I actually thought the remake was trashy fun, too. It's soooo stupid, but they knew it making it.

Thirst.

Cool mix of Frankenstein and Robocop that I thought was a entertaining watch. I've said it about a million times but not much beats flicks from the 80s. Pam Grier starred as a badassed henchwoman too. Yep, great stuff.

Do yourself a favor, DON'T!

The Mist
I thought some of the monster designs were really awe-inspiring and the ending was pretty depressing.

Turistas

Scary movie!

Take the plane!

Agree with Disease & V. Didn't like the remake also. The twist at the end of the remake was easily predictable but more than that the killer's reason for all the killings was very funny & ridiculous. On the other hand the original was as V said, time passing typical 80's slasher.

I hated that one.

I have to admit I am impressed. A really fresh approach and idea, nicely scripted and directed, believable characters and a very creepy setting.

My only gripe (and POSSIBLE HUGE SPOILERS) is how the heck did she learn to shoot so accurately??

Other than that, this is one modern times movie which has left an impression on me. The gripe aside, this one's good enough to get a solid 07/10, and my rec to all my friends here - Fort, Chrono, Return, Roshiq, Newb, NE, Psycho_d, Straker...see if you can pick this up.


* * * ½ stars.

Bah! You lucky duck.

Ditto. I have seen it few months ago & already recommended on last year's one of the top 10 horror films thread. A pretty well crafted circular plot indeed. George on the lead did a fine job also.

Regarding your spoiler note, I think on a creepy & weird situation like that--when everything is happening out of order at least something should click right,;)

Blood & Black Lace (1964)

Just for curiosity after watching this Bava's jewel on the crown, I was thinking have I seen any Giallo Spoof so far? And I couldn't remember any comedy that made about Giallo genre! Is there really any Giallo-spoof film actually been made? If there's any watchable ones, then please recommend me.

At the moment I'm trying to 'develop' a plot where the killer wears Black Burqa, black sunglasses & as usually black gloves & only likes to kill the nude models. The detective who is trying to solving the case is a great fan of Giallo films & start to suspect a reporter who's got some Giallo films in his collection that the detective even haven't seen yet. Later at the end, it reveals that all the murders were actually happened for a rare & stolen Giallo dvd that someone bought online.:D

This is from the guy who wrote/ directed Severance and Creep, isnt it? I've found both of those to be a bit hit and miss. Some nice elements to both of those, but they are weak in alot of areas too. Sounds like he might be getting it right now though. Will definatley have to give it a watch sometime soon.

Nope, can't say that I have...I adore comics, but have a real hard time keeping up with newer stuff. Honestly, I hadn't even heard much about them until the movie came out. Worth checking out, I presume?

Dead Alive (aka Braindead) hooray for Peter Jackson films haha

Yay! Great film. And I'd watch your giallo-spoof.

And V, I've added Triangle to my Netflix queue. Thanks for the rec, buddy.

A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985)

Absolute weakest film in the series.

No doubt about that VC.

Just watched The Offspring 2009

Complete waste of my time.I dont have anything bad to say about the writing,primarily because the acting was so horrible it would have stunk up a work by Shakespeare.Unconvincing performances from top to bottom..and is it too much to ask for an actor to actually APPEAR frightened when they are supposed to be? I am lost to any movie when I see men and women attempt to portray sheer terror and come of looking only slightly bewildered.

Thank you.:D

A must see no doubt. Great execution and dark dark dark.

Last seen:
Duck, You Sucker AKA A Fistful of Dynamite (1971). Sergio Leone may have just outdone himself with this film. A pooper at the box office, this is truly one of Leone's finest films. I must admit that it threatened to be otherwise, and about 1/3 of the way through it seemed to lose momentum. Looking back, it was only shifting gears from that of fun and silly entertainment to that of a serious movie making a profound statement. The acting was awesome, and Coburn's impressive skills were only overshadowed by a magnificent performance by Rod Steiger. Ernio Morricone's score brilliantly lent an emotional overtone, especially during the flashbacks that both gave answers and led to more questions. Duck, You Sucker is a perfect example of the coming of age of an ingenious director... Merci beaucoup.

I spit on your grave

I don't even know where to start with this movie.Disturbing yes!

SPOILERS
I thought the death scenes were a little more intense than the rape scenes though.The whole movie was a bit shocking though.

Walled In
The Children
Mirrors

The Watchman (2009). Meh. Everything about this flick screamed greatness. From production value, acting, to the story itself, a better film could nary be produced. Still, i did not like it, save for everything Rorchach.

Just got done wtahcing the last of all four Alien films.I actually enjoyed them all.

Gojira-brilliant

Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island


Well, technically my Daughter is watching the movie, but I'm with her and ,,well it's a fun movie and it is Scooby-Doo and uhh...Okay Dammit, I love Scooby Doo too! And I'm enjoying the film just as much as she is. There, I feel much better now

We just watched The Men Who Stare At Goats the other day. Meh. Wasn't great, but wasn't terrible either.

I was supposed to get Phantasm in the mail today from NetFlix, and they are never late when they e-mail what I have coming and when. Alas, no movie in the mail.:mad:

I've seen it dozens of times, but my wife never has...so, I must share it's cheesy goodness with her.

I really, honestly, found this movie to be a bit boring. Maybe it's just that after watching many films like this, this one lost the impact.

parts were a little stale,I figured I would watch it and see though,since it was on HDC's most disturbing list.I'm always testing myself with films,and I really thought Cannibal Holocaust was a lot worse than this one.

I get you there...personally I found the comic did a better job, I mean the movie had most of what needed to be there but yeah...I thought the effects were pretty damn good and GREAT in the case of Rorschachs mask, the tone was nice and dark and I thought it was decent.
I think a lot of the characters had ways of making you not like them though.

Dog Day Afternoon: Brilliant film. Shame we didn't get to see Cazale in more films, great peformance from a great actor. He and Pacino together is about as good as it gets.

I love the part where Pacino tells him "We can go to any country in the world, Sal. What country do you want to go to?"
Sal thinks long and hard and finally answers, "Minnesota..."

Brilliant line, which was an ad lib from Cazale. There was a fair amount of improv. work within the film.

I guess I'll be a pedantic asshole at this moment too and point out it was Wyoming and not Minnesota, but the line still works perfectly either way.

Haha- yah, it's been a while since I've seen it. Definitely one of my fave Pacino roles, and one of Lumet's greatest as well.

Watched this again yesterday with my Mom (shes 75) - really enjoyed it. My Ma thought it was great too. Shes not a big horror fan - she likes the Die HArd and Segal stuff more (as well as peroid drama like pride and prejudice)

^^ pics not showing for me.

psycom and i are watching Gentlemen Broncos and it's the best thing I have ever seen.
