A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors '87 :thumbsup: (Survivors of undead serial killer Freddy Krueger - who stalks his victims in their dreams - learn to take control of their own dreams in order to fight back.

Patricia Arquette's film debut.)

A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master '88 :thumbsup: (Freddy Krueger returns once again to terrorize the dreams of the remaining Dream Warriors, as well as those of a young woman who may know the way to defeat him for good.)

From Romero to Rome: The Rise and Fall of the Italian Zombie Movie '12 :thumbsup: (The history of Italian zombie cinema, beginning with the breakout worldwide influence and success of George Romero's Night of the Living Dead and continuing through to Lucio Fulci's trend-setting Zombie Flesh-Eaters [Zombi 2] and its many imitators.)

Airport (1970)-: Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin, Jean Seberg, Jacqueline Bisset, George Kennedy, Helen Hayes


I spotted Marion Ross as an airplane passenger! She had no dialogue and she was only on camera briefly. I looked up the cast on IMDB.com and that was Marion! (uncredited) I recognized her because in 1970 she had dark hair and I remember her on an episode of The Brady Bunch. Same hairstyle and color. If you blink you would miss her! It's fun watching these old movies and seeing actors before they were famous! :)


Here she is on Brady Bunch:D

Cry Freedom (1987) on VHS :thumbsup:

The film depicts the true story about the relationship betw. journalist David Woods and anti-apartheid activist Scott Biko.

It's one of Denzel Washington's earlier film roles.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child '89 :thumbsup: (Alice, having survived the previous installment of the Nightmare series, finds the deadly dreams of Freddy Krueger starting once again. This time, the taunting murderer is striking through the sleeping mind of Alice's unborn child. His intention is to be "born again" into the real world. The only one who can stop Freddy is his dead mother, but can Alice free her spirit in time to save her own son?

I hadn't watched this one since its theatrical release. Not as good as the previous installments, and also the effects- both visual, and special makeup, weren't as good as the previous films. But it still had some decent ideas. I especially liked the Aha Take On Me music video style dream sequence with the teen comic book artist, and the motorcycle scene.)

The Favor (1994)- Harley Jane Kozak, Elizabeth McGovern, Bill Pullman, Brad Pitt, Ken Wahl

Moulin Rouge!

- The French Chicago musical type, but considered tragic.
- both this movie and Black Hawk Down have:

* actor Ewan Mcgregor in it.
* won two 74th Academy Awards.

- Singer/Actress Mya who sang this movie theme song "Lady Marmalade" (with Christina Aguilera, P!nk and 'Lil Kim) also acted in Chicago.

Married to the Mob (1988) on VHS :thumbsup:

A widowed mob wife wants to escape the lifestyle and tries to avoid the crime boss and FBI pursuing her.

Was Oliver Platt's film debut.

Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare '91 :thumbsup: (Freddy Krueger returns once again to haunt both the dreams of his daughter and Springwood's last surviving teenager.

Definitely the worst of the franchise, but still had some interesting ideas- I liked the flashbacks learning about how Freddy became who he was. And I liked the idea of Springwood becoming a ghost town. And the final moments in 3D were fun.
Breckin Meyer's first film. Appearances from Alice Cooper, Johnny Depp, Roseanne Barr, Tom Arnold, and Elinor Donahue.)

Wes Craven's New Nightmare '94 :thumbsup: (It's nearing the 10th Anniversary of the film 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' and one of the stars, Heather Langenkamp is being scared by a voice on a phone, sounding very similar to the film's villain, Freddy Krueger. When Heather's husband is killed in a car accident and is discovered with slash marks on him, Heather starts to wonder something. Especially when she discovers that Wes Craven is writing another 'Nightmare' film. Soon, she realizes that Freddy has now entered the real world, and the only way to defeat him is to become Nancy Thompson once again.

This is easily my favorite sequel of the franchise.)

Body Heat(1981)- William Hurt, Kathleen Turner, Richard Crenna, Ted Danson, Mickey Rourke

That's a good one too.:)

Dark Was The Night '15 :thumbsup: (Isolated and threatened, a mysterious force hidden within the trees outside the small town of Maiden Woods, strikes fear in the townspeople as Sheriff Paul Shields attempts to overcome the demons of his past while protecting those that he loves.)

Yeah!! The lady doctor when the kids all had the measles!!!! :D Wasn't the male doctor Mr. Mitchell, from Dennis the menace? That was one of my favorite eps! :)

Down & Out in Beverly Hills

Starve '14 :thumbsup: (While researching an urban legend on feral children, three friends find themselves trapped in an abandoned high school, where they are confronted with an evil more sinister than the legend itself.)

Cinderella Liberty (1973)- James Caan, Marsha Mason, Kirk Calloway, Eli Wallach, Burt Young, Dabney Coleman, Bruno Kirby

Infinitely Polar Bear

I LOVED this movie. Mark Ruffalo is always terrific, but he was exceptionally phenomenal in this. Zoe Saldana was also great in it.

I also saw Paper Towns this weekend, which I enjoyed as well.

The Guest '14 :thumbsup: (A soldier introduces himself to the Peterson family, claiming to be a friend of their son who died in action. After the young man is welcomed into their home, a series of accidental deaths seem to be connected to his presence.)

LIttle house On The Prairie ( pilot ) 1974- Melissa Gilbert, Michael Landon, Lindsay Greenbush, Sidney Greenbush, Karen Grassle, Victor French, Melissa Sue Anderson


Some trivia; Michael Landon was to be the producer only but the actor hired to play Charles Ingalls was late so Michael played the part from then on.

Beetlejuice(1988)- Michael Keaton, Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Jeffrey Jones, Catherine O'Hara, Winona Ryder

Nightwish '89 :thumbsup: (A professor and four graduate students journey to a crumbling mansion to investigate paranormal activity and must battle ghosts, aliens and satanic entities.

Jack Starrett plays the professor- Starrett directed several movies in the 70's including the Peter Fonda/Warren Oates film Race With The Devil. It also features several familiar faces of 80's genre movies: Clayton Rohner, Elizabeth Kaitan, and Brian Thompson.)

Blackboard Jungle (1955) on VHS :thumbsup:

Glenn Ford plays a new teacher at an inner-city school where most of the students are juvenile delinquents. He gets no support from his fellow co-workers who think that there's no hope for these kids.



* The film marked the rock and roll revolution by featuring Bill Haley & His Comets' 'Rock Around the Clock' and reportedly caused young people to go into a frenzy at the theaters.

The film featured early roles of Sidney Poitier, Vic Morrow and Jamie Farr.

Great film! I haven't seen it in years!Their delinquincy looks like kindergarten compared to what is happening now days!:D The same goes for Rebel Without A Cause. Pretty tame stuff! I love those old movies!:)

Misery(1991)- James Caan, Kathy Bates, Wendy Bowers, Thomas Brunelle, Lauren Bacall, Richard Farnsworth, Frances Sternhagen:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

My favorite Kathy Bates performance, my second favorite of hers is another Stephen King adaptation- Delores Claiborne.

Yeah, relatively tame to what goes on today, except for the switchblade fights.

My favorite Kathy Bates performance, my second favorite of hers is another Stephen King adaptation- Delores Claiborne.

Delores Claiborne is on my movie agenda for tomorrow! Didn't Kathy Bates win an Academy Award for Misery? She was so good!:eek:

I believe she did.

She also made a cameo appearance in Stephen King's The Stand mini series as a DJ.

Ruthless People

I love that movie!!!!

I didnt know if I would ever be able to find a pure copy on VHS since all i could find was 'DIGITALLY PROCESSED' copies but thankfully I found an earlier release :)

I last watched "Wargames" (1983) on VHS :)

Miracles Still Happen '74 :thumbsup: (aka I miracoli accadono ancora; The true story of 17 year old Juliane Koepcke who on December 24, 1971 amazingly survived one of the most unbelievable adventures of our times. Flying from Lima, Peru on LANSA flight 508 to see her father for the New Year celebrations, Julianes plane hits a cyclone, is hit by lightning and breaks apart at 24,000 feet. Somehow, miraculously out of 92 passengers Juliane survives the plunge into the dense jungle only to find herself alone in the hostile world of the South American Amazon Rain Forest filled with snakes, insects and wild animals. There her tormented battle to find civilization begins.

- Most of this movie's cast is comprised by the people who actually "lived" the Juliane Koepcke story...including pilot Clyde Peters, the nun at the hospital, and the wood-cutters who found and rescued Juliane. The exceptions are Susan Penhaligon, the actors who portray Juliane's parents and, naturally, the crew and other passengers of the ill-fated airliner.

- In 2000, Werner Herzog released a documentary titled Wings Of Hope, where he and the real life Juliane Koepcke visit the crash site and recreate her journey through the jungle.
Herzog made the documentary because he was originally going to be on the flight for location scouting.)

Toro, how did you see that film? The Magnetic Video version from 1979? That was the only time this film was released on video stateside. Both that and Welcome to Arrow Beach were produced by Brut Productions.

One of the first films for Britain's Susan Penhaligon. This film was also, as I understand, a staple on KTLA here in Los Angeles every Christmas.

Watched it off the Internet, and the copy I watched was the Magnetic Video release.

Welcome To Arrow Beach is really good too. Though you have to be careful to find the uncut version, as there's a version floating around that removed all hints of cannibalism from the film, which basically makes the film pointless.

Delores Claiborne( 1995)-Kathy Bates, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Christopher Plummer, David Strathairn, John C. Reilly

Children Of Men:

- Better than Constant Gardener.
- Not as great as The Last King Of Scotland.

Murder at 1600 (1997) on DVD :thumbsup:

A White House secretary is found murdered inside a bathroom stall at The White House and a D.C. homicide detective is sent to investigate. He faces many road blocks as the CIA protects The President's family and refuses his access to classified documents/employee records.

Based on the novel of the same name written by Margaret Truman, daughter of U.S. President Harry S. Truman.

Torgo, one other thing about Miracles Still Happen:

Susan Penhaligon was quite the brave young girl when she made this picture. According to IMDB, she did all of her own stunts for this film, up to and including the numerous swims she goes for in the Amazon River.

And she did a very convincing job of playing someone who is starved, lonely and lost. Which is what kept me watching the movie, the plane crash, lets just say, wasn't very realistic, I understand it was budget constrains, but, a model plane looks like a model plane, and when they blew it up, it looked like kids blowing up their models with firecrackers. But all of the rest was well done.

The Return of the Living Dead (1985) on Blu-ray :thumbsup:

One of my favorite zombie flicks. It's well-known for Linnea Quigley's cemetery dance scene and for revealing the reason why zombies eat brains - "it makes the pain of being dead go away."

The zombies here are more intelligent than what some other zombie movies show. They are able to speak and are consciously aware they are dead.

"Send more paramedics"

One of my favorites too.

If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend the documentary: More Brains! A Return to the Living Dead.

I see that it's online so I may watch it sometime soon... There's also a stand-alone DVD release, but I'll wait to see if the upcoming SCREAM Factory release will include it. It will be great if they do.

There's also the book The Complete History of The Return of the Living Dead that came out in 2010.

I'll definitely get it if they do, then again I want it on Blu Ray, so I'll get the Collector's Edition anyway.

I haven't read that book yet.

I did read Russo's novelization of Night Of The Living Dead and Return Of The Living Dead, which was combined as one book. I'm not sure how many drafts Russo and Streiner wrote before O'Bannon did his rewrites. But in this it reads as more of a continuation of Night, and even carries over the sheriff from Night. I didn't see much of a resemblance in it to the movie by O'Bannon.

American Mary '12 :thumbsup: (The allure of easy money sends Mary Mason, a medical student, into the world of underground surgeries which ends up leaving more marks on her than her so called 'freakish' clients.)

Romy and Michele's High School Reunion(1997)- Mira Sorvino, Lisa Kudrow, Janeane Garofalo, Alan Cumming, Julia Campbell

Gangs of New York

- Actor Leonardo Di Carpio:

* with actor John C. Reilly and director Martin Scorcse are members of this movie and The Aviator.

* with director Martin Scorsce only are members in these other movies:

+ The Departed
+ Shutter Island

Last time i watched Frankensteins Army (2013). This movie is quite good, worth watching, steam-punk gore-horror low budget but well made.

Miss Congeniality(2000)- Sandra Bullock, William Shatner, Ernie Hudson, Michael Caine, Candice Bergen

Vacation

Master And Commander: The Far Side

- both actors Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany both appeared in this movie and A Beautiful Mind.

Vacation


Do you mean the original. Or the new one that is out now? I'm seriously thinking of seeing it, but IDK I'd like to hear some feedback on it before I go , cause movies are expensive ! :eek:

The new one. Sorry, I didn't think to specify, lol. I liked it. It definitely had its moments. It wasn't something that I laughed out loud all the way through or anything. Other people in the theater definitely enjoyed it more than I did, but I'd say it's worth a watch, especially if you're a fan of the other films. It was more raunchy overall than the other films, though.

Yeah! I'm very easily amused,:lol: so silly comedy makes me laugh when a lot people think it's dumb. So most likely I would like it.;) But it might be a scenario like your friends. My friend that I do movies with isn't really into comedies per se, unless they are really funny. She will most likely rather go for something else unless I can convince her it will be really funny! ;)

I loved all four of the Vacation movies. There were four right? And the concept of now it's the son and his family, a new generation of Griswolds seems kind of cool! :) I wish Cousin Eddie/Randy Quaid was in this though. He was my all time favorite character I think! :lol:

I am also easily amused and the sillier the better for me the movie is. :lol: There have been 4 original Vacations with Chevy Chase and they were all pretty funny in my opinion. I will be giving this new one a chance, maybe when it goes to the discount movie theater in my area.

Fritz The Cat '72 :thumbsup: (Fritz is a college-age cat who dabbles in drugs, radical politics, and hedonism. Film traces Fritz's sexual and political exploits from an East Village pot party to an orthodox synagogue.

Ralph Bakshi's first full length animated feature.
The first animated film to receive an X-rating.
Fritz The Cat creator Robert Crumb was so against the film being made that he sued to have his name removed, and killed off Fritz The Cat in hopes it would stop anymore films being made.)


The Nine Lives Of Fritz The Cat '74 :thumbsup: (Down on his luck Fritz The Cat recalls his past nine lives.

Though not as good as the original, mainly due to the lack of Ralph Bakshi's involvement. I still find it entertaining.)

The Culling '15 :thumbsdow (A group of college friends on a road trip find themselves fighting off dark forces at a remote farmhouse after a chance encounter with a strange little girl.

Was this an evil child flick? Was this a haunted house movie? Was this a feral children out in the woods flick? Was this a demon possession movie? Was this a creepy doll flick? All of the above...I think. So many things happened, and so little of it was explained when we got to the scene at the end of the film where the villain explains everything to the victims. Too bad as it had some interesting ideas.)

Bleed (2002) on DVD :thumbsup:

A troubled woman wants to be accepted and goes to a pool party to meet her new boyfriend's friends. They tell her about their Murder Club where you have to kill someone to become a member.

She doesn't realize it's a joke and actually murders someone.



* The film features cameos by Lloyd Kaufman, Brinke Stevens, Julie Strain and her half-sister Lizzy Strain.

The film was made under the short-lived Shadow Entertainment label. Charles Band's Full Moon company was in a deal w/ Blockbuster Video at the time and they wanted Full Moon to do a slasher movie. Band felt that a slasher movie really wasn't what Full Moon was about, so they created a new label for Bleed.

Only a handful of movies were produced under the Shadow Entertainment label.

The new one. Sorry, I didn't think to specify, lol. I liked it. It definitely had its moments. It wasn't something that I laughed out loud all the way through or anything. Other people in the theater definitely enjoyed it more than I did, but I'd say it's worth a watch, especially if you're a fan of the other films. It was more raunchy overall than the other films, though.

Vacation


I just saw it this afternoon. I'm gonna have to give it a thumbs down. I was disappointed! :( Wasn't nearly as good as any of the other vacation movies. I chuckled a couple times but that was about it! :confused: Not corny, goofy funny like I like and if a few sex jokes are in it's fine. This was just way to raunchy and not even very funny raunchy IMO! :confused:

My friend didn't like it either, and I was the one who talked her into seeing this.:rolleyes: I promised her she could pick the next movie we see! ;)

The Hobbit (Part 1 of 3)--An Unexpected Journey.

Demons '85 :thumbsup: (aka Dèmoni.
A group of people are trapped in a large movie theater in West Berlin that is infected by ravenous demons who proceed to kill and posses the humans one-by-one, thereby multiplying their numbers.

All the times I've watched this movie I never realized the boy that shows up at the end is the same boy that played Bob in Lucio Fulci's The House By The Cemetery.)

Mystic River (2003) on DVD :thumbsup:

* Based on the novel by Dennis Lehane and directed by Clint Eastwood, who also composed the film's score.

Sean Penn and Tim Robbins won the Oscar for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor, making the film the first to win both awards since Ben-Hur in 1959.

It featured the film debut of a young Connor Paulo and Emmy Rossum played the murdered girl.

Demons 2 '86 :thumbsup: (A group of tenants and visitors are trapped in a 10-story high-rise apartment building infested with demons who proceed to hunt the dwindling humans down.

I still don't like the looks of the demons in this one. Green faces? And the little Ghoulie-looking demon is too silly for this type of film. But other than that, it's a lot of fun. I also love the soundtrack which features songs from The Smiths, The Cult, Love And Rockets, Gene Loves Jezebel, and this film introduced me to one of my favorite bands- Fields Of The Nephilim.

Asia Argento's film debut, I think she was about 11.)

Millenium (1989), starting Kris Kristofferson.

Gas Pump Girls '79 :thumbsup: (June and her friends take over a service station formerly run by her uncle. They perform every trick in the book to attract the customers.

Fun mindless teen sex comedy. A little too much disco music, but hey, that was the times. Besides, where else can you hear a gas pump themed disco song?

Lots of familiar faces including:

Kirsten Baker - most famous for playing Terry in Friday The 13th Part 2

Rikki Marin - who appeared in most of the Cheech & Chong movies, and wrote and produced Cheech & Chong's The Corsican Brothers.

Also Ken Lerner, Steven Bond, and Dennis Bowen [Who I thought was hilarious in the 70's cruising/teen sex comedy Van Nuys Blvd. ]

And some veteran comic actors- Huntz Hall, Joe E Ross, Dave Shelley, Mike Mazurki.)

Re watch...

Jennifer '78 :thumbsup: (On Blu Ray. Ostracized at a snooty private school because of her rural, poor background, a scholarship student is tormented to the point where her only remaining recourse is revenge, using the only method she knows: her psychic control over snakes!

This is one of the better Carrie rip-offs. Instead of having telekinetic powers, Jennifer has powers over snakes which ties into her religious background. Instead of an overbearing religious mother, here it's an overbearing religious father. Bert Convy plays the sympathetic teacher. Lisa Pelikan is good as Jennifer. But who really steals the show is Amy Johnston as the leader of the mean girls who torment Jennifer. Amy's Sandra makes Nancy Allen's Chris seem like Snow White. Definitely one of my favorite horror movie mean girl performances.
70's teen heart-throb, Land Of The Lost Star Wesley Eure plays one of Sandra's boyfriend's cronies.)

Taking it upon himself to solve the case, he teams up with an unlikely ally, Greta, and the two set out to find the culprit lurking in their small suburban town. But as Clinton searches for the truth, he begins to uncover a conspiracy that goes far deeper than he anticipated.

Fear X (2003) on DVD :thumbsup:

A mall security guard is obsessed w/ finding out who killed his wife at the mall parking lot where he works. He spends every moment of free time going through surveillance video footage, articles, photos... anything he can find about the incident.

The police come to him w/ new information about the case which just grows his obsession.

Pure Country(1991)- George Strait, Isabel Glasser, Lesley Ann Warren, Kyle Chandler, John Doe, Rory Calhoun

The Cabining '14 :thumbsdow (Todd and Bruce, a hapless horror screenwriting duo, head to a remote artists' retreat seeking inspiration. Instead, they find death and deception, as, one by one, the other artists get knocked off, each in a more gruesome way than the last. The morbid atmosphere proves perfect for Todd's writing, but will he live to finish the script?

I normally like these kinds of movies, and I assume they were trying to make a film that's a cross between The Cabin In The Woods, and Tucker And Dale Vs Evil. Unfortunately, the two lead characters I found dull and unlikable, so it was hard to enjoy the film.)

Penny Johnson Jerald, Mila Kunis and Zakes Mokae have very small roles.

Another one of my favorites.:)

Seth Green, Ami Dolenz, Peter Scolari, Clint and Rance Howard, Alfonso Ribeiro.

Still impressed by the special effects, both make-up and creature. Thanks to Doug Beswick who was the head effects artist, and this film was based on a screenplay he wrote in the 70s. Beswick of course was the head animator for the Davey & Goliath TV show.

Missed out on the Blu Ray, now it's going for about $60)

Director Blake Edwards and Mickey Rooney both expressed regret on the character of "Mr. Yunioshi" decades later. They said that it wasn't their intention to cause such outrage and that they never would have done it had they known how the character would be received.

Noises Off! (1992) on VHS :thumbsup:

The film is based on the play of the same name and features a second-rate theatrical troupe preparing for a Broadway play w/ little direction. They constantly forget lines, miss cues and mishandle the props.

Also, their personal problems and backstage drama (one actor is an alcoholic) causes petty squabbling and they lash out on stage.



The film featured the final role of Denholm Elliott.

One of the funniest movies I've seen.

Possessing uncanny magical prowess and miraculous psychic abilities, the peculiar, but seemingly benevolent, visitor quickly gains a spell-binding hold over the senator and his family. But a power-lusting political backer is also vying for control over the up-and-coming senator. And he would kill the influential stranger, without question, for that power. But he and the senator are about to be enlightened.)

It specifies that she will inherit her father's estate on the condition that she stay in his creepy palatial mansion for seven nights in a row.

Connie Stevens, Dean Jones, Cesar Romero, Parley Baer. Directed by William Conrad.

IMDB has it listed as Mystery Horror, I would put it more as a comedy romance with mystery. Dean Jones and Connie Stevens were good together.)

Sid Cesar, Vera Miles, Barry Gordon, John McGiver, Jesse White, Mary Wickes, John Astin, Harvey Lembeck, Directed by William Castle.

Fun family haunted house movie. Sid Cesar is great as a father at the end of his rope, Barry Gordon is good as the teenage son trying to get an adult to believe that he isn't the cause of all the destruction around the house but bickering ghosts.)

True Story (2015) on Blu-ray :thumbsup:

The film is based on the true story about the relationship betw. journalist Mike Finkel and convicted murderer Christian Longo.

In late 2001, Christian Longo murdered his wife and three children and dumped their bodies around the docks of coastal town Newport, Oregon. He then fled to Cancun and told people he was NY Times journalist Mike Finkel.

The real Mike Finkel was going through his own problems when it was discovered that he was falsifying details on a big story and was let go. He then finds out about the murderer who was using his name and meets w/ him in jail to get his side of the story.

They both have selfish reasons for their meetings as Longo wants to use the discredited journalist to make his court testimony more believable and Finkel sees this as a way of getting back into the good graces of his journalist colleagues.


The film is more enjoyable if you are familiar w/ the actual story. I've seen it on several True Crime shows.

Chances Are (1989)-Ryan O'Neal, Robert Downey, Cybill Shepherd, Mary Stuart Masterson

Sledgehammer '83 :thumbsup: (Seven friends get together to enjoy a crazy weekend in the mountains, drinking and partying to their hearts content. The house they rent for the weekend, though, is keeping a dark secret: years ago, a young boy murdered his mother and her lover inside the house. Unbeknownst to the group, a shape-shifting evil still lurks within the walls of the secluded mountain home, waiting to be unleashed.

The Boy '15 :thumbsup: (Ted Henley and his father operate a floundering family business—The Mt. Vista Motel. It’s just the two of them since Ted’s mother ran off with a guest years earlier, stealing the motel’s soul and one of its last regular patrons. Since then, Ted’s father has drifted into despondency—becoming a living ghost, haunting his own motel and leaving Ted to fend for himself. In his isolation, unchecked by the bounds of parenting, friendship, or affection, Ted's fascination with death awakens.

Brilliant. This is supposed to be the first movie in a trilogy. The first about the boy when he's 9, the second 13, and the third 18.

Warhorse

The Unauthorized Full House Story (2015) :thumbsdow

There were many things inaccurate about it that even a casual fan would notice... such as the Olsen twins being older when they first started on the show and the set being in reverse.

There wasn't really anything here worth making an "unauthorized" story about... there was nothing controversial going on.

The only thing I liked was the guy who played Bob Saget.

To be fair though, I like that the new actors all look a lot like the original actors did back then.

Oh my gosh! I did!:eek: I don't know how I missed that! She is such an unforgettable character! Sorry Ms Gordon :( :blush:

She was one of the greats. Loved her in my all time favorite movie Harold And Maude.

Ruth Gordon was also in Rosemary's Baby, the first of Roman Polanski's two American pictures.

She was one of the greats. Loved her in my all time favorite movie Harold And Maude.


She was delightfully frightening in Rosemary's Baby.

Also she was a hoot playing Kirk Devane's grandmother on Newhart:D

The Burkittsville 7 '00 :thumbsup: (A film archivist goes back to revisit the story of Rustin Parr. He was a hermit thought to have murdered seven children while possessed by the spirit of the Blair Witch in the 1940s. The film also shows what happened to the eighth Burkittsville child who escaped from Rustin Parr and his life as an adult in a mental institution, whom the film archivist thinks was the one truly responsible for the murders.

Of the three made for TV Blair Witch documentaries, this is probably my favorite.)

Yes, she was fantastic in that as well. And Penny, I totally forgot she played Kirk's grandmother!

Shadow Of The Blair Witch '00 :thumbsup: (In this true-crime documentary, we delve into the murder spree that was the inspiration for Joe Berlinger's "Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2."

Mistress America
A Walk in the Woods

Happy Kamp '14 :thumbsdow (Great premise, a small town where there's been an unusually high disappearance rate of children over the years, and the lead returns home to try to find out what really happened to his brother who vanished when they were kids. The scenes with the main characters searching the seemingly empty town was kind of creepy. But the reveal of what has been causing the disappearances and the poor CGI totally killed the film.
Produced by Drew Barrymore.)

Don't Blink (2014) on DVD :thumbsdow

A group of friends arrive at a secluded mountain resort to find it completely deserted. Upon investigation they find that there's no sign of life at all as there are no animals around either.

With no gas for the return trip, the friends are forced to stay and investigate the mystery until help arrives. They soon discover that people start to literally vanish when all eyes are taken off of them.

This was ok, but it's one of those movies where things aren't explained at all. I'm not into those type of films.

Make-Out With Violence '08 :thumbsup: (Twin brothers Patrick and Carol Darling, newly graduated from high school and struggling to come to terms with the mysterious disappearance of their friend, the bright and beautiful Wendy Hearst. When a drive through the countryside surrounding their suburban community leads to the discovery of Wendy's mysteriously animated corpse, the boys secretly transport the un-dead Wendy to an empty house in hopes of somehow bringing her back to life. As the sweltering summer pushes on, they must maintain the appearance of normalcy for their friends and family as they search for ways to revive the Wendy they once knew, or, failing that, to satisfy their own quests for love amongst the living and the dead.

I really enjoyed this one. Especially liked the soundtrack and look of the film.)

Don't Torture a Duckling (1972) on DVD :thumbsup:

Many young boys are found murdered in the small Southern Italian village of Accendura. Suspicions follow the local village idiot and a woman shunned for her interest in witchcraft.

An investigative reporter thinks there's much more to the case and clashes w/ the authorities over it.



* The film received a very limited release in Europe due to its controversial content and criticism of the Catholic Church. It didn't get released in the U.S. until it came to video and DVD in 1999.

Director/Writer Lucio Fulci said that this film was his personal favorite among his own work.



(Features Florinda Bolkan, Barbara Bouchet, Tomas Milian, Irene Papas, Georges Wilson)

James, wasn't the English dub of Don't Torture a Duckling already completed during the 1970's? So it seems like they did have plans of bringing it overseas.

Yes, the English dubbing was done but the film never made it here until years later on video.

Into The Woods

- I know it wasn't that great, but hey listen, no perfection is allowed along the way in this movie.

- When there is a big accidental emergency going on in all tales in one blow, just adjust and start a new beginning.

Happily Ever After (1990) on VHS :thumbsup:

The film works as an unofficial sequel to Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The story picks up shortly after the Wicked Queen's death and the prince bringing Snow White back to life.

The Wicked Queen's evil brother, Lord Maliss, returns to her castle and vows revenge against Snow White and the prince. Snow White gets help from her new friends "The Dwarfelles" who are the female cousins of the seven dwarfs.



* This was the final production from the Filmation animation studio. They were experiencing huge financial losses in the late 1980s and the company was sold to an investment firm operated by L'Oréal cosmetics.

Happily Ever After's U.S. theatrical release was delayed until 1993 mainly due to lawsuits w/ The Walt Disney Company. They could not use any characters from the Disney film and those w/ the same name had to look drastically different.

Happily Ever After was expected to be a huge hit but it flopped. They launched toy figures and a video game for the Super NES to coincide w/ the film's release.

Haunting Desires (2004) on DVD :thumbsup:

This is one of those late-night soft-core Skinemax flicks w/ laughable special FX and cheesy acting.

The "plot" features a crime reporter teaming up w/ a grumpy old detective investigating the elite "Underworld" club that runs as a vampire den. The club's main purpose is just to show lots of strippers, sex and S&M action.



Male porn star Evan Stone plays the club owner and Jay Richardson, who I know from Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers and Witchcraft II, plays the detective. This remains as his last role, though he did appear in the 2011 docu. Screaming in High Heels: The Rise & Fall of the Scream Queen Era.

That filmed showed just how much Hollywood was changing. It dealt with a much older man, having desire for an underage teenage girl.

This trend of an older man with a desire for an underage teenage girl and vice versa, has since become a recurring plot element in future Hollywood films. However, it was much more common during the 1970's and 1980's, than it is now.

Creep '14 :thumbsup: (Aaron answers an online ad and drives to a stranger's house to film him for the day. The man wants to make a movie for his unborn child, but his requests become more bizarre as the day goes along.)

Evil Things '09 :thumbsup: (On January 9, 2009, five college students left New York City for a weekend in the country. 48 hours later, all five students have simply vanished without a trace. There were no leads and no evidence - until now.)

Haunting Desires (2004) on DVD :thumbsup:

This is one of those late-night soft-core Skinemax flicks w/ laughable special FX and cheesy acting.

The "plot" features a crime reporter teaming up w/ a grumpy old detective investigating the elite "Underworld" club that runs as a vampire den. The club's main purpose is just to show lots of strippers, sex and S&M action.

I've also seen Jay pop up in one of those lawyer helpline commercials.

An Eye for an Eye

Playdate (2012) on DVD :thumbsup:

A suburban family befriends the single mother and her 2 sons that moved in next door to them. After their daughter is "accidentally" hurt on a playdate, the mom digs deeper and uncovers something sinister in the family's past.

Was a Lifetime movie that originally aired April 28, 2012.

Tusk (2014) on Blu-ray :thumbsup:

A podcaster is abducted by a crazy retired seaman who is obsessed w/ turning people into walruses. This movie was entertaining but ridiculous as all hell.

Kevin Smith says that he got the idea for the film after reading an online ad where a guy was offering free room and board on the condition that the roommate dress as a walrus. He shared the story on his weekly podcast (SModcast) and he then had everyone telling him to make a movie based on this.

The ad was actually posted by Chris Parkinson, a UK prankster, and Smith had him come on board the film as a producer.




(Features Justin Long, Michael Parks, Génesis Rodríguez, Haley Joel Osment, Johnny Depp)

Tusk is intended to be the 1st of a trilogy. The 2nd film, Yoga Hosers, will star Johnny Depp's Tusk character and most of the Tusk cast members in different roles. Smith hasn't revealed when the movie will be released but he did say that principal photography finished in January 2015.

Bullets Over Broadway

- more violence on shooting and frustrated screaming colliding each other in intersection.
- gangster gunfire crashing through Broadway plays during 1929 stock market crash.

Saw" The Visit " in the theatre yesterday! Two thumbs up .My friend and I both liked it. It was a hoot! It was a horror movie and had it's scary moments but also funny moments too in morbid kind ofway!

Becca (Olivia DeJonge) and younger brother Tyler (Ed Oxenbould) say goodbye to their mother as they board a train and head deep into Pennsylvania farm country to meet their maternal grandparents for the first time. Welcomed by Nana (Deanna Dunagan) and Pop Pop (Peter McRobbie), all seems well until the siblings start to notice increasingly strange behavior from the seemingly charming couple. Once the children discover a shocking secret, they begin to wonder if they'll ever make it home.

Apocalyptic '14 :thumbsup: (Journalist Jodie Black and her cameraman Kevin Horner head deep into unclaimed forest land in a bid to uncover the truth surrounding a bizarre doomsday cult, the 'Bytherainians'. What they discover is shocking beyond their wildest imaginings.

Really enjoyed this found footage. I'm a sucker for movies involving cults, this one is along the same lines as Ti West's The Sacrament, and Children Of Sorrow.
The actor that played the cult leader was extremely creepy.)

Lost After Dark '14 :thumbsup: (A group of teenagers looking to party get stranded when their ride breaks down, and end up being stalked by a cannibalistic killer.

Fun throwback to 80's slashers. They did a pretty good job of making it look like it was made in the 80's. The eye gouging scene rivals that of the one in Fulci's Zombie.)

I think this is one of the rare times we disagree on horror movies. I just did not like it. And it's the type of film I normally like. And I do like Justin Long and Michael Parks. I though Johnny Depp was extremely annoying. Think I'll be skipping the movie that has that character as the lead.
I did like the scene with Smith and Depp's daughters, they were hilarious.

I'm not saying that Tusk is one of the best, but I found it entertaining due to the ridiculousness of the plot. It took me a few minutes to recognize Depp as I don't think it was advertised that he was appearing in the film. He used an alias, his Tusk character's name, for the credits.

Yeah, the two girl clerks were hysterical and they're going to be starring in the 2nd film w/ Depp.

The Scarlet Letter (made for PBS 1979)- Josef Sommer, Meg Foster, Elisa Erali, John Heard, Kevin Conway

In the early 2010s, "The New Founding Fathers of America" have established a new annual event, "The Purge", which occurs on March 21 to 22, in which all crime is legal, and all police, fire and medical emergency services remain unavailable for 12 hours, from 7 pm till 7 am the next day.

The purge has resulted in crime and unemployment rates plummeting to 1% and a strong economy. The reason it is allowed is to give people the chance to release their inner demons, to "purge" them of their hatred. In reality, it is used as a method of artificial population control, as the people living in poor areas are usually the main targets.







The Purge (2013)

The first film focuses on a suburban family where the husband is a top salesman for elaborate security systems designed specifically for Purge night. Their young son spots a helpless stranger running for his life and he allows him to enter the house for safety.

A gang of educated youth out on "the purge" want the family to give up the stranger to them as he is their target and the family struggles w/ what to do.







The Purge: Anarchy (2014)

The second film picks up a couple of years later and focuses on various strangers forced to work together during Purge night.

A married couple's car breaks down right as Purge commences and they run into town to hideout. Also, a waitress and her daughter's apt. are overrun by a para-military group and they escape when a man out on his own personal revenge mission saves their lives.

The gang survives intense fights w/ other Purgers while the private military group is after them.




* The 3rd film is set for a July 1, 2016 release.
