![]() SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE - 8/10 One of the most visually amazing films ever. also rewatched antonioni's identification of a woman ![]() 9/10. One of his best, definitely his most underrated. Mindblowing film, just like all of his stuff (though I'm still not too big into Zabriskie Point -- does anyone really like that film? Not even the rare Fahey song on the soundtrack can get me excited!) |
I like Zabriskie Point, but I wouldn't say it's all that good. It's only really notable for the final explosion scene. I do enjoy watching it though. It's a nice film just to drift along with.

i loved it. even though i wish i had seen it when i wasn't sure whether it was a hoax or not, i still think its fairly inventive for a 'mockumentary'

Christmas eve/day roundup:
![]() Now this has to be one of the most underrated films I've ever seen. It's just as fun as Escape from New York, and the fact that is a remake BUT relocated to Los Angeles makes so much difference. Carpenter really nailed all those mocking references to Hollywood (the cirurgical failures, the greedy no-matter-who-I-represent-as-long-as-I-make-some-money agent Map of the Stars Eddie, etc) and the political satire on that fucking brilliant last scene. ![]() Great, as pretty much all Terrence Malick films I've seen, just like this next one... ![]() ...which is probably my new favorite war film of all time. Masterpiece. And THOSE landscapes, damn! ![]() Well, Peter Sellers is a comedy god, so, non-stop laughing from start to finish. |
Spent last night watching Bresson films.
![]() MOUCHETTE - 8/10 ![]() L'ARGENT - 9/10 ![]() ![]() A GENTLE WOMAN - 9/10 Bresson is amazing. |

Films I watched over Christmas
Christmas Eve: ![]() Amarcord 9/10 Christmas Day: ![]() The Gospel According to St Matthew. 9/10 Boxing Day: ![]() La Dolce Vita 10/10 ![]() 8 1/2. (10/10) |
What inspired Xmas eve and Xmas day movie choices Demonbuddy...
|
Haha. I'll admit that The Gospel was a selfconscious choice but it wasn't until a few minutes in that I realised what a perfect Christmas Eve film Amarcord is. La Dolce Vita definitely works for Boxing Day, too.
Anyway, just watched... ![]() Somewhere. 4/10 Somewhere in its 95 minutes was a film, I think. |

The Expendables, worst "action" movie ever. AWFUL script, not even a single funny scene.
The A-Team : much better than I expected, a bunch of really good scenes (for this kind of movies). Is the USA "let the right one in" remake kinda interesting? |
Wow badlands....speaking of grimmy masterpeices

![]() I liked it for the most part, but the ending was disappointing. |
![]() The Passion of the Christ. 7/10 Sort of brilliant in the same way that Mel Gibson is sort of brilliant. |
___"Tron"
I went for the effects, but the suits looked like flourscent light bulbs, and my eyes hurt a bit. overall the effects were cool. |
![]() i loved this film and Holy Mountain. i need to see fando y lis now. |
i never got too into "the holy mountain" tbh. it's just a little too over-the-top and corny at times. i mean, i guess that's the point, but the whole scene with the alchemist introducing those seven figures...urgh. "WE MAKE WAR TOIZ!" go stay on a GY!BE album, you prick.
i think "fando y lis" is much better. "el topo" is a top ten all-time film for me. i still really need to see "santa sengre." |
