Trap.

Thought this had a solid enough premise: a serial killer who is taking his daughter to a concert realises that the police and FBI are there to capture him. It plays well enough until the final third, where the singer they went to see suddenly gets more involved in the plot, but while mostly ok does lack the acting skills to really carry off the part. Her involvement felt like a jarring twist. After I watched the film, I googled to see if she was a real singer, which it turns out she was, as well as being the director's daughter. Played slightly differently, this would have been a solid 4, maybe even pushing to a 5 if I was in the right mood.

Think this is already listed? Unless there's multiple Django films. I only know of I believe this one and the Tarantino one.


yeah it's been said.

still on 62.

62. FRIDAY FOSTER (1975)

never met a girl Friday, but there was a girl at my school whose first name was actually 'Tuesday' !

The Tarantino was Django "Unchained".....
Yes. But was the only other Django one I knew of but wasn't sure if there were other like sequels or remakes or anything

Quote from: Jim H on September 03, 2026, 12:04:47 AMI know I've seen a few but I can't easily name them off-hand.  One that I do distinctly remember is Hunting Emma (aka Jagveld) because it was in Afrikaans.  I thought it was reasonably entertaining and well-made, but I'm also a sucker for takes on the Most Dangerous Game formula.

There's another film made here using that formula called LETHAL WOMAN (1989) which isn't all that bad. 😊

Went to a friend's house and watched two Bruce Lee knock off films...

Goodbye Bruce Lee: His Last Game of Death (1975) - What a shameless godawful cash grab of a film.  Just embarrassingly badly made, horribly shot, terrible fight scenes, awful introduction, boring as hell.  It's the worst Bruce Lee knockoff I've seen BY FAR.  But the song that plays several times in the film, King of Kung Fu - really catchy and fun, and I swear I'm not lying, Rebecca De Mornay wrote it when she was 16.

Bruce And The Iron Finger - This one is MUCH better, and actually has two or three different copycat Bruce actors, many likely recognize Bruce Leung from Kung Fu Hustle or the legendary Dragon Lives Again.  Pretty good fight scenes, lots of them, much better shot and edited too.  Bruce Leung is a side character but has better screen presence and charisma here I thought than Li - his character is also more likable, which is kind of funny.  The plot is silly and reminds me of the later American-made but Hong Kong crewed Blood Moon.  The final freeze frame gag is hilarious.  Worth watching for sure.
