Last post by HappyGilmore - November 16, 2025, 11:55:42 PMThe only "name" actor in that cast list I recognize is Spencer Breslin. Thought he still acting honestly.
There's more public domain movies coming, all from different companies.
Only ones I've watched so far are the Pooh-niverse films out of England. The Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare one was the best one of the three I've watched so far, but I dug them all.

Black Angels (1970)
https://youtu.be/57uSnAVOQZk?si=dvAiEcRlPW4x5W5p
Plot? What plot? Oh yeah, so.....
A young black biker plans to become leader of his gang by killing the leader of a white gang, but after a ridiculously long chase, he's killed in a crash.... He takes the boy's "colors" back to the black gang & tries to smooth things out & goes back to his own gang.....
Meanwhile, a stranger shows up posing as a stereotypical southern racist who wants to join the gang... One gang member is suspicious of everything about the guy, while the leader thinks he's okay....
At that same time, a local cop visits each gang & convinces them that the other is about to move in on their territory.....
Amusingly, this movie uses pretty much every cliché I've ever heard of, with lots of long drawn out scenes of rides & bad music.... Only exception, there's a central figure who's not really a protagonist... None of the characters have any redeeming qualities.....

James Bond and a lovely Russian computer wizard must stop a former double-0 and a rogue Soviet general, who've teamed up to take control of a laser satellite weapon. Lots of stuff explodes in the process.
After two lukewarm entries with Timothy Dalton in the tuxedo, Pierce Brosnan's first spin as 007 brought the Bond franchise back in a big way. Tons of action packed fun from start to finish.

Last post by Gabriel Knight - November 16, 2025, 08:17:08 PMBRICK (2005). I had to turn it off because I couldn't understand a single word of what they were saying. Even with subtitles, I find it hard to follow because they talk so damn fast and with the most ridiculous slang you could possibly hear. I have no clue what they were thinking when they came up with that dialog.

Murder by Television (1935)
https://youtu.be/N5RoAznF9cI?si=F_5V2Wjoo-9cCgem
Back when there were only a few TV stations in the world, a scientist invents a way to broadcast around the globe without the need for repeaters & before the invention of satellites.... Of course, businesses & governments everywhere want to get their paws on this new doo-dad, but the scientist wants to keep it....
Then, during a live, worldwide demonstration, he dies, and the movie turns into a head scratching who-done-it...
About an hour long, with choppy editing, and a pair of ethnic house servants who live up to antiquated stereotypes...
Been meaning to watch this for years, & now it's over with...
Gonna try & make it a twofer tonight!

What Was That Film? / Episode from an anthology seri...
Last post by Gabriel Knight - November 16, 2025, 08:06:06 PMHi friends. I'm looking for an episode of an anthology series, probably from the 90s or mid-2000s. Here are some scenes from it:
* The protagonist is an adult woman.
* She has a recurring nightmare where she's floating in outer space, and next to her is an astronaut.
* She's deeply affected by these nightmares, and I believe she was in therapy.
* At one point, she remembers having an astronaut doll/toy as a child that she accidentally threw away.
* There's a scene where the woman rummages through the trash (even the garbage truck's garbage), trying to retrieve the toy. When she finds it, the nightmares seemingly disappear.
* The tone was serious, slow-paced, and somewhat surreal.
Let me know if something shakes up from this. Thanks!

Last post by M.10rda - November 16, 2025, 07:35:58 PMDOCTOR X (1932):
Another one I watched because someone here reviewed it recently (quote-unquote?) but I couldn't find it w/ the Search function.
From the director who later gave the world CASABLANCA (ahem), DOCTOR X is a lot of fun for a while but ultimately its many inherent flaws catch up with it. The titular Doctor (Lionel Atwill, naturally) seems promisingly sinister or capable but ultimately accomplishes nothing except getting some people murdered (unintentionally!). The alluring central murder mystery (lunacy! brain surgery! cannibalism!) has to cheat to deliver a twist. Entirely too much time is invested in a nonsensical and irritating romantic subplot (siiiiiiigh) involving the incredibly off-putting pencil-necked male lead Lee Tracy. I've seen him in other early 30s flicks but once Spencer Tracy and Jimmy Cagney arrived on the scene, Hollywood thankfully showed Lee the door.
In spite of all these shortcomings, DOCTOR X was worth a watch as an historical document and (aesthetically) as a museum piece. Throw a brick at the screen at any time during DOCTOR X and you'll hit an influence on THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. Obviously there's Fay Wray (fetching here as a brunette), and Doctor X himself is name-checked in "Science Fiction Double Feature". I guess we could cite the casual cannibalism, too. But how 'bout the Doctor Scott-lookin' scientist in the wheelchair who (inevitably we learn) isn't actually paralyzed?
And, most pervasively, there's the look of the film, one of the earliest (four-)color features. Atwill's eccentric estate is unquestionably appointed by the same Transsexual Transylvanian interior decorator that did Frank's mansion... and that extends even to the decadent use of gels on every light source.
I don't think I was even aware that DOCTOR X was shot and initially released in Technicolor until I started watching it and read the title card about Industrial Light & Magic's work to restore the original visuals. Heck, DOCTOR X is so saturated with lurid color (mostly green), it might as well be the first Argento-style giallo! I turned off my brain after a while and just enjoyed looking at it.
3/5
Okay, SPOILER: The killer is the most interesting suspect who is quickly eliminated from being a suspect for reasons which are later defeated by some of the most confounding anti-science rhetoric this side of RFK JR's DHHS. But mildly attentive viewers will have already spotted this suspect throwing himself through a glass door, midway through the film, then immediately thereafter telling other characters he was pushed, when quite obviously he wasn't. Between this bizarre narrative oversight and the climactic revelation that he somehow has fine-motor control over a hollow rubber hand placed over his stump.......
...well, Michael Curtiz was good at putting his budget onscreen, anyway.

Last post by Alex - November 16, 2025, 02:34:56 PMI watched one of the Micky Mouse horror movies. All the way through I kept thinking "This is a Brown Jenkins film directed by Stuart Gordon". It was passable as a slasher, and I can't imagine the Betty Boop one being much different. I suspect I'll end up watching it when I am bored on nights though.
