Good Movies / Re: Recent Viewings, Part 2
Last post by Trevor - Today at 02:06:09 PMQuote from: lester1/2jr on July 24, 2026, 04:14:54 PMThe Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane (1977) - I recently read all the recent viewings reviews in both the old and the new threads. When I finished...I started over again and this was one from the second round, or maybe I didn't go back far enough the first time. At any rate, it was my own review and I liked it more this time. It's generally a "creepy kid" horror like Devil Times 5 or The Omen, but much more of a drama and the evil is more debatable (maybe just "quite resourceful kid"? )
Jodie Foster, Martin Sheen, and deceptive Matthew Modine imitator Scott Jacoby lend their talents to this low budget (mostly takes place in the living room of a house), dank, and unpredictable tale of a young (Jewish?) girl and her struggle to survive in some random town while being bothered by adults who want her to do stuff like attend school. It's hard to have an interesting movie that takes place just in a living room, so some fairly jaw dropping stuff happens, aided by the excellent acting performances.
Jodie Foster is somehow always obviously a lesbian, but so enigmatic and brainiac seeming that it somehow doesn't matter. She, of course, become a huge star in Taxi Driver circa the year before, so this is, I guess, her Corvette Summer (Mark Hamill) .
4.5 / 5
I had a crush on Jodie Foster in the 70s and that was the reason my folks let me watch this.
I got so scared by it that I couldn't drink tea for a week afterwards 😉

I do not like New Order (at all), but I was interested in listening to the remixes by some musicians I do like (especially Howie B). Turns out the Howie was the only one I liked. Oh well.
never was a fan of New Order but they've somehow done 2 tracks I absolutely love, 'Regret' and 'True Faith'... I can live without everything else!
similarly I can't stand Joy Division, although I really like Love Will Tear Us Apart.

YouTube post won't work for me.
It hasn't worked for anyone since the last forum update a while back. All you can do is provide a link.

"Atomic Horror" was popular during the 1950s, and still lived on in the 1970s.
Terror Circus (1973)
Phase IV (1974) Cosmic radiation, but still radiation.
The Hills Have Eyes (1977)
yeah EMPIRE OF THE ANTS has that premise as well... :)
Quote from: M.10rda on July 24, 2026, 07:27:31 AMThis one has occasionally occurred to me:
Fulci's THE BEYOND
Argento's INFERNO
Polanski's THE NINTH GATE
Michael Winner's THE SENTINEL
...All are about occult (in the literal sense) or cryptic portals to the netherworld, just hangin' out surreptitiously though more or less in plain sight. There must be more movies in this unofficial universe that I've yet to recall...
INFERNO is part of its own Argento trilogy as well isn't it? not sure if the other 2 SUSPIRIA and MOTHER OF TEARS would really fit into that universe you've described though

Last post by Rev. Powell - Today at 10:30:53 AMI reviewed UGLY STEPSISTER in the recent theatrical viewings thread when it came out. I felt about it about like you did (also gave it a 4/5).
