I love his work too. But at college it was kind of the goto film while getting stoned. God that was a big mistake on my part :shocked:

Blog now up....don't judge me too harshly cough...;)

When I watch these films I try put myself in the era they were released and see it through the eyes of someone watching it then. By today's standards it make appear tame but when this was released first I'm sure it was horrifying to people.Very little shocks now because we are used to seeing death on the news and internet.

Wasn't this Deodato's reason for the film in the first place?
Personally there is still something unpleasant about the film for me, which was the point I believe. Just saying!

Now that I think of it that was exactly the point of the film :blush:

I was just trying to to make the point and badly I might add that I understand people watching it now for the first time may not be shocked by it because of how modern society is. The film is no walk in the park and still gives me a grimy feel.

I can only retell the tale of when a mate appeared at my door clutching CH. Which he had never seen. Obligingly I stuck it into the VHS player, and off we went.....about the time of the turtle scene, another mate turned up....eating a hamburger....since I had stopped the tape for the interruption, I went to make another brew, and then stuck the film on again...now I've heard people say that they've gone "green" at something unpleasant...but this genuinely made him change colour, though he didn't rush to the toilet or anything spectacular....after it had finished I then stuck on Targets (1968)..which has quite a nasty opening scene....to which hamburger matey said "don't you have any nice films?"

Something that still makes me laugh to this day.

Late Phases (2014)

Well this was a surprise!

A very original and dare say it, profound, take on the werewolf film. Great acting by a very complex and interesting main character.

In fact I think this has become my fav werewolf film ever, I would defo recommend other members on this forum check this one out.

9/10. :clap:

So annoyed that there doesn't appear to be a Region 2 blu of this, only a DVD. Seems that this happens to so many other great and not so great recent horror films! :censored:

The Signal - (Won this dvd from Cult Labs recently)
A bunch of mates hack into various government agencies but are constantly chased by a user called 'Nomad' no matter how fast these guys manage to hack a place 'Nomad' is waiting and usually with a photo of them on thier laptops doing the hacking... well 'Nomad' gives them coordinates and tells them to meet him/her and things go a little wrong. they meet at a house at night time, the house is very much like the house in 'The blair witch' it's dark and the two male friends go into the home only to hear thier third friend (the girl) scream, they race through the darkness to get back to the car just in time to see her body fly vertically up into the night sky...

The three actors are young but can act, i blooming ditest young actors that have no idea that acting is more that a symetrical face, orange skin and a well maintained phisique. but these guys do a great job, the movie is matched very nicly with a super stylish soundtrack, it reminded me of a band called the antlers, sort of classical music but modern in style, very nice indeed, then laurence fishburne turns up and makes the movie double in awesomeness.

in short the film is about aliens, our three have been abducted and wake up in quarenteen, fishburne is a detective trying to work out where they have been but all is not what it seems. are they on earth and in quarenteen or are they still with little green men pretending to be agents?

Watch this movie is you enjoy sci-fi along the lines of The Maze Runners and the Hunger Games. Nothing major here folks but even hardened Sci-Fi film fans may not see the twist at the end of this flick. highly reccomended for a sunday afternoon watch. :)

The Great Outdoors (Netflix UK)
I love John Candy and don;t mind Dan Aykroid so i thought this would be a good flick but man i was wrong. Terrible editing and a deperate attempt to condense a john hughes style story arc and a lampoons comedy into one film. it doesn't work at all. Candy goes on a vacation to find his brother-in-law (Aykroid) has followed him, uninvited of course. Candy bites his lip and puts up with the terrible disaterous events that his brohter-in-law puts him thourgh untill the pay of at the end of the film when candy tells him where to stick it. mean while a tedious and sometimes risky love story 'of sorts' begins between the oldes son and a town girl. it seem massily innapropriate and some of the situations they have the young actress in are questionalble in todays society.

avoid it, Candy has better to offer and the film is dull and sometimes offensive.

Fathers day.
Everything about this film was rubbish, the film, acting, dialogue, but after all what do you expect from Troma, so bad their good but at times you cant decide if you like or disliked it. After all if you go into a troma film expecting anything more then clearly your dillusional and dont know much about Troma films. The way the film was made and the feel of it and tones of colour would give you the expressions it was a 80s throw back and not something thats been made quite recentish. But certain parts made you feel like you was watching. Another one of the A U films
Troma have made so many films and have a cult statues im actual surprised there isnt a channel on sky dedicated to just troma films etc.

Today's.viewings.
The Toxic Avenger 2:
So I loved the 1st one. The second one not as good as the first one. But still an enjoyable film. The moment toxic went to Japan was enjoyable and the dubbing was terrible. But in saying that it was still entertaining.

Class of Nuke Em High:
Yes that's right more Troma. This time the plot centres around a high school and a nuclear power plant. I don't know why but I thought this movie was amazing. The cretins were what made it so good.

Interstellar,

Wow what a ride, well thought out and acted. Gripping from start to finish IMO and is worthy of repeat viewings. PQ & AQ were excellent.

I keep hearing awesome things about this film, it's about time i watched it me thinks. :nod:

A good old school friend is staying over as we're off on a day trip tomorrow so I'm treating her to some classic cinema with The Room and Samurai Cop, let the awkward sex scenes commence.


http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL15.../411123248.jpg

I'm confused, are you watching films or having sex? Either way have a great night!

Will your awkward sex scenes be filmed for our perusal?

I knew that would be picked up on yet I chose not to rephrase, no and no but I swear her bum just touched mine!

Antz (1977) VHS-Rip youtube

Hilarious 70's animal attack TV-movie cheesiness - Not the same years Empire of The Antz. Has some familiar faces including that lady who can't herself from shouting Bastard!!!!!!! at the top of her longs, Lynda Day Gorge and the lovable Brian Dennehy as the incompetent fire chief.

My fav scene, when a helicopter the chief calls in blows the pesty critters onto onlookers :lol:

6/10

You make it sound like your friend's bum is independent of her. Is it after your elongated tail bone?

I think it is, she keeps moving a lot!

Tricky, feral bums can be a real nuisance. I would say pin it down and beat it into submission. You have to show them who is in control.

HAHA! brilliant review mate.

In all the sexual confusion no one noticed the demon cat lurking in the background :lol:

Mothers Day (88 Films).

Thought this one was great, acting and story were really quite well done. PQ was generally very good. All in all a great package.

No, you win a prize for keeping your eyes and mind on cat.

Nordy the gentleman,who would have thought.

I will have to shake myself down and up my game if there are prizes to be won.

You calling me a gentleman has ruined any chance of me making a joke now :crying:

He's no gentleman. He just thinks of pussy 24/7. :whip:

:pound:

Thx mate!

High above the rabble in her palace of feline power, Sharon looks down on the dogs as they debase themselves fighting for scraps. Her simple use of one word, having set the honey trap...

One word? She needs to learn from you. :nod:

All your posts drip with eroticism. :whip:

A gentleman does not concern himself with such things. :lol:

Don't think so, most of my posts just involve insulting you, Nordy and Ron but if that's what floats your boat, go for it.:tongue1:

Well that just goes to show what a terrible influence you are. You make Ron change his identity every two years and have turned Nordy into a very confused redneck. :wise:

Insults are sometimes mistaken for flirting.;)

:lol:

Are you trying to get me to pull your pigtails at playtime Nordy?

High Plains Drifter last night on TV.

It was the 1st time I had seen this film and considering everyone said it was strange I thought I would give it a watch.

I did enjoy the film a lot and the violence in it was realistic unlike the John Wayne shoot bad guys and they don't bleed. Others have said it's a prequel to PALE RIDER, I haven't seen that yet, but I did enjoy HIGH PLAINS DRIFER and would buy it on BLU.

:gangster:

Insult or flirting :confused:

:lol:

hi guys, yesterday I re watched f13th part 4.
not the best, but still enjoyed it.
I did notice something I never noticed before!
when Jason breaks robs rifle, you can actually see a figure, obviously Jason, walking away.
