The Woman in the Dunes (1964)


A brilliant, modernized re-telling of the tale of Sisyphus, with fantastic cinematography and acting. The close-ups of skin speckled by grains of sand mixed with...

Night of the Creeps (1986; Fred Dekker) - The only thing I don't like about this movie is sometimes the dialogue is too cheesy, but for the most part the comedy hits. The action-y and horror-y bits...

The Conformist (1970, Bernardo Bertolucci) - One of the most beautifully shot movies of the 70s as far as usage of color goes. Coppola watched this film many times in preparation of making The...

Yeah, I'd agree about the movie actually seeming better because of the feel of Fallout 3. Which I guess speaks louder for the game than the movie, but damn it if that ain't a great game.

Which of Kubrick's films is a dud? I've seen all of them except Fear and Desire, Paths of Glory, and Barry Lyndon, and I'd say all of the ones I've seen are at the very least great.

I saw Magnificent Seven before Samurai, but I still think Seven Samurai is superior in every facet. Magnificent Seven is a little bit of a misnomer, it should be called Pretty Good Seven. :tongue1:

I just watched Seven Samurai. I am beginning to think Akira Kurosawa is the best director to ever live, and this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. I am afraid I will go into hyperbole, but...

Ed Gein is an interesting fellow. The nipple belt is one of the more bizarre things I've ever heard of.

Not a film, but I just finished up Twin Peaks. It's the most unique television show I've ever seen. It's a soap opera, it's a comedy, it's a mystery, it's a thriller, it's surreal, it's David Lynch....

I haven't seen the American remake, and honestly, I probably won't. While the original one is really good, Haneke has stated that he thought the story was an American story. Which would explain why...

I finally got around to watching The Wicker Man and it was a weird experience. Everything was borderline ridiculous and could easily have come off as ludicrous as the remake. However, it was held in...

The Umbrellas of Cherbourg - Typically I hate musicals, and seeing as every word of dialogue in the film is sung, you might think I'd hate this film. Au contraire. It took me awhile to get into the...

Honestly, I think it becomes the things it's paying homage to or poking fun at. And when you are poking fun at cliches by doing those things on screen, it's the same as seeing them in any other...

My favorite film of the year. The whole atmosphere effectively oozes filth. I also love the part with Killer Joe making fun of the state of Oklahoma. Being from Texas I can confirm that being a...

I'm yet to see Street Trash, it's a little bit shameful actually, because it's been sitting on the shelf for awhile now. I keep telling myself to watch it, but then I'll turn on the TV and mindlessly...

I'm beginning to wonder that myself! I don't like Creepshow or Return of the Living Dead either. I love Re-Animator though.

And if you are talking about the band Fun, no, no I do not like fun. ;)

Crap. I forgot to add: "For some, that would be the ultimate compliment. For me, it's a condemnation. " :tongue1:
