Watched True Romance for the first time this week. It was alright. I might have taken more away from it if I hadn't already seen Badlands.

[Cthulhu]

I just watched The Stuff.
Fun movie.

season 2

Decadent Evil (2005) - A vampire babe has two other hot young vampire babes under her control.  The plan is to bite 10,000 people and she becomes invincible.  She's up in the 9,990's.  It plays out much like you'd expect for a Full Moon movie, with Phil Fondacaro as the vampire hunter.  The first 10 minutes was flashbacks to some previous movie I hadn't seen, and totally unnecessary because the main characters from the flashback weren't in this movie at all.  I don't quite know what to think of this - I watched half it it one night and thought it was crap.  I watched the second half a different night and thought it was pretty good.  ?  I guess (2+4)/2 = about 3/5.

ANGST - I bought a Mills Creek 12 pack called "The Blood Bath" collection and watched this movie this morning when I woke up with a sinus headache and couldn't get back to sleep.  It features a young woman with severe sexual issues, a pair of attractive Siamese twins, an artsy young loser, and an armed bank robbery in a plot that resembles TEETH combined with LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS.  Let me put it this way: if you hear the phrase "Feed me!!!" coming from a woman's nether regions, RUN!

Double-headed double feature:

THE MANSTER (1961): A mad scientist corrupts a foreign correspondent in Tokyo, eventually turning him into a monster---I mean, a MANster.  Silly title, silly film, but it does have an exotic psychotronic atmosphere, with transformations, geishas, infidelity, theremins, hyperactive overacting, and an erupting volcano.  Incredibly, this schlock originally played on a double bill with the surreal horror masterpiece EYES WITHOUT A FACE.  You could go as high as 2.5/5 with this one if you're in the mood for a monster flick.

HOW TO GET AHEAD IN ADVERTISING (1989): Suffering a nervous breakdown because he can't come up with a campaign for pimple cream, a hot shot advertising exec grows a boil on his neck, which soon develops a face and a nasty personality.  Does he need a dermatologist, or a psychologist?  This weird and witty advertising satire from the director of WITHNAIL AND I has been sadly neglected over the years.  4/5.

The Exorcist: Director's Cut (1973) Blu-ray

"That thing upstairs is not my daughter!" - I just love love love this movie. Green vomit in HD has to be seen  5/5

Cropsey-Interesting, entertaining movie.

season 2

Such a great show! I watched seasons 1,2 on DVD and I've been waiting forever for the 3rd to hit shelves.

Inception. It blew my mind almost just as much as it did in theaters. 10/10. Highly recommended!

The Expendables 2010...

I LOVED that automatic shotgun! Damn that thing was LOUD! Movie was good too.

[Kaseykockroach]

The first two Tremors movies. Not quite as fun as they used to be (the romantic plot tumors really bring both down for me), but Kevin Bacon's, Fred Ward's and (of course) Michael Gross' performances are excellent. Dare I watch the next two? I remember the third being mostly stupid-in-a-bad-way (though the Ass-blaster kicks...major butt).

The Black Room (1984)

Twisted tale about a blood-draining couple renting out exotic apartment for needy fantasy-sex people. Odd but engaging dark thriller with moments of horror. 4/5

[Jack]

The Graveyard (2006) - A group of friends play a prank on a guy and he accidentally winds up dead.  One of them spends 5 years in prison for this, and when he gets out, our folks get back together at the scene of the crime as a sort of healing experience for all of them.  Doesn't turn out that way - this is a slasher movie.  And a pretty good one overall.  The characters were actually likable, well developed and had semi-believable personalities.  Oh, it had a good helping of cheese to it as well.  I liked it!  4/5.

[Cthulhu]

Hell comes to Frogtown-I think this is a genuinely good movie.
Yeah, I'm crazy.
