If it's in general, because i do too. Have you seen Milk Money? A fine rom-com where Griffith's hooker gets embroiled with single dad Ed Harris. It's perhaps a little schmaltzy for you but i love it.
A general observation. She's one of my favourite actresses. 'Something Wild' is in my all time top five, although not a lot of people would say that of themselves. I don't think I've seen 'Milk Money', but I really like Ed Harris too.

Ah, Litan! A bizarre curio that certainly needs some more exposure. Glad you enjoyed it, Frankie.

It's an amazing film, I should've bigged it up even more. Are you aware of any plans for a 'proper' release? It really deserves one.

There was a French DVD released by Pathe in 2005, but I don't think it's English language friendly...

ANOES: Freddy's Revenge (Jack Sholder, 1985).
Not as "gay" as Top Gun imho. Though Rick Springfield looked pretty enough

The Visitor (Micheal J Paradise, 1979). Where has this film been all my life? Truly beyond description, I fervently insist that all members who haven't had the pleasure/torture of seeing this, to rectify this immediately. Or not.

Willow Creek (Bobcat Goldthwaite, 2014).
I feel I may have missed the point of this film.

Stage Fright (Michele Soavi, 1987).
If I'm going to watch one film with a sax solo, It will be this.

Default What Films Have You Seen Recently?

Doc savage man of bronze

ImageUploadedByTapatalk1415648009.312617.jpg
A childhood favourite that I haven't seen since I was a kid. Still as much fun as when I first saw it. doc savage investigates the death of his father along with his friends the fabulous five. Over the top, great theme song and outrageously camp but that's why I loved it as a child and love it now. Only disappointment we never got that sequel that was promised with the end credits. 10/10

The creation of the humanoids

ImageUploadedByTapatalk1415649486.837819.jpg
Unlike a lot of sci fi around the same time it's very cerebral without much action. The story is set many years after nuclear war were robots or clickers as they are called here are created as a slave race. The story opens with two clickers charged with killing a human. The leader of a group called the order of the flesh who look down on the clickers( think of them as the KKK or nazis) gets involved. But things are not as it seems as we find out that the clickers have been resurrecting dead humans in improved android bodies which can reproduce, (which the vast amount of the human population can't and because of this is dying out) and immunity to radiation. The final irony comes when the leader of the order finds out that he himself is one of the things he hates so much. As I said very little action but I enjoyed it. Really reminded me of a episode of Star Trek and something like this was done in the next generation episode measure of the man. 7.5/10

Now watching the soceress

I really like the sound of this 'The Creation of the Humanoids' Trebor, was this on disc or youtube or..?

I just love obscure sci-fi / horror, especially b/w! Never heard of this one.

Disc. If you are a fan of Star Trek TOS I think you will enjoy it.

But it is on YouTube
