Love batteries not included.

Dimnos Oct 25th, 2010 11:55 AM

I would pay to see that porn. :lol

Ex Leper Oct 25th, 2010 12:30 PM

Suck (2009): I thought it was pretty good & i really enjoyed the music. The only thing that I though sucked about this movie is the trailer.

Shadowdancer21b Oct 25th, 2010 01:35 PM

Batteries not Included is so heartwarming and family friendly. I watched it all the time as a kid.

A friend of mine sent me a movie called "Virginia Creepers". It's a documentary about all the various local Horror Hosts over the years. Good stuff.

I was surprised to see a familiar face however:

Interesting.

I watched three movies today.

Where the Wild Things Are...I haven't read the book since I was like 3, but I'm fairly sure they took some liberties. It was ok I guess, although I couldn't shake the feeling that I was looking at a bunch of etsy listing photos in movie format. I'm not sure why.

Homegrown...
not quite the average stoner comedy (can it be, with John Lithgow? How weird is it to hear John Lithgow talk about pot?) Parts were very funny and entertaining. Other parts contained fairly big plotholes and things that plain didn't make a lot of sense. I'm not sure I buy Jon Bon Jovi as a drug dealer, either. It kind of unexpectedly went dark...although not as dark as a film like Burn After Reading...and then brightened up again. I don't know. Kind of meh.

After.Life was all kinds of stupid. And I mean ALL kinds. You had Christina Ricci with her big lollipop head and Justin Long running the gamut of emotions, from blank-faced grief to blank-faced grief. The movie was chock-full of those loud orchestral jump scares, but it was not at all scary. People have compared it to Our Town but it's more Sixth Sense meets Misery, without the better merits of either. And I got so fucking tired of the constant swirls of red down a white drain.

:maul :ART :ART :ART :ART :ART

Anyhow, if you want to see a whole lot of Christina Ricci's boobies, have I found a film for you.

:boob:boob

Night of the Demons remake. It had decent looking demons and it took place on Halloween night, so I'm happy. :halloween2

The scene that made the whole movie for me though happened in the first five minutes by two stoners:
Spoilers!

Kitsa Oct 28th, 2010 08:09 AM

I wish the avatars were wider, that'd make a good one.

10,000 Volt Ghost Oct 28th, 2010 09:24 AM

Really want to see After.life now.

Aaarg Oct 28th, 2010 10:09 AM

farewell, my concubine
a bit too long, some parts were quite unbelievable, and i spent the whole movie wondering when the suicide would occur. haha.

kingdom of the vampire
just because you have no budget doesn't mean your movie HAS to suck. this is a vampire movie about a teenage (?) vampire named jeff (really) who gets mad at his mom for killing/eating people. i would call it an angstpire movie. also, bad.

Ill be downloading it when I get home. ;)

Just watched Dawn of the Dead (Romero version). Still a classic.

Kitsa Oct 28th, 2010 01:16 PM

I think she spends the better part of the second half of the movie naked, if you're into that.

Me, I remembered Mermaids and just felt gross.

Dimnos Oct 28th, 2010 02:45 PM

Yeah. Never saw that. Not going to have a problem. :)

Kitsa Oct 28th, 2010 08:32 PM

I saw a movie called Helen today. Ashley Judd played a woman with depression and suicidal ideation. The movie was basically about how her behavior alienated husband #2 and her teenage daughter. It was okay, but very predictable (especially when the clone of Angelina Jolie from Girl, Interrupted made her appearance). It was also one of those cold, dreary, artsy pieces where the surroundings were meant to echo the depression and so on. Apparently depression is contagious, because I was battling it after 2 hours of minimalist gray cinderblock rooms and bleak gray beaches.

One of my favorites. I even kind of like the remake.

10,000 Volt Ghost Oct 29th, 2010 09:28 AM

I love the remake of Dawn of the Dead. One of the few remakes that I liked as much.

10,000 Volt Ghost Oct 29th, 2010 10:07 AM

I went to see Saw 3D last night. They had some minor things pop out at you in 3D but I was more impressed with how the 3D made it look like super high def.

The movie ended right at least.

Kitsa Oct 29th, 2010 03:02 PM

I read an article that said these newer 3d movies are giving people migraines because of "unnatural eye movements".

I just finished watching Youth In Revolt. It was okay. Justin Long was almost tolerable in this one, and Fred Willard high on shrooms is amusing. Michael Cera plays Michael Cera, as usual. He's a smartass intellectual wannabe with a miserable life...Jean Smart and Steve Buscemi do well as his divorced parents, with Zach Galifianakis as his mom's boyfriend. He's in love with an unattainable Francophile who listens to Gainsbourg (but pronounces it Gains-burg for some reason, despite the over-the top trilling and phlegmy Rs everywhere else) and would do anything to escape her religious parents' clutches.

Insert hijinks and an ex boyfriend who looks disturbingly like Fred from Scooby-Doo, blah blah blah, gets the girl in the end. But all of the pseudo-Indie shit, the 70s harvest gold interiors and shag carpeting and vinyls and Gainsbourg and all that stuff...I have a lot of trouble buying it as cool and novel. Maybe because I refuse to admit that my parents were cool.

Ex Leper Oct 30th, 2010 07:27 PM

Night of the Demons (2009) & Get Him to the Greek. I enjoyed them both.

Kitsa Oct 31st, 2010 09:33 PM

I just watched Candyman for the first time ever. It was approximately as _________ as I thought it would be.

Shadowdancer21b Nov 1st, 2010 12:42 AM

Pumpkinhead. Avoid the sequel, the original is pretty cool! 3/5

Kitsa Nov 1st, 2010 02:59 PM

Keeping Mum...which includes, horrifyingly, a Rowan Atkinson sex scene.

10,000 Volt Ghost Nov 1st, 2010 03:06 PM

Fido, The Omen and The Exorcist last night for Halloween.

Aaarg Nov 2nd, 2010 04:06 PM

murder on the orient express -
silly, but i liked it.

samurai chicks -
stupid, had nothing going for it.

on golden pond -
i actually liked this one a lot. if more of the movie was henry fonda being a smartass (not that most of the movie was not), i'd have loved it.
