Dead End Drive-In

Low budget Australian film from the 80's, set in the (then) not-too-distant future. The protagonist and his girlfriend visit the drive-ins one night, and their wheels are stolen by the police. This effectively traps them in the drive-in (because the fences are electrified and the only road out is forbidden for pedestrian traffic). They find that there is a society of people living "trapped" in the drive-in.

Not the greatest film, but at least it was original.

pretty good. check them out: http://criterion.com/asp/release.asp?id=134
the version in which william s. borroughs narrates the entire film is pretty cool, except they didn't clean up that version, so it doesn't look very good.

Urban Legends: Bloody Mary...

OH MY GOD. How did this get made? Predictable (and I don't mean you can guess one or two things minutes before they happen, I mean... you can guess the ENTIRE film within the first five minutes...) and unoriginal (how many bloody mary films have there been???) This adds nothing to the table except for the stuck-in-the-70's Gracie, some Pam Grier references, and a likable title theme. Horrible mess.

It's a very atmospheric movie (the soundtrack is perfect in helping capture the mood)

What she said, and..

Forgetting Sarah Marshall
2 Days in Paris

Two, pretty funny, relationship movies.

Ugh, how about when the boy is like "Hey black lady, let us in" and she doesn't, then he calls to her in some retard ghetto slang and she comes back? Worst part of that whole mess.

TMNT

Just a little too "for teenagers" for me to love, but it was pretty good. the naimation was great, and the raphael/leonardo roof scene was beautiful, probably the best rain i have seen in CGI.
