Should have won an Oscar for Bubba Ho-Tep. That is a hill I'm willing to die on.

Don't disagree.

A USEFUL GHOST (2025): A man falls for a vacuum cleaner possessed by the ghost of his dead wife. The beginning of this absurdist-realism feature presents itself as a whimsical romantic comedy, but the script reveals darker purposes when the 2010 Thai military crackdown that killed almost 200 people becomes a plot point. 3.5/5.

I have been wondering about that one

Recommended to art-house audiences who love eccentricity.

Have you considered substituting a King Tiger with a M-47 with a Robert Shaw figure in the hatch?

 Technically, I don't have a US military force (Kristi does and she let's me borrow hers if I need anything from it). She does have a Patton in there though. Well, two Pattons. One figure of the general, and one of the tank.

^ I hate to tell you this, but LONDON AFTER MIDINGHT's last known surving print was destroyed in a nitrate fire at MGM in 1965. No known print has seen the light of day since. It has NEVER- even before 1965- been available in 8mm and most certainly not VHS or BETA. Perhaps you are thinking of another "London" or Chaney film. but I can state  on my mother's grave it was not LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT. It hasn't even been publicly shown since 1927! Being silent films went out of favor a few years after it's release.

From Chainsaw's original post: "I did NOT watch the actual movie.  I watched the Turner Classic Movies restoration, which uses the original script and a LOT of movie stills to retell the picture.  It's honestly more of a slideshow than a real movie."

Reminds me of all the early silent films in South Africa which were destroyed through complete ignorance and stupidity 🙄😳
