A night to remember the classics.
Movie Viewers who are secretly infected by an alien virus, Another week, another movie, another good movie! We watched ‘The Thing’ from 1982. We watched mostly for Kurt Russell’s amazing hat, but the special effects also held up really nicely. There can be shitty physical effects from the 80’s that don’t hold up, these are awesome.
Movie Apocalypse Survivors, Last week in the year 2017 we watched what will happen after World War 4 in 2024. We took down an epic movie night albatross that has been tempting us from the beginning. A Boy and His Dog (1975)Like most movies from 1975 this one dragged in places… but also had things that you’d never see in modern movies (so much cheerful rape!) but that ending thou…
Movie Metal Heads, Last week we watched the most metal movie of all time! DEATHGASM! But like most horror comedies or movies that don’t involve paying for an abortion at the end… I’ve forgotten all the details.
Small turnout for this movie which included Bill Erskine, Goins, Q, and myself. Goins and Q made it about half way through but to their credit the movie was rather long and we started about 20 minutes late. I loved this movie. It’s a bit hard to understand the combination of their cockney accents and the 1960’s slang but it’s better than reading subtitles any day of the week. I’m looking at you Erskine. 🙂
Movie Lions, Sorry I didn’t send this earlier, I wrote most of this last week. I probably won’t be able to make it tonight. So there was a pretty small group for this week. We couldn’t find a copy of Q’s first choice movie “Crocodile Fury” that wasn’t fully in French. That may be the only way it exists. So we went with a movie that has been bouncing around the list for a while, ROAR! from 1981. The film was never actually released in the US until Drafthouse films released it in 2015. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT.
Movie Cranks, We did it, we knocked another one off the list of ‘Movies that I should have probably seen in 2006 but never really cared to’. We watched Crank.
Movie Dikinis, Last week in a fit of madness we watched a great movie. A movie from 1988 that holds up in every way, even special effects if you squint your eyes a little. Mother flippin WILLOW, hit the music!
Movie Samurais, Last week we watched one of those movies again. The ones you have to read (damn you Erskine, making us cultured and sophisticated) Luckily for him it also had a healthy dose of Blood and Nudity. It’s only a day later and I already feel the plot slipping away from me, so here we go. and obviously read everything i write with some kind of slow motion Quinten Tarentino vibe.
NO RECAP???
Its review time again gents. Hopefully I’m not stealing anyone’s thunder this week, I have a few moments to myself while I power through this ruby red grapefruit at my desk. I need something to take my mind of the sour bitterness that is this fruit. Last week Shibbs chose Cat’s Eye, a collection of three Stephen King short stories that are presented in movie form with the only thing tying them together is a random stray cat who is eventually named General.
