Bad Movies / "Scarlet Warning 666" AKA "Sca...
Last post by Rev. Powell - May 13, 2026, 05:23:26 PMA legendary "lost" bad film. Read the insane story from Grindhouse Releasing:
https://shop.grindhousereleasing.com/products/palmer-rockeys-scarlet-warning-666-deluxe-3-disc-blu-ray-set-only-3000-numbered-units
I read about this in the old Book of the Subgenius, where Rev. Ivan Stang raved, "NO MAN can even barely begin to conceive of the PURITY OF PSYCHOSIS displayed by this motion picture without actually seeing it." I wasn't even sure it was a real movie, and was pretty sure I would never get the chance to see it; now it's sitting on my wishlist, just waiting for me to click "buy."
This trailer should whet your appetite: https://youtu.be/-nEGNxW-pk4?si=Q1DTInvg7lXOR7dE

Off Topic Discussion / Re: My mom just had a stroke
Last post by chainsaw midget - May 13, 2026, 12:13:50 PMIt's been almost a week. Feels like a month or more. She's still not talking much and acting odd (butr not nearly as odd as she was) and they're still running additional tests. It was a stroke.
She's still in the hospital and they're waiting on some test results.
Right now they say that once she gets out, it's probabaly a good idea to have her spend some time in a physical therapy center.

Solved / Re: Comedy and fantasy movie -...
Last post by claws - May 13, 2026, 11:14:09 AMI have never seen High Spirits. I wouldn't know if AI was correct 
It did find me three Hindi movies I've seen on YouTube ages ago, and thought I would never see again, so I thought I'd give it a shot with this one.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by M.10rda - May 13, 2026, 11:12:48 AMCATCH ME IF YOU CAN (2002):
Second viewing - saw it in the theater in '02. It's held up well and falls into that pleasant category of Spielberg that's compelling but not mawkish or exploitative. (Come to think of it, most of my least favorite Spielbergs were released in the late 90s/early 00s around this one.) Hanks does a broad Boston accent and says the F-word, and DiCaprio is typically artificial/superficial/insincere in a way that works nicely, as of course he's playing a con artist. (I don't dislike DiCaprio but I think he's kind of a middling leading man - his best performances were the early supporting ones.)
It is a lot of fun to watch Hollywood films like this that are (now) decades old, just to see who will pop up for seconds or literally one shot. In this case it's Elizabeth Banks and Jennifer Garner, both of whom seem like they were already famous in 2002 but were probably thrilled to be in a Spielberg picture.
But the best reason to revisit CMIYC - probably its sole enduring claim to relevance - is Christopher Walken giving one of his best performances. This was only the second time he was nominated for an Oscar... of course he won for DEER HUNTER. In Walken's strongest scene (having dinner with DiCaprio in a pricey NYC restaurant) he recalls meeting his ex-wife in Europe during WW2... gets choked up and goes speechless for a moment, then struggles to regain his words. He basically does the same trick that earned his Oscar in his best scene in DEER HUNTER - and you know what? That same trick still works! Walken, what an incredible actor. 4/5
