The American Nightmare

Best horror documentary I've ever seen. Really inspiring.
8.5/10



Full Tilt Boogie

Fun stuff, really interesting documentary about the making of From Dusk 'Till Dawn that becomes a tad self-indulgent at times. I would have loved to ahve been on that set - looked like making that movie was a ton of fun.
7/10

Yeah, it's a full-length feature doc and its real strength is that it focuses on the grips and A.D.s who really are the ones who make films happen.

My first expose to the work of Jacques Tati...and it certainly wont be my last. I haven't laughed this hard in a very, very long time.

Have you seen this one Alky? Seems right up your alley.

Blood Car

jenna26 10-10-2008 11:20 AM

Bloody Murder ~ I have no words.....:rolleyes: But I do find it kind of amusing that a film that has virtually no blood is called "Bloody Murder"

Dante'sInferno 10-10-2008 12:22 PM

Quarantine....



Something tells me I would have liked (REC) a hell of alot more.I hope I can find it soon.

Not yet. I try to watch 3 or 4 movies a week. That's about all I can squeeze in. My reviews of Spider and Subject 2 are a few pages back. They were the last 2 I watched.

Rayne 10-10-2008 05:30 PM

One Missed Call (Japanese version) and One Missed Call 2...Haven't had a chance to watch part 3 or the American version yet...Working on it

How so? What'd you think it'd be?

Disease 10-10-2008 06:37 PM

Well I thought it would be a bit more intense, and I was also expecting a great score... I just didn't feel it.

That was on TCM right after Jour de Fete, but I just couldn't force my eyes to stay open long enough. I shall have to track it down :)

quarantine (2008)

eh, it wasn't bad. it just seemed mostly lackluster after seeing the original.

however, what intrigued me most about seeing it was the reactions of the audience. it's clear to see the difference between american audiences and pretty much the rest of the world. the intent of the original filmmakers was left fairly intact (with a lot less hollywood-type tamperings than i anticipated), so what was meant to be terrifying in the original, or even genuinely creepy, was many times laughed at by the people in the theatre. i found the same phenomenon when i watched the funny games remake. obviously made with the same intent delivered on non-american audiences, the reactions in the small theatre in northern indiana in which i saw it ranged from nervous laughter to walking out to walking out and then back in, back out, back in, and so on to seemingly involuntary outspoken reasoning of the action onscreen (i.e. "why is he doing that? oh, it must be because _______. but wait! why in the world would they do that?! is it because _______." etc.). it was quite fascinating. of course, i myself am an american viewer, so why did i notice it? i don't know.

anyway, back to the film at hand:

save your money and rent it, unless you have no way of seeing the original right now.

neverending 10-10-2008 09:33 PM

I had the experience of seeing Eyes Without a Face at a small art theatre here in Portland with a mostly college crowd. The "sophisticated" college students were mostly laughing at the film and mocking it. I was appalled.

ugh.
i would literally kill a man for the chance to see that on the big screen.
there's a wonderful festival in chicago that i usually go to each year, and they're actually showing it this year. however, some serious financial problems are probably going to keep me from going (which really, really sucks).

anyway, that's unbelievable. it's a good thing 99.9999% of the films i see in theatres aren't as good as eyes without a face, otherwise i think i'd be very depressed.

regarding the spoiler quote, gore:















********SPOILER ALERT*********************


I KNOW! i had seen the original already when i saw the trailer for quarantine, and i could not believe they showed the ending! not that it's anything special, but still! it's the principle of the thing.



************END SPOILERS*********************




another unbelievable thing about my experience watching quarantine:

some stupid assholes actually brought their one-year old child in the theatre. the poor guy started wailing during every scary scene.

ugh, some people.

I think many of us already predicted this kinda outcome about this remake. Is it the fastest remake of a horror film? Huhh.
