LOL
Man, we have the same taste. Just watched that before Vibrator! Then again we probably get the same movies recommended to us on Netflix. Same director eh? I Missed that. |
Nah man I'm not on netflix. I think my reviews are still on there (I have 900 afterall; my reviewer rank was 10), but I haven't gotten on there in well over a year, maybe 2 years. I'm not really sure how and where I find movies. Mostly imdb threads, or random. Lots of reccomendations by people on soulseek or noisefanatics.com... I dunno. I just find a director I like and get everything by them. You know a film you'd probably like? BITTERSWEET LIFE:
![]() You may have seen it, but I think you'd dig PEPPERMINT CANDY, too, judging from your tastes ![]() The whole movie is backwards, a la Memento and other films that aren't as good as Peppermint Candy and Memento. anyway just watched ![]() DREAM HOME - 7/10 cool director, just got LOVE IN A PUFF by the same guy and gonna watch that before I go to bed ![]() |

COMPLETELY FUCKING INSANE charles manson documentary that is edited like a fucking brakhage movie... but imagine the brakhae film had a soundtrack for once and the soundtrack was even more wild and cut-up and insanely edited than the imnages... but imagine all the images were manson.. and imaginate all the sounds were manson speaking and manson playing guitar and shit.. and there you go. insane ifilm. it's on youtube. i have a really really rare dvd of it (it's limited to 50 copies! since it's so damn ... unauthorized... all these samples and stolen video works and shit..) basiucally it's a "Best of charles manson", if that makes sense. still, it's not as good as the documentary from.. 1972?... i believe.. called simply MANSON.. if you want to se ean INSANE manson doc, that's the onew.

![]() 5/10 I loved the collection of stories when i was a kid, but this film couldnt decide on how seriously it wanted to take the ideas in the source material and tried to make up for it with wise-cracks and explosions. |
@atsonic, Troll 2 is a fantastic movie. We've watched it many times over the years. ALWAYS entertaining. Far from "bad."

![]() Warm Water Under a Red Bridge - 8/10 diary of a shinjuku thief - 9/10 ![]() ![]() BLAST OF SILENCE - 10/10 .. feels like if scorsese made a film in 1960. ALSO, I JUST CHECKED AND I NOW HAVE 72 CINEMAGEDDON INVITES. IF YOU WANT TO JOIN, THEN REPLY TO ME WITH AN EMNAIL ADDRESS. NO PM'S. NO SEPARATRE THREADS. NO FACEBOOK EMAILS. JUST SAY: I WANT A CG INVITE. THEN LEAVE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS.IF YOU DON'T WANT BOTS TO SPAM YOU, YOU CAN SAY "I WANT THAT CG INVITE... NAME - I'M AT HOTMAIL. SOMETHING LIKE THAT. YOU KNOW? EXAMPLE: ASP... gimme dat invite... i'm beefheartisgodw4346363 ... and that's at gmail dot com btw. FROM THERE, SIMPLY CHECK YOUR EMAIL, IT MIGHT SEND IT TO YOUR JUNK MAIL. Cinemageddon is fucking amazing. If you're interested at all in Japanese films, undergroundf ilms, experimental films, weird films, films only available on VHS, indie films, concert films, biographic films, horror films (especially giallos!), Troma films... basically, any films that aren't mainstream.. or if they ARE mainstream, they're fucked up or foreign (FReddy Got Fingered, all Argento/Bava/Cronenberg/Fulci) or not available on DVD (Suburbia, Natural Enemies)... just to be able to get a shit ton of Fassbinder,Godard, Jost, Kitano, etc. is worth it. If you're more into mainstream stuff, demonoid is free to sign up for, and like I posted elsewhere, some guy is uploading all of his "Director filmography" stuff... so far he's uploaded every Lynch, Jodorowsky, Cronenberg, Allen, Hitchcock, Kurosawa, and Kubrick films. And he's going to be uploading ALL Greenaway (gotta get that!), Fassbinder, Mike Leigh (Naked -= one of the best films ever), Antonioni, Brothers Quay, Ki Duk Kim (another one everyone should get, if only for Real Fictyion and the Isle!), and about 100 other amazing directors. |

Fire: Walk With Me....rounding out my Twin Peaks experience
|
Fire Walk With Me is great. And really scary.
|
Quote:
i'd say Twin Peaks, man. i love watching that show. i especially like re-watching the whole series since the pilot itself is pure genius. |
the Pilot could have been a movie.
|
I found Fire: Walk With Me a let down in comparison.

The Harder They Come: 8/10
|
![]() Wow. The opening scene alone was jaw-dropping, true art house mastery. In 1969 this beauty was made, and no wonder Kubrick loved this, its probably one of the most fresh and inventive movies made in the late 60's. Shinnosuke "Peter" Ikehata is the hottest Japanese male to exist on this Earth. 11/10 Jim O'Rourke's(!) essay on the film atsonicpark, I thank you for the recommendation |
