Another Will Ferell movie that is disspointing, it has it's moments, but the supporting cast aka Wooden Harrelson let it down.

5/10

Ilsa - Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks (1976)

>>: C-

not in the least

I highly, highly, highly disagree

So do I. I find it almost unwatchably bad.

----

Step Brothers (2008)

Okay, I've got to say, I loved this. It was laugh-out-loud-(stupid)-funny.

Pineapple Express (2008)

I was really looking forward to this one, but it was dissapointing. It just wasn't very funny.

Can i join the club?

Kill, Baby...Kill!

Only my 2nd Bava movie, but so far I'm loving his work. Super atmospheric and awesome use of light/colour/shadow - can't wait to dig in to more of his stuff.


Horror in the Attic / The Attic Expeditions

Very Lynch-ian little horror flick...surprisingly well acted for a zero budget flick, though it does have some big-ish names: Jeffery Combs, Seth Green (who was amazing in this one), Ted Raimi...and a fun little Alice Cooper cameo.

It's really, really strange, low budget and doesn't make much sense...but I found myself really enjoying it.

Of course!

awesome!
i'm really glad to hear you're getting into bava.
he's done some amazing work.

i'm not sure what other film of his you watched, but check out:

• black sunday
• black sabbath
• blood and black lace
• danger: diabolik

Excellent..

what about airheads? :p

Ugh...

I'm a metal head and i really disliked it. Just as much after a second try.

No fun at all.

i dont think i've seen that one.

(if i did it didnt leave much of an impression)

The Bucket List. Enjoyed it a lot. good performances around, but its morgan freeman and jack nicholson, so its hard to get a bad one.

Nice uplifting ending. Makes you feel a little more comfortable with the thought that you wont be around forever.

Sounds good.

Looking forward to it already.

-The Fly 2 With Commentary.
-Hellraiser With Commentary.
-Vanilla Sky.
-The Majestic.

I was a very worth while watch.

Although, the first thing i thought of when it started was "DO the script writers know ahead of time that Morgan Freeman will be in it, so they make his character the narrator?"

Seriously, off the top of my head, Million Dollar Baby, The Shawshank Redemption and The Bucket List, all starring morgan freeman and narrated by Morgan Freeman (not that I am complaining, just observing)

Yes, yes you were.

March of the Penguins too. Or did you not notice he played one of the penguins?

...:o oops...

That little t has been looking for a way to embarrass me for weeks now....

Nah, you're a closeted exhibitionist. I just know it. :p

The only other one I've seen so far is Black Sabbath, which was awesome. I've also seen I Vamipri - he didn't direct, but he did cinematography. Very cool movie...I'd recommend checking it out if you haven't.

I'll keep an eye out for those other movies for sure - I've got Black Sunday in the boxset I bought a little while back, but I'll try to grab the rest :)

You're gonna love Black Sunday, man.
Sooo moody and dark.

I was talking about dying.

But okay, i guess i can give the movie a watch if you insist.

Last night I revisited Night of the Living Dead and it was at good as the first time I see it.. I love the scene sort of towards the beginning where the Flesheater is trying to get into the car and trying to break the window.. that scene still holds up.. the feeling of entrapment is awesome there..

the night before I watched Wes Craven's "The People Under the Stairs". . i had never seen it.. and I found it to be a little disappointing.. Kind of like Home Alone meets Horror.. i just couldn't be scared when the lead is a little kid.. He did alright on the acting, but some of his lines were super weak... And not a lot of frights in it... I did love the opening with the Tarot Cards though..

I think the Next thing I am going to revisit is The Thing... which I haven't seen in a while.. and then any suggestions for a movie.. with say around a 300,000 or under budget.. that is actual good... any suggestions???

I highly, highly, highly disagree with your disagreement.



The Hogfather

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

A movie i'll always enjoy - but it's too low key for the audiences of today.
Too subtle, not enough payoff.

but it's a perfect reflection of my favorite cinematic period (late 60's - to mid 70's)

I always wanted to see "The People Under the Stairs" because it has a ridiculously good title (honestly), but I've heard it's pretty bad, so I've stayed away.

As for indie horror flics (I honestly have very little frame of reference for how much movies cost in general, so I am going to read "<= $300,000" to mean "indie"), I suggest:

• Session 9 - Brilliant little gem shot in Danvers, MA asylum which is about an hour away from where I live
• Mulberry St - Fantastic little infection movie from the After Dark horror fest. Obviously low budget, but I think that the direct does well with limited funds
• Crazy Eights - Also from After Dark horror fest. Solid little ghost story.
• May - Ridiculously good horror character piece. Wish I got more cult attention.
• Murder Party - Ridiculously low budget, but fantastic. Funny and legitimately horrifying toward the end.
• The Signal - Brilliantly gritty. Definitely worth a watch.

I think i am going to try and find Murder Party... I really appreciate the suggestions... I am shooting a Party Scene for my short next month.. so this might give me some reference material.. hopefully I can get to the whole list soon.. I had already seen Crazy Eights.. and thought it was fairly decent.. .

so thanks.. Hopefully my local video store has it.. I hate blockbuster...

I love this movie too... William Goldman is a brilliant writer... Penning this and Princess Bride... he makes it on my favorite writer list.. I love the fucking ending.. I think more movies should do that style ending...

what do you guys feel about the lead character dying in a horror movie?

I got it through Netflix... Not sure how big a distribution it got, though...

I thought May was great, there are a lot of folks here who LOVE it... and one who hates it with every fiber of his being.

He's not here anymore.

The May horde drew him away.

Alright.. so May and Murder Party.. got it..

I used to have netflix, but my roommates already have Blockbuster online... and it drives me crazy because One blockbuster doesn't have shit for a catalogue.. and my roommates take blockbuster's "recommendations" for them.. which include shit like Drilbit Taylor, and Stepping UP''' ... I have to go back to netflix... peace..

yeah - but his taste is in his ass anyway.


May is a great film ..

Angela Bettis is a very talented lady.
