rofl...sounds awfully cheesy. I ll see if I can get it. :)

It really catches more shit than it should, its a good, fun film, some good laughs and some pretty bloody scenes. I liked it a lot.

you simply must watch: THOR VS. SATAN - i could only find a bit of it on youtube (though i saw the whole thing because a friend was into the band THOR - well until he saw this movie - then he wasn't).

:D

I dont think I can find that one around here. But, let me look.

Try -

They Nest - A TV movie about man eating cockroaches.
and
Boa vs Python - Two big snakes.


Both are pretty cheesy but just about entertaining.

Your friends are right. It tries way to hard to be a "b-flick" and its influences are just too obvious (verging on plagiarism).

It just lacks the subtlety and class of Body Melt or the early Jackson flicks.

Thats a good one.


I ll throw it in for a peek though...just to check out how cheesy it really is.

V, have you watched Lake Placid 2?

The best cheese EVER!

Irish horror movie with zombie cows and a zombie children's birthday party :D


DEAD MEAT

Not horror, and a lot of people really hate it, but you HAVE to check out the 1994 Street Fighter movie if you haven't seen it.

I'm not crazy about Van Damme, but he fits this one perfectly. Just over-the-top, mindless cartoony action - it'll never be mistaken for high art, but it's one of the most fun movies out there. Raul Julia makes a great villain, too.

I just watched Brainscan the other night,its pretty cheesy...
Beetlejuice is always fun too:)

Noted. I ll get that one.


Someone else told me about Brainscan too. Not sure who...anyhow, gonna get it. Beetlejuice is in for the Fest, probably around the last week or so. :)

I watched one last week that you'd probably like for something like this: The Mole People!

I guess MST3K did it once, but I thought it was super fun on its own. Pretty dumb, I'll admit, the the creatures are cool and the dude that played Alfred in the 1960's Batman is the main human villain :D

Funny how quickly the year went by...I still remember all those cheesy creature shitfests from last year.


Anyway, this year its gonna be action, baby. And lots of it.

Almost all of Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Willis, John Woo, Segal, Van Damme...and obscure 80s shit which I m sure many haven't even heard of (except maybe Elvis & Mothman).

Oh yes, there will be a re-toss in of The Matrix trio and Die Hard quadro too in there somewhere. But it will be mostly 80s (and some 90s) stuff. Gonna stretch the legs of this new Altec Lansing speakers I got.

Got any other good recs I need to queue?

Also, if you are a fan of cheesy, over-the-top 80s action flicks (like Elvis & Mothman), see if you can dig out some of this man's stuff - http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0379391/

You might want to include a few of these:

Wanted: Dead or Alive
Split Second
Blind Fury
Trancers
Fortress
Red Scorpion
Sniper
Best of the Best
A.P.E.X

I have Blind Fury and Sniper (including its sequels). Good time to give those a re-spin. Think Best of the Best is around here somewhere too...

Thanks for the recs, bud.

Not even getting into the obscure yet.


Why do you hate Dolph?

Universal Solider, The Punisher, and Dark Angel are all missing. Don't forget Fulci's The New Gladiators, Deadbeat at Dawn, or Cage. :)



Lady Terminator, The Drunken Master, 1990: Bronx Warriors...

Actually I forgot to mention - both Punisher movies are included. Have watched all 3 Universal Soldier movies recently so keeping them out. I ll see about including the Dolph one which John Woo made...forgetting the name right now (Blackjack?).

I have a couple of Fulci's westerns. Still need to get his fantasy flick.

Good ones. Reminds me to toss some of Jackie Chan's early stuff in there. Project A, Police Story...classic!

Got me planning an action night now for my friends, only we'll be cross generation and not as obscure. I still might make them sit through Cage though. ;)

Let us know if you find any crazy action flicks that aren't talked about often.

I've been meaning to grab a copies of Cage and Hero and the Terror for some time now. Some good stuff in there ___V___ should be a fun month.

Not sure how easy they are to track down but I'd recommend Ninja III: The Domination (Revenge of the Ninja is dope too), Blastfighter and Night of the Juggler.

I enjoyed watching Endgame recently it'd make a great double feature with The Running Man or Death Race 2000.

Maybe some Walter Hill stuff like Southern Comfort, Extreme Prejudice, The Driver and 48 Hrs?

Fixing The Shadow and Stone Cold were pretty cool undcover cop vs biker flicks.

I'll shut up now or I'll go on for ever :D

You need to. Hero and the Terror is a total blast.

The rental sold the Ninja movies to someone as blind-buys since they were apparently not making enough cash outta renting it. Whoever bought those and that Beverly Hills Ninja stuff is one lucky sob.

Sounds great, if it can stand beside Running Man & Death Race! I m gonna hunt that one down.

48 Hrs is in for sure. Nick Nolte was kickass.

Stone Cold the Brian Bosworth flick? I was kinda disappointed with that one. I got a few biker flicks when I bought Hell Ride - The Last Ride with Dennis Hopper, Biker Boyz, Wild Hogs...guess this is a good time as any to check em out.

Ah no way! Keep running your mouth and those recs coming! :)

Dagon
Doghouse
Day of the Beast
Godzilla Vs. Hedorah
Godzilla Vs. Mechagodzilla
Dead Alive aka Braindead... ("I kick ass for the Lord!")
...and see if you can get your hands on some old Tales from the Darkside episodes. Those were 110% cheeseball!
