Definitely a must-watch for fans of flicks like Jack Frost, and Troll 2.

^then I should see it, cuz I love both of those!!

oh and I agree with yr takes on H20 and Ressurection. I'm glad you see how good H20 is. It really worked well. And the ending is amazing. Ressurection is... terrible. I watch it once every 3 or so years to remind myself HOW bad it is though.

MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON is one of my favorite things ever made.

Dude, YOU will love Scare Crow!

I feel like I caught a bit of it via SiFi channel a whiles bakc but can't recall...

Twilight, (1994) short film dir.Tengai Amano, film of the year...spose this could also appear on the strange movies thread too.

I don't believe Scorsese directed this.

The Departed - 6/10 (Infernal Affairs gets an 8/10 btw)

I also recently got his documentary American Boy, which is EXCELLENT, and dialogue from it is used word-for-word in Waking Life.

8/10. A great movie, there's a strange kind of Cronenberg feel to it, don't you think ? William Hurt's performance is top notch and some of the hallucination scenes are fucking insane.



5/10. Disappointing. I usually LOVE zombie movies and I thought the fucked-up idea of Nazi zombies was brilliant (even though it's not the first time someone thinks of it) but as soon as the movie started, it kinda failed to entertain me. It starts way too slowly (that's the problem with most typical horror films) and actually, the Nazi thing doesn't bring anything to the movie, it could have worked with regular zombies. The "storyline" they use with the war treasure and all that stuff is fucking ridiculous... At least, it has some awesome zombie death scenes and the scene where they put the cabin on fire is hilarious so it doesn't totally suck. Very predictable movie nevertheless.

Ken Russel, wohoo. Go watch LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM or (the shitty, except for the hallucination scenes) GOTHIC. Some of the wildest, craziest trip scenes ever!

Yep, Altered States used to scare the living shit out of me as a kid. The fucking goat.

As far as nazi zombies go, Shock Waves and Zombie Lake are both okay but meh.

I'll check that out ! From what I've seen, Ken Russell is a great director. Tommy is one of my favorite musical movies EVER (and it also has one of my favorite movie endings ever).

Ken Russell is like a 12-year old with a film crew.

Cool, there needs to be more 12 year olds then. Then, movies would actually be entertaining.

I agree. His films are entertaining. They entertain me. I find them funny or absurd or whatever, and it keeps my interest. But I don't think he's a "good" director.

The Devils is a good film. Altered States is a good film. He has talent. In editing, composition, structure, lighting, etc.

He's a good director. Maybe not a great director...

WHORE and WOMEN IN LOVE are cool films too.

A fucking fantastic movie, one of the best ones I've seen in a while. The last part was so scary I almost shat my pants. 9/10.

I'll go as far as to say he's an "okay director"...

...BTW, it took me reading like 15 of yr posts to notice I was talkign to you, adam. Changing avatars always throws me off for a day or two. haha.
