RIP John Saxxon. What did you watch to honor him?

[kornula]

Last night, we watched THE PRISONERS OF THE LOST UNIVERSE.   

The first glaring mistake I noticed was the film failing to pass off South Africa as California when the cars all had steering wheels on the right hand side.   It goes downhill after that.

Enter the Dragon & Cannibal Apocalypse. The second of those is a film he said he'd wished he'd never been in.

[FatFreddysCat]

Gonna spin either "Battle Beyond the Stars" or "Hands of Steel" aka "Atomic Cyborg" when I get a chance.

[claws]

I've actually watched Beyond Evil (1980) last week Tuesday.

[zombie no.one]

wasn't aware he passed away, sad   

having a look at AFTERSHOCK on youtube. never heard of it until now but seems fun

not seen BLACK XMAS in at least 10 yrs so might go for that too

[pennywise37]

nothing but i really need to, he did so much crap that it's not even funny but there really aren't that many of his films that i did see to be honest.

[Ted C]

I missed this news, but I will certainly watch "Enter the Dragon".

[pennywise37]

ya i keep forgetting that i even have that to be honest, i had borrowed it from a friend of mine the DVD i mean years ago and than he passed away and i never had a chance to give it back to him so it's mine now apparently. now i just need to watch it

It's no wonder you belong to this website.

I haven't seen BLACK CHRISTMAS in many years.  That movie is good.

you know that film was kind of ruined for me, i found out about the ending before i saw it and so i didn't love it like many of here do i'm sure. what i didn't expect was to enjoy the remake better and i'm not taking about the one that came out last year i haven't seen that one to be fair. but the remake from what (2006)  i had high expectations for the Original they were low for the remake.

but having said that i'm not saying the Original is a bad film at all cause it isn't.  i really don't remember if i've said that before and if i have i apologize

You don't have to apologize to anybody, you're entitled to your opinion.  I myself dislike MARY POPPINS and THE SOUND OF MUSIC... and the're great films.  

[pennywise37]

well you know how some people are when it comes to comes movies, personally i think the film No country for old men (2007) is one of the worst movies i've ever seen it's just a boring ass confusing mess when i had to go look up online to see what happened to it's lead. 

but that film won best film of the year go figure. i don't hate the cohen bros though barton Fink (1991) is genius i think

[zombie no.one]

No Country is quite stylish in its own way but it's so bleak I couldn't really warm to it... It's like the hollow shell of a Coen bros movie.

about to watch HANDS OF STEEL. I've got the 88films blueray. somehow I forgot John Saxon was in it until FatFreddysCat mentioned it

also one of the stuntmen helicopter pilots died during production

[zelmo73]

I honored his passing with Enter The Dragon (1973). That's really the only movie that I ever liked him in.

[pennywise37]

really? he's great in Elm Street 1  and 3 and 7 as well anyways i don't hate the cohen bros actually growing up i loved Raising Arizona (1987) but i cannot tell you the last time i saw it i think i was in my 20's so i have no idea what i'd think of it now. i also do love The Hudsucker Proxy (1994) that film is utterly brilliant.

i think i mentioned that i did see Burn While Reading (2008) and though it was a bit better than no country for old men (2007) it still was a meh film and clooney and pitt was just simply awful in it.  i mean Clooney was Return of the killer Tomatoes (1988) bad in it.

and i have been a fan of Clooney since his Roseanne Days actually. i keep forgetting to look up what other films i've seen him in. one he was in but only in a cameo is "It Should Happen to you (1954) it's also Jack Lemmon' s1st film as well and a pretty good one too. if you watch it and are curious Saxon is in the park taking pictures. i think he had to be 18 when he made that one. he also was in "The Evil Eye (1963) and i think that was one i thought was pretty good

than you have the classic and i say that loosely "Mitchell' (1975) i say it like that cause it's my favorite all time favorite MSTK3000 episode and i just love that episode so much. growing up i liked My Mom's a Werewolf (1989) but i dunno about now though cause i haven't seen it in years! i do love him in Beverly Hills Cop 3. (1994) see i love all 3 of those while most people seem to hate part 3 i don't i love them all
