Either he's dead or my watch has stopped!


« on: October 24, 2018, 11:07:27 AM »

I watched THE WANDERERS (1979) on TCM the other night.  I haven't seen that in nearly 40 years!!!  I remembered it well enough, it was even more surreal than I'd thought, but it had all the gangs, violence, and sex I remembered right!   TeddyR 

THE WANDERERS reminded me of all the GANG MOVIES that I usually enjoy... I won't name anymore and leave it to you all...

Do motorcycle gangs count?
If so, the WILD ANGEL'S with Peter Fonda and Bruce Dern is fantatic!

Of course they count and that's a GOOD one.

I was a fan of the Young and Dangerous series, as trashy as they are about triads in Hong Kong

The Warriors as mentioned above is my go-to favourite though. That soundtrack is killer.

Remember it? I have the DVD! And let's not forget that Ray Sharkey is in it (basically, an extra)

ACROSS 110TH STREET (1972) is fantastic.
This movie comes closest what the Bronx looked like when I lived there in 1979.
I never seen cops shoot it out but, that's what the Bronx looked like. Only in 1979, it was much worse.
It looked like Berlin in 1946. No s**t.

I don't know if I've seen that.  I know the title... Cool.  


I was thinking of DEAD END (1937).  There's so much to like about it, first 'cause it's HUMPHREY BOGART's first great movie after PETRIFIED FOREST.  I love when his mother slaps him and threatens to "crack yer face again!"

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
