I should start by saying that Re-Animator is a top 5 movie of all time for me. So I can't really disparage all that he's done. I also love From Beyond and Dagon. And that's about it. So I guess it's really only Stuart Gordon's adaptations of his works that I like.

As far as his writings, I find it difficult to get through an entire sentence without falling asleep. Now this stuff was written like a hundred years ago, so you might just be able to say that it was a different time, and writing was... Continue »

No offense, but after watching some of you motherfuckers bastardizing this challenge with so many mainstream movies, I felt I had no choice but to destroy you all. I'm sure you understand. I appreciate your participation, nonetheless, and hope you join me for Trash Challenge VIII.

A man keeps failing at suicide, because every time he dies, he is reborn through the big vagina on his wall. He and his sister are having trouble disposing of his dead bodies, as they keep piling up.

Recommended for lovers of the bizarre. Now playing on Tubi.

Sorry, I've been a little over-caffeinated lately, just in general... I need to get that under control, and resume my normal, fairly sedate pace of posting stuff.

But, what are some movies that fit the above description? I can think a few right away, but there must be a lot that I don't know about.

Here's my starter list:

-- The Running Man
-- Robocop
-- The Stuff (of course. Basically the whole movie).
-- Blow Out (1981, the John Travolta movie) (if you look at the walls of John Travolta's... Continue »

It's that annoying wonderful time of the year for parents like me when kids are off school for the Easter holidays so hey what better way to keep them occupied by watching some cartoons together - kiddy suitable of course, or otherwise...

Rules:

- You get one point per minute watched.

- All forms of animation count, including live action mixed with animation, i.e. Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

- Feature length, TV shows, shorts - they all count.

- The challenge will run f... Continue »

was the golden age for cable tv. Many actors got their start or recognition from these shows at the time. Besides James Gandolfini becoming a star due to The Sopranos there were many others. Micheal C. Hall's role in Six Feet Under got him the starring lead in Dexter. Timothy Olyphant broke thru from starring in Deadwood which later got him Justified. It also resurrected Ian McShane's career. Rome had a great cast that many found themselves later cast in Game of Thrones. Ray Stevenson was the st... Continue »

We live in a world subject to constant change. Every second of every minute of every hour, changes take place. These changes are perhaps invisible to us because our level of awareness is limited. Take for example how the things we do and say to the people we meet, all these things affect our lives, influence our destinies... And yet there seems to be some kind of fantastic order to the whole thing. We never know how or when we w... Continue »

These movies have gone a little off the rails, huh? By the time we get around to this one, he's basically unstoppable. You have to turn your brain off to accept that he can get hit by a car a dozen times, fall off high buildings, and get shot and stabbed several times... and still keep going. There is no stopping him, because the box office is good. And the critic reviews are good. And the fan reviews are good too?

As Keanu says as his first of many^{very few} lines in the movie,... Continue »

In 2017, the series came full circle with a sequel that was also a prequel. It didn't have a number on it because things gets more laughable the higher the number goes, and this series was already getting exhausted at that point. As that one "ends", Jigsaw killer John Kramer is still dead, but only after having masterminded 8 over-complicated torture sprees upon the diagnosis of his cancer. If he had spent as much time seeking treatments, he probably wouldn't have needed to be such an asshole, b... Continue »

As you know I was hoping for a win for the Trumpster , I'll use this post as a record to see if in 4 years time, he has kept to his main promises.

1. Build a beautiful 55' high wall and make the mexicans pay for it
2. Drain the swamp, eg Senators limited to 2 terms
3. Increase median Wages above inflation
4. Decrease unemployment rate
5. Decrease government debt currently $19.818 trillion
6. Deport 2 Million people in the first hour of his Precidency
7. Impose 45% tariff on chin... Continue »

AKA "Antropofago", AKA "The Grim Reaper", AKA "Man Beast", AKA "The Savage Island", AKA "The Zombie's Rage".

Starring George Eastman as the ugly cannibal. What more do you need?

The story is pretty simple. A bunch of hapless victims find themselves on an abandoned island in Greece and go exploring. Little do they know a maniac cannibal lives on the island, having be... Continue »

Video nasties were any aspiring horror fan's wet dream in the early 2000s. That's when I first saw this and several other notorious splatter flicks. Like many others from its era, this one is nothing original. It tries to combine the infectious concepts of a zombie movie with the idea of cannibalism, yet it ends up nothing like either one of these subgenres. What we get instead is some kind of crazed Vietnam vet contagion scenario that's made watchable because it has the great John Saxon, as wel... Continue »

I've been rummaging through a lot of files. Breaking this, fixing that, etc. Here are a few notable changes:


HUDs have been restored. They're still pointless, but at least they look cool. You'll see them back in the drop-down menu.

The camera/snapshot system has been redesigned. Hopefully it will be more convenient and more app-like, particularly on mobile devices. Tested on windows/chrome and android/chrome, still buggy on iPhones (typical).

What are some movies that would get me a lot of points in the trash challenge?

Typically, Troma movies are a great place to start. Anything by Lloyd Kaufman is bound to be obscene, but what else is filled with taboos? John Waters movies like Pink Flamingos are quite insane for the hell of it, too.

I was watching Freeway II: Confessions of a Trick-Baby, and that movie is loaded with inappropriate subject matter. Gotta love a movie that has no qualms normalizing shock value.

What... Continue »

Sure am glad I bought so many Something Weird Video dvds back in the 2000's cuz those things are either very hard to find or ridiculously priced. Love those double features. SWV put several director's filmographies on dvd over the years, including Herschell Gordon Lewis, Doris Wishman, and plenty lesser-known people. One director I discovered through Something Weird was one Bethel Buckalew, who actually may or may not have existed. I've read ru... Continue »

Now here's a movie you don't see mentioned much. It's always about the first two movies and never this one, so why is that? Probably because it was made in the 90s. Yeah, 1990 is still pretty close to the 80s, but at the tail end when things started to lose their charm a bit.

SPM3 is kinda dull, isn't it? It's not nearly as fun as the first two, opting for a slightly more serious tone like the first one, only that one was still much better than this. Don't get me wrong, though. I do enjoy this... Continue »

I'm just wondering if they were filmed at the same locations. There is a barn in each movie, and it looks like it sould be the same place. Also, the land and the trees just look really similar. They were both filmed near Los Angeles, of course, in somewhere called Santa Clarita.

By the way, at one point in Leprechaun they have lunch at a diner called the Saugus Cafe. As a Bostonian, that made me say something along the lines of "what the hell?!?" because there is a town north of Boston... Continue »

What a fucking joke. That movie Everything Everywhere All at Once won all the big awards. It was okay at best, but still a convoluted mess of a movie. They only gave it awards because it had Asians and gay people. They really didn't have anything better than that last year?!

I hope someone got slapped.

Called The Russian Lathe Accident. That was all kinds of ew

There's been lots of talk of it lately, so I gave it a whirl and watched season 1. It's pretty decent. Natasha Lyonne is great in it as the human lie detector who gets caught up in weekly murder mysteries in various settings. I find it comparable to The Incredible Hulk in that she's on the run from something, inadvertantly doing good deeds in the various places she hunkers down in. It's more episodic in that sense than a lot of other shows, so you don't need to pay too much attention to a... Continue »

First of all, what a pathetic title. Whatever happened to titles that make it easy for us to google them?!? Titles like Soylent Green, or Frankenhooker, or Maniac Cop 3: Badge of Silence? There's no way in hell you can find The Lost by googling it, without more information. OK, so, just so you have that information if you want it, it starred Michael Bowen, Marc Senter as the main character, Dee Wallace, Shay Astar, Megan Henning, Robin Sydney, Ed Lauter, Richard Riehle (Tom the co-worker, fr...

I'm a big fan of It's Always Sunny, if you didn't already know. It was around 2017 to 2020 that the cast decided they wanted to do other things. Other tv shows. Rob McEllenhey did Mythic Quest in 2020. Glenn Howerton did AP Bio in 2018. But before those, there was... The Mick.

Sunny is filled with great characters, but Dee is obviously the worst. Suffice to say, I wasn't anxious to tune into a show about bird-watching, so this show went under my radar for years. Wi... Continue »

Obviously, I can't say much. The Manhattan setting is great. The movie is set on the cusp of Halloween, meaning Ghostface Takes Manhattan isn't a stretch. Everybody is throwing parties and there's an element of hiding in plain sight going on that's really wonderful. They certainly take full advantage of the NYC locale and try to exploit that in various ways. Notably convenient stores, subways, apartment buildings, and Central Park.

Our characters still got it, the violence is heavy, and... Continue »

I was wondering what everyone's opinion of a throwback movie is?

Hey everyone, I have been away for a long times, and currently do not watch movies anymore. I cannot even remember the last movie I watched. I had a question for the parents on here. Or a couple.

So I had a son this past October, he is a very chill baby, but I still haven't taken him to a theater. Im super nervous about taking him the first time. He loves watching the tv when its on.

He is 4 months old, 5 months on the 11th. Im taking my grandma to watch the new scream movie when it comes ou... Continue »
