New Review Up:

Tombs of the Blind Dead (1972) - Buncha Spanish Templars return from the crusades after findin' Satan an start practicin' dat voodoo dat dey do til the Pope gets P.O.'d an blows up their whole congregation with a well placed Holy Nova. Unfortunately, Satan gave 'em all a 1up before the blast went off an now they rise from the grave every night to tap the jugulars of idiots that trespass on their Grim Reaper tailgate parties.

New Review Up:

Creature from the Haunted Sea (1961) - Secret Agent Lames Bond hooks up with a buncha Cubans who backed the wrong horse during the revolution an some American gangsters to try an make off with the Cuban treasury. Unfortunately, every time they stop the boat the Cookie Monster shows up, whacked out on frozen cookie dough an starts goin' to town like Kirstie Alley in a Chips Ahoy factory. It's movies like this that make it pretty clear Roger Corman definitely drew from his own experiences when he made The Trip in 1967.

You need to be more consistent with your apostrophes and just type the damn "d" in "and".

Shouldn't it at least be "an'"..

Also...Kristie Alley jokes...Im not saying Alley isn't fat, just that she isn't relevant.

Tue Feb 18 19:40:54
The correct way to type it, if one were so inclined, would be to make it 'an. I'm just not inclined.

The reason I leave those without the apostrophe is because they actually make a word when it's missing. Writing like a hick that doesn't know the first thing about English is part of the gimmick. Without, ya know, making it deliberately unreadable.

Similar to Briggs, though I don't think he ever used that specific example of dropping the "d" from and.

And... I may not be the best person to try convincing that persons places and things which are not current aren't relevant. She's not in the news much of late, granted. But neither will many of the people I reference years after the review was completed.

I haven' been keeping up with Community. It got too popular, people like it a bit too much. Makes me suspicious.

Big into the Thick of It at the moment. Very funny. And Orange is the New Black...which is just standard Kohen fare...predictable, overly dramatic, but inherently watchable...on account of it being a soap opera targeted at more than just housewives.

I have that same issue..

Hulu has The Thick of It, will have to watch. Might have to stream Orange from somewhere .. House of Cards seems pretty good; I saw a few episodes of that at a friend's. And soon Portlandia is starting again.. but I'm pretty much just watching Daily/Colbert, The Soup, and Walking Dead atm. Also I watch all of EF's movies ;D

Oh I've seen Graveyard Shift, I like it a lot, though many people don't. The guy who played Brogan in it was actually in the movie I just reviewed, The Intruder Within.

Brad Dourif is going to be better known as the voice of Chucky from the Child's Play movies. But a lot of other things as well; Wormtongue from the Lord of the Rings movies, and Billy Bibbit in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, for the more normal people. More horror titles than I'd care to list, he's one of my favorite actors.

Yeah! He's cools. I like him in LOTR but I always think of him first for Alien, just because of that scene where he was like, "You are a beautiful, beautiful butterfly"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2oVCpxqquo
.. and then he was eaten ;p
but yeah, even in Star Trek Voyager he got to play a weirdo — he'd be like a hidden horror staple, like Clint Howard but much cooler :p
didn't realize he was Chucky, though!

And the guy that Chris Sarandon kills in the toy store before he hops into the doll.

Yeah I've seen Alien: Resurrection, the CG was really painful. He's done enough horror stuff that I don't list his relevant resume in my reviews, as I kinda assume anybody reading them has a good idea of who he is.
Cherub Cow

Sun Jun 29 20:58:28
True! He's a gem whose catalog should be issued to horror fans :D

Resurrection did enough puppet work that it worked for me, though the underwater scene and the finale were pretty obvious CGI, so yeah, that wasn't fun. Still, directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amélie, City of Lost Children, Micmacs) was good, so I give passes :p
HH Evenflow

Sun Jun 29 21:38:59
I don't hate Resurrection the way many people do, though I'm surprised that its managed a 6.3 on the IMDB. I tend to rate things on a bell curve, so a movie has to be *really* good to get a 100, and it has to be *really* bad to get a 1. I seldom review a movie that manages a 7 on the IMDB, and I'd say more than half of everything I've done was a 5 or less.

Ron Perlman goes a long way towards keeping Resurrection out of the toilet, too. He's another one of my favorites. Plus Nick Tortelli from Cheers as the General, lol

Yes! Perlman ftw! :D
Weaver's and Ryder's conversations/parts were very cool in that too. Sci-fi feminism lives lightyears ahead of U.S. misandry-feminism, and they showed it again in Resurrection.

Oh no! D:

Avatar's a major cash cow. I have zero interest in ever seeing it, but I'll give it this; it's not a remake, its as original as you're going to see at this point in the game, and people seem to like it.

An hey, if you wanna talk feminism, the horror genre as a whole has been way ahead of the game for over thirty years. Think about it, what gender is the person who finally outsmarts the slasher and runs a farm implement through 'em?
Cherub Cow
Member
Sun Jun 29 23:59:19
Exactly! :D
That's a big part of why I love the genre so much. Mainstream movies like "Mona Lisa Smile" or whatever have these watered-down approaches to feminism where a character can be excused for huge flaws because the message was basically made for stupid masses, but a lot of horror films portray individualist-feminism, which shows individuals actually accomplishing things not because of some constructed gender identity but because **they can do it**. They show people who don't even play into the gender-performance game, because they've gained -functional- capital instead of just passive expectations/entitlements. Really big part of why I loved Dredd and the new "The Thing" so much — though I suspect you might not like that The Thing was remade ;p
HH Evenflow
Moderator
Mon Jun 30 19:35:10
I've got the 2011 version of The Thing, haven't watched it yet. I had the idea that it was more of a prequel than a remake. Could be wrong, of course. I don't begrudge studios nearly as much for sequels as I do remakes. Can pretty well rule out the idea that it'll surpass the original, because the original is probably in my top 10 list. But also because the special effects on the original are so good that the first CG effect will result in a terrible belly bomb in that pivotal department.

Horror has more than its share of stupid characters of both genders, but the one that finally gets their shit together and takes out the threat is almost invariably female. People have an easier time identifying with a female lead than a male in horror movies, for whatever reason. Look at A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2, for instance. It's not a *bad* movie, but it ranks below nearly every other entry in the series, and I think the reason is because of the male protagonist.

"I had the idea that it was more of a prequel than a remake."

It was, yeah. And they used a lot of normal gore, but they also used CGI, sadly :/
Still good though! :p

Haven't really thought about that with horror movies. I was going to mention Riddick or Event Horizon, but of the -slasher- horror genre that really seems to be true a lot.

New turkey of a review up for your holiday consumption... warning: may cause vomiting.

The Creeping Terror (1964) - Cantankerously callous carpet creature flies down to Earth in the spaceship from A Trip to the Moon an starts slurpin' down the residents of Chawspittle county. The highly adaptable nature of the creature is attributed to the fact that it must have come from a great distance, so I'm assuming it also had a long distance relationship goin' with that '59 Skoda Felicia. Otherwise Midas is gonna have to run a rape kit on that poor vehicle, an I'd prefer not to think the worst about an outer space monster without just cause first.

The Deadly Spawn (1983) - Outer space penis monsters crash on Earth in a meteorite an hole up in the basement of some middle class family an proceed to mutilate more meat than Joni Ernst durin' castration season. Fortunately, the house is inhabited by a creepy 13 year old kid who's seen Shivers about 119 times an has become more desensitized to traumatic experiences than a Gen Xer whose children spend their days watchin' the same Barney VHS tape on loop. Now it's up to him to save the world before the schlonker slugs turn the place into Sodom and Gomorrah II: Electric Poogaloo.

It's basically like a more tentacle rapey version of Communism with Kurt Russell standin' in for Joe McCarthy. One of the top ten best horror flicks of all time, so if you haven't already, stick it to Putin an check this one out.

I remember seeing that one. My parents owned a movie rental place in the mid 80's so I would grab a new flick every night which was payment for my child labor. I think I won out there, imo :P

Anyway, I clearly remember picking out 'The Thing' out and my little sister complaining about as she wanted to see Charlotes Web for the billionth time. We had a couple of pet squirels in the side room of the store. My mom rescued them from the woods not far from the store. Their dislodgement was probably mine and my friend Kyle's fault. We would 'ride' the short pines in those woods, basically climb as far as you can then reach up and grab the tree near the top and jump. Most the time you could ride it down to about a yard from the ground, sometimes not so much, lol. So the consequence of our fun was adopting a couple baby squirels. We named one Amedeus, and the other was the runt so we called him Little-Bit. At slow spells at the shop I'd go to the side room and let them out. Amadeus would get on top of the four foot high cage and if you beckoned him he would jump across the room and land on your shoulder. I started getting bored of this trick and would beckon him then side step watching him sail past and nearly hit the wall. He would get pissed run up my legs and try to bite my neck. I loved that little dude! Eventually we released them at Landmark Park to survive on their own. That's why I remember The Thing, I picked that out the day we set them free.

Only McCoy won't do it cause it'd violate the prime directive an so he introduces 'im to Jamie Lee Curtis' mama an 'er husband who's a research scientist an employs 'em to develop a Bugsbonic plague to eliminate the Hellvatine rabbits.

Alrighty, will make it the next one I do after I finish the current title. I'm doing The Dark from 1979 this week. Course, I *though* I was doing The Mutilator from 1985, but it turns out The Dark had an alternate title called "The Mutilator." And because the description on the back of the VHS was so pitifully cryptic I didn't think anything of it until it was too late. So not only did I watch the wrong movie, but I now realize that I don't actually have The Mutilator, *and* watched a really lousy VHS print when I could have been watching my DVD of The Dark to begin with. But I'm not bitter.

You can also like the Facebook page if you'd like, and if haven't already. I generally update it about twice a week with a post about what's up next, and then a notification that it went up.

The Dark (1979) - The Laser Floyd Flayer lands his spaceship on Earth an starts sneakin' up on unsuspectin' women in dark alleyways before proceedin' to unleash the Star Wars missile defense lasers he's had surgically implanted into his eyeballs. William Devane's on the case though, an he's spent so much time in the tannin' bed to build up an immunity to harmful UV rays in preparation for this one that he's startin' to look like Erik Estrada. Hopefully the CHiPs reruns have gotten out far enough into space that Floyd's built up a healthy respect for Ponch, otherwise things might get ugly.
