The Hills have Eyes

novadawn969 01-18-2006 05:15 PM

... the village. well... the first half. I listened when they said it was bad... until last night. I don't know why I did it. It was horrible. and the dialog, ugh. need I say more?

1 out of 10 *s

Agreed. Just a simple, good movie.

Last seen was Red Eye. It wasn't bad really, but I am glad I waited to rent. I just love that Rachel McAdams.

Return of the Living Dead

I thought this was great! Amazing how I went sooo long without seeing it! Great gore effects, pretty cool explanation, plus an awesome ending to boot!

One thing I dont get though: Everyone seems to love this movie, right? Ive heared a ton of people say they liked it. Yet, everyone complained about the "smart" zombies in Land of the Dead. If you ask me, these corpses were a heckuva lot smarter than Big Daddy's crew. I mean they figured out how to get delivery! Fresh brains, 10 min or its free!:p

I wouldn't say you'd have to like poker to like it though. Like you said, it's really well acted and it's not only about poker. To me, that's kinda like not recommending Kingpin because someone doesn't like bowling or Rudy because someone doesn't like football. Although I do like poker, so my view could be slanted.


Well I didn't say you have to like poker to like the film, just that if you're not into poker then it might bore you a bit. Like you said it's not all about poker but unlike Rudy in which they barely even display a field, poker is all throughout the movie. So you might like it, it's just that when the frequent poker scenes pop up ya might be a little lost for a moment.

It's like you're watching a movie that involves football but isn't completely about football and you come up on a scene of practice. Coach is walking around talking about pulling guards,hitch and go,cover 2 ect. ect. Someone not into football would be a little lost on that particular scene, that's all I was trying to imply.

(as you can tell, I'm a lil crappy at explaining things,hope you got the point.)

Hustle and Flow

Terrence Howard deserves the reconition he's getting from this role.

scouse mac 01-19-2006 03:56 AM

Struggled my way through Man on the Moon, the Jim Carey flick about Andy Kaufman. Didn't rate this one at all.

I watched the hills have eyes and dont know what all the hype was about. The surviving male and female (not the guy with the baby) were both annoying as all hell. I'm gonna return it and get something else.

the hype will be mostly from the older members of the forum - like myself - who saw it back in the day.
It was unusual and unsettling for it's time.
Of course things have gone far beyond that now .. but there's something to be said for being origional ... at the time.

just finished red eye. scream 4 anyone ?

Basket Case

Wow...what a crazy movie. Duane and Belial have got to be one of the coolest teams Ive seen in a long while. I didnt like the ending though...it was fitting, I guess, it just came too soon. Overall, I really did enjoy it though. Great gore, Belial looked awesome, and the first time we actually saw him was pretty creepy. Definatly recomended, if you havent seen it.

"Jabberwocky" 2/10


Seemed like a bad Monty Python movie, without the Phythons.

Except for Michael Palin who isn´t good/funny enough to make a difference in this piece of shit movie that, funny enough, totally lacks the humor from Gilliams 2 years earlier movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and 2 years later movie "Life of Brian". A shame..

Stuck On You


Dustin wanted me to watch it with him......I kinda watched part of it.....Might not have been too bad, if it had been a HORROR movie....Hmm, that made me think of a Tales From The Crypt episode, with the siamese twins...

urgeok 01-20-2006 03:28 AM

Jeremiah ..
I finished the 1st seasin boxset.

Although i was growing tired of the preachy predictable bad writing in parts, once it was over i missed the characters.
The friendship between the 2 leads was handled so well that you felt included in it - as a viewer.

now - the sad this is - that this show was cancelled before the end of season 2. apparently it was completed .. but the last few shows were never aired.

I hope season 2 is put out as a complete boxset some day but i dont see why they would bother now . ... which is a shame because after season one you're left hanging ...

"Poltergeist 1" and "Saw", although I thought "Saw" would be much gorier than what it was.

Amen.

I feel the same way- Saw was so over-hyped. I just kept hearing all these warnings and ads that all went something like:

"The goriest, scariest movie EVER!"

and

"It will make you sick to your stomach!"

I hate these damn people who have no horror experience and see one new, mainstream horror movie and think it's just disgusting.

Saw was one over-rated film.

alkytrio666 01-20-2006 10:46 AM

Watched "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" (1920) last night.

Loved it. It was almost as good as Nosferatu. Almost.

I absolutely loved the set pieces- my God they were so crazy and bizarre. Great film, in every aspect.

seriously, I belive that movie only really effected those types who never really watch horror. I didn't like "Saw" and I really don't want to see the sequil, unless I hear its better.
