'll try to make it.
I'm game

Yes. I have an account on livestream.com. It's reliable and they have their own program for the streaming movie thing which I already have set up on my computer. I'm gonna do a test stream of some Carnivale episodes just to make sure it works and my settings are all fine.
So we're looking at weekdays after 8, and not a Monday. Maybe separate it and do one movie a night, once a week for a month, cause I have 4 movies. Or do the first two in a single night, and then a week later do the documentary and Awakening The Beast. Once I get a few more interested people I will choose a day.
How do Wednesdays sound? Something to keep all the working/schooling folk sane til the weekend.

If we do one movie a week that wouldn't be too bad. Then people can get to bed at a decent hour.

Yeah, precisely.
So here is where I bring up an idea and see what everyone thinks.
Next Wednesday, This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse at 9EST. I would like to have everyone attend. Before I start the movie, I will show everyone how to close the chat or make the movie full screen. Movie plays, people can chat about whatever the hell they want, MST3K style, on topic or otherwise. Once the movie ends I'll post a thread in the Classic Horror section (I think, because it says pre 1960 but Modern is post 1970), and that is where we will have ONLY on topic conversation, discussion, facts, trivia etc.
Does this sound good?

Very nice. And great to hear that Urge was there. Wish he would pop into HDC again...
I would love this I know but...the time difference will make it impossible. 9 PM EST is like 6 30 AM in the morning for me. I usually wake up at 6 AM to do my cycling for an hour and half, and sitting in front of the computer watching a Coffin Joe film so early in the morning and deviating from my morning schedule would freak my family out.
Wish there was a night slot...sounds like a real blast but oh well. :\

Apple technician. Pays so well, covers your public transportation and you can apply for car pooling. They will pay $2000/year for you to take extra hardware classes and stuff, health benefits are pretty good. Always promoting people. You start as a tier 1 support, and after 3 months get to tier 2. Then you can either be a manager, harware tech or get upped to Iapps support. So they just promoted people who have both hardware and Iapps experience to Ipad support and are hiring 75 new people for tier 1 over the next three weeks. Basically promoted the whole building. :D
So my bf was hired in the first round and I don't have a drivers license so I have been looking for jobs in town and finding nothing. But since this pays for transportation and we can car-pool I really hope I can get in.

Sorry about last night. We've been without power/internet on and off because of tornado warning type weather. It's bizarre, really. We normally got about 50 years without any extreme weather conditions and yesterday afternoon an earthquake hit Quebec and radiated down through Ontario and even hit parts of the states. Then the news has tornado warning and the thunder storms suddenly hit everywhere. It was insane.
As for the job... I don't think I got it. They had all these questions and I thought they were just common sense, knowledge based things. Turns out it was a personallity quiz and I failed it. There were answer options that said "appologize to the caller for their distress and blah blah blah" and I picked those most often cause I'm thinking "If I'm on the phone because my 300 dollar iphone is broken I'm likely to be upset, and an appology would make me think the person on the phone was empathetic and willing to help". Turns out I'm too nice and have no backbone and that you should never appologize because that's admitting guilt and puts the product in a bad light.
So I applied for a job where you cannever be too nice... a job working with the elderly. Unfortunately that's going to get weird. My bf's little sister currently works there and I applied thinking we'd work together. Sister in law bonding etc etc. Then I talked to the daughter of the person hiring and she tells me "Thank God. We really need older people for this job because the highschool girl is not working out." So great, she's getting fired and I might get her job.

That's really weird and doesn't make sense at all - When I worked in Customer Service, they wanted us to "show empathy" to the caller, which often meant apologizing for their situation.

I watched some of it last week and there were boobies everywhere, if that's what you're asking.
I looked it up, uncut copy is an hour and 20 minutes, this one runs an hour and 23 with the beginning commentary taking up approx. 3 minutes. This was a dvd rip from the box set so it's the unrated, uncut version.

oh no,no,no,no,no.......you must have misunderstood my query. I just don't like to see a movie cut up and butchered.....that is all. Boobies was the farthest thing from my mind......never even gave it a thought....in fact I never really even notice that woman have them........soft ....supple......er....I mean...BOOBIES....What the hell are they anyway.....just fat glands really....nice....firm...er..........nevermind.
