Great reaction gifs.

I've heard a lot of good things about Ouija: Origin of Evil actually (even from people who hated the first film), and I've been thinking about going to see it as well. I even watched the first Ouija yesterday just in case there was something relevant to the new film, though if I had my time back I probably wouldn't have.





Iron Man 3 (2013)




Please hold your applause till after the me.

No one hates the first Ouija more than me, I was going into tear this film a new one, but it was really well directed.

This made me chuckle.

At first I thought this looked like complete garbage. Then I saw another trailer featuring more scenes that actually didn't look too bad, though at times the acting made me cringe. Now between you giving it a 4 and MM mentioning it's directed by Flanagan (which I actually didn't know) I'm curious about the actual outcome. Count me in.



Women will be your undoing, Pépé
Apparently Preminger had a really difficult time working with the studio to get it done, but he was contractually obliged. He absolutely hated working with Marilyn Monroe, and Mitchum struggled with alcoholism at the time. The studio wanted a classic revenge tale in usual Western style, whilst Preminger's vision and shooting style was different. Apparently he didn't care too much how it turned out and let the studio edit it how they wished. Strange because I love Westerns, Otto Preminger, Robert Mitchum and Marilyn Monroe, so it could have been fantastic, I guess it's just one of those things.

Wow, this movie REALLY had a lot going against it and, sadly, it does come through.
Pity, since this had SO MUCH potential. . . Thanks for the details about the problems occurring during the filming.




In Order of Disappearance (Norway)
++ Caught this on On Demand and VERY glad to have seen it. The trailer stated that it had a Coen Brothers/Tarantio vibe, which it did while still having its own flavor and style. A quirky revenge story seasoned with dark comedy.




(REWATCH) Ghost in the Shell
Been a few decades since last seeing this - was doing a rewatch for the Sci-Fi List with a strong possibility of making my list.



Evil Dead (2013)- 7/10

Watched the newest remake of Evil Dead tonight. Disgustingly brilliant. Exceeded my expectations.



Welcome to the human race...
John Wick -


Great, now the wait for the sequel is going to feel even longer.

Down By Law - 7.5/10

Kind of a weak start, but turned out real good. I don't think Tom Waits can act. Lurie starts awful in that role, but his acting in the second half is good and Roberto Benigni is very good.

WARNING: "Spoiler" spoilers below
My favorite escape scene ever!







Sorry if I'm rude but I'm right
I really wish all these movie database sites had porn flicks on them. This way I would've exceeded 5k movies ages ago! Well, at least some of them have Deep Throat as a classic film.

The Bib-iest of Nickels

1986 was a terrific year for horror and science fiction. Not only did we have the second installment in the Alien franchise and one of my favorites in David Cronenberg's The Fly, but we had Chopping Mall! Now, in seriousness, this film which features an early performance from Barbara Crampton (who appeared in seriously good horror gem Re-Animator the year before) isn't the highest caliber of material. It's a cheesy, light-heart b-movie about a group of teenage employees who are having a party inside a shopping mall after dark, all's well and good until the newly automated security robots turn rogue and start butchering everything in-sight.
The film starts with all the familiar tropes of the low-budget underbelly, complete with campy characters and a gratuitous amount of topless females. From there though, it really brings in the cornball charm the eighties could always encompass so well. You've got the cast scrambling all around, running away from these security robots that look less intimidating than the vacuum cleaner from the Teletubbies. The violence is over-the-top and the special-effects are ridiculous as well, featuring robots shooting laser beams and exploding body parts.
For all its faults, Chopping Mall is exactly what it's meant as, a light-heart, gleeful affair that is short and silly.
