Well, okay. Fair.
I feel terrible and this is why I don't generally participate in these... I ain't a mind-reader and the stakes are too high!!!
I do apologize.
Don't take it so seriously! It's all meant in fun and the stakes could not possibly be lower. I hope you will continue to participate.

Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by lester1/2jr - July 10, 2026, 05:29:51 PMXtro (1982) - This movie has a 5 and also a 1/2 star review on letterboxed. The title makes you think there's going to be a huge killer robot but it's not like that at all. It's conventional enough pacing wise, but has an odd, nightmare-ish tone, like if you went over someone's house for dinner and they were eating rice pilaf and bugs off the floor or something. Society meets The Twilight Zone via a straight to video horror attempt?
A little kid's Dad is abducted by aliens, then comes back different but wanting to be a part of his son's life. Very soon, the kid's toys are coming to life and his Dad is raiding his son's pet snake aquarium to eat the snake's eggs. In other words, there's trouble brewing.
It's a British film and has some different sensibilities due to that. An American director would have played the whole thing more for laughs, i think. Maryam d'Abo was one of the hottest women on Earth at this point and is topless twice, but neither of the two main character guys are the slightest bit interested in her and instead are both longing for the homeless looking Siouxie and the Banshees head of household lady. The special effects are great, but relatively infrequent/ heavier at the end.
I watched it in one night. It was an assault on the senses for sure, but I was in the mood for it. Would make an interesting double bill with The Manitou.
4.5 /5
