I would say that 1 out of 50 movies that TRY actually succeed at mixing horror and comedy -- Behind The Mask is a good horror movie, that has tons of like elbow-to-the-ribs of slasher fans. PLUS the idea of making it a documentary and then BAM turning it INTO a slasher movie (changing even teh LOOK of the film it's being shot on itself) was brilliant.

Director's Notes
One of the main purposes for me in making “Saturn Returns” was to investigate contemporary multi-culturalism in a central western city, and to use the relations between the people portrayed in the film in order to ask whether what we conceive of as “inter-cultural” only disguises what has already become one global social-class system. Is there only one culture, one system, or are there still multiple cultures?If this centralized system of multi-culturism exists, it would naturally assist maintaining a political economic status quo in the guise of multi-culturalism. However, other groups or individuals, that we would first imagine were only victims of this system, can use it too, as a tool. For example, immigrants trumpeting traditional values and reactionary ideals in order to better assimilate in their new environment or in order to free themselves from the rules of a system that does not seek their benefit. Berlin, as the main setting for this story, brings its own troubled history into the mix, both as the home-base of one of the greatest “culturally” motivated crimes in history, and as it was immediately afterwards controlled by two opposite economic and political systems that co-existed for almost half a century. These histories, un-functional shadows of value systems, are the broken tools befitting scattered peoples, who lost their self-proclaimed persona. These are the people that are portrayed in this film. |

The Player rules. I love Robert Altman. That opening 9 minute shot or whatever, in one take.. one of the greatest ever.
I've just been watching Duckman. |

Just watched Encounters at the End of the World, by Werner Herzog.
Excellent, and an off the hook soundtrack. |
