Bad Movies / Re: After Last Season (2009)
Last post by M.10rda - January 17, 2026, 05:04:56 PMA few relevant replies before I attempt my own thesis here:
It is absolutely evident that the cast is completely confused. Although I don't place a great deal of confidence in the main actor's perceptiveness, I don't reject the possibility that the main actor is incidentally correct that Region had little clue how to produce this movie. I was just taking all possibilities into consideration...
Are you acknowledging that you watched AFTER LAST SEASON twice...???
I don't know if I can watch this again. Thus I may need to cede this point to you and take your word for it. Based on one viewing, it seems clear that there is a "real story hiding somewhere in this mess". That is, in fact, the foundation for my thesis for why ALS ends up seeming as senseless and bad as it does: Region had a fairly simple and straightforward story about a ghost and a serial killer (or whatever he is) and human beings learning to communicate with the ghost to foil the killer. That isn't a totally unusual plot - but Region runs it through a woodchipper and makes complete mince of it. HOWEVER... you watched it twice and I didn't - thus I defer to you, sir!
YES - and this is one challenge (anyway) to what I surmise was Region's plan. He thought he was clever in telling a simple story in an alluring (read: convoluted) way... but if you still got the idea from the trailer... why sit through the whole painful movie?
[/quote]
It does make sense, if one thinks about it: Something happened "last season" (Craig died) and the movie takes place "after" that thing that happened (Craig is now a ghost).
The major issue again is - why should anyone bother to think about it???
The title is a great example of Region's urge to overcomplicate everything... and specifically an example of his use of linguistic (not film) grammar to seem interesting or clever or profound... yet (in gestalt) his attempt "makes no sense".
Yes - this. 100%. Cont'd...
Quote from: Rev. Powell on January 16, 2026, 09:53:42 AMI'm pretty sure Region just blatantly lied about the budget.
If Region had done all this intentionally, he wouldn't have pulled the film from distribution.
The lead actor also verifies that Region had no idea what he was doing and that the cast was completely confused during filming.

Quote from: Rev. Powell on December 02, 2010, 09:02:30 PMThe results are so incoherent and disorienting that it takes two viewings just to verify that there is not a real story hiding somewhere in this mess.

The title also makes no sense

Quote from: Rev. Powell on December 02, 2010, 09:02:30 PMWatching After Last Season is like trying to follow a old timey radio monologue on an AM radio station with fading reception: you can tell there's a voice trying to make itself heard, but the transmission is so garbled that the basics of the story become lost in static and long stretches of dead air...

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by Rev. Powell - January 17, 2026, 03:47:43 PMOn the other end of the spectrum:
RIFFTRAX: THE GUY FROM HARLEM: The movie is about a guy from Harlem who lives and works as a detective in Miami and never once mentions Harlem, who fights the confusing schemes of local whitey bodybuilder/gangster Big Daddy. The underlying movie is one of the worst Rifftrax has ever done, a nothing of a film that's basically a backyards version of SHAFT with no budget, limited action, and no actors of note or talent; for some reason, this is one of the team' most popular efforts, probably because of the novelty of it being the only true blaxploitation movie in the riffing catalog. 3/5.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by Rev. Powell - January 17, 2026, 02:59:32 PMIT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT (2025): In modern Iran, former political prisoner Vahid kidnaps a man he thinks was his primary torturer, but he can't be 100% sure of his target's identity. Jafar Panahi's latest is about the central dilemma of resisting tyranny: how can we fight monsters without becoming monsters ourselves? 4/5.
As an aside, it was an interesting look at the casual culture of bribery/tipping in modern Iran: it seems like every interaction with a stranger results in a request for money (or more money). One security guard carries a credit card reader along on his rounds so he can accept bribes by debit card.
