Good Movies / 100 COLOR movies

Last post by Rev. Powell - Today at 10:11:10 AM

Actually, they can be black and white. Post 100 movies with a color in the title. Should be easy and far fewer questionable cases than the "food" topic.

It's a bit ragged but I liked A USEFUL GHOST. Currently my 3rd-ranked film of the year overall and my top foreign film.

No way it's as cool as its title, but I've always wanted to give "The Blood on Satan's Claw" a spin.

A Useful Ghost (2025)

This is a bait and switch movie. It starts out as a deadpan comedy about possessed electrical appliances, and then suddenly switches to commentary about the bloody crackdown on the opposition by the Thai dictatorship in 2010.
Other themes include labour conditions, homosexuality (with quite a bit of man on man sex), the pressure of family expectations and being a Thai with Chinese heritage. At times funny, touching and thought provoking.

If this movie is anything to go by, Thai people are very matter of fact about ghosts.
