Am I the only one that liked Event Horizon? That film scared the shit out of me.

Halloween and Halloween Kills back to back.

Everyone loved it when I was a kid. I didn’t see it until I was an adult but I thought it was bad. Maybe because I was an adult?

Have you seen Sunshine? It’s got a few similar bits and pieces, but more hard-sci-fi, less mystical. Also flawed, particularly around the end, but it has some really, really good moments and some great relatively low-budget effects (still millions of dollars I’m sure, but it feels minimal for that kind of film — the look of it is great)

the last movie-movie i watched in serious concentration was THE CARD COUNTER



it was fucking great!

Sharkenstein which is another as bad as it sounds.


Alien rewatch.

coolness

last weekend i made a little pilgrimage to go see todd haynes's THE VELVET UNDERGROUND



a brilliant film, and worth the effort to catch it in a big screen, althought it's "an apple film" (hence, streamable). but yeah, no, huge screen + big projector + commercial sound system are required for full aesthetic appreciation of this. fkin looooooooooved it.

Looking forward to having the time to watch this soon.

Watched Vincent Price's film Theatre of Blood. fucking cool flick.

DUNE was very good and I can’t wait to see the rest of the movie in 2 years lmao

im waiting for the dune crowds to subside a bit before going

meanwhile i saw this last night on the criterion channel:



good, inspiring, sad, really good

I watched it from my living room on hbo max. I’m fucking with no crowds.

sure, but did your seats shake with the worm? :D

i usually find a way to escape to a depopulated matinée. this has been my custom for years anyway, but with the pandemic there's an extra health bonus.

in any case.... masks are required (some morons pull them, true, though most don't) and im vaccinated anyway

Saw this on Friday. I really quite enjoyed it. A dark, exciting trip of a movie.

i saw a trailer for that a while ago, some kind of time traveling was it i think?

looks like this thread got stuck...

anyway i just watched kenneth lonergan's "margaret" which i didn't think i was going to finish when i saw it was 3 hours long!

and it took me 2 sessions just due to schedule conflicts but yeah, it was very watchable and i would have finished it in one sitting otherwise.




great story, great cast, great little philosophical and aesthetic digressions, really good! well, it was a surprise...
