posted the hilarious (fan made) trailer to this on Smerd's thread about shitty flicks you like, but since it fits the TE bill so nicely Neil Breen's masterpeice now has it's own page.

if ya unsure to invest in the whole movie - posted in the DOUBLE DOWN shoutbox where all the cool Breens hang - here's Rich Evans to dissect in a 5min nutshell. with Mike and Jay, but(t) Max Landis...

Can't recall is anyone posted this one or not yet... it's a FAB doco! Just watched it last night and thought it was great...highly entertaining and I love these lunatics!!!! If I was 20 yeras younger I might attempt it... not that I'd have a bat's chance in hell of finishing...

There were a couple of threads about this kind of thing on the IMDB board. I hope the person who started those threads comes here now... I can't remember who it was. At least one of the threads was about the Bill Paxton movie Frailty, and whether it could drive a crazy person to think their friends, neighbors, etc were demons. I thought the person who started the thread was making a fair point, although freedom of express... Continue »

These last few years have shown Arnold to try out some more emotional acting. There was some in 'Sabotage', more in 'Maggie', and it all culminates to 'Aftermath', probably the most bleak film he's done yet.

It's a movie about performances, really. Arnold goes to meet his family at the airport, only they never show. Something really bad has happened, and someone has to pay... but what if it wasn't entirely that someone's fault? What if it was an accident? It shows you what happens on both end... Continue »

Let's jump back into the late 80s for a second, to the heyday of pop slashers. Not even five years after the original film, we have three sequels and a tv show going. That's right... a sadistic child murder has warmed his way into the hearts of America. Maybe since he's so ugly, people view him more as a monster than a burnt human, and that makes it okay? *shrug*

This show is as old as I am, and I still never watched it all, and that's going to change. I might ramble on some of these episodes... Continue »

I've been thinking about these, seeing as how we're in the middle of one right now. I'm having fun with it, and we can all treat it as a glorious event of comeradery. We're all on a quest for some great recommendations.

What challenges do you know of? And of those, what's the rundown on the rules and what month is it? And WHY is it that month?


Obviously, the main deal is the October Challenge, where we have to watch 31 horror movies, and at least 16 have to be FTVs (first time viewings).... Continue »

Just thought someone here might be interested in this.

An unfinished Japanese film from the 90's finally completed and recently released on DVD. Running in at about 62 mins long.

If you liked Pandorum, I wanted to mention a couple of similar short stories, written way back in the 1940's.

One of them is called Far Centaurus, by A.E. Van Vogt. I discovered that story in about 4th or 5th grade, and it absolutely blew my mind. The idea is that a spaceship carrying a few astronauts in a form of drugged suspended animation travels to Alpha Centauri, the nearest star system outside of our own solar system. The voyage takes hundreds of years (500 years)... when they arri... Continue »

I was reminded of this twice, over the past week or two. Once because somehow the Jason Mewes vampire movie Bitten (2008) came up somewhere, either here or when I was talking to my brother... Bitten is VERY roughly comparable to VOfB, just in the look and feel of the film. The other time I was reminded of it was because Jodi Lyn O'Keefe has been on cable lately, in Halloween H20. She plays a vampire in VOfB. She barely even needs those funky white contact lenses they always give vampires in... Continue »

I've got a few episodes left of Shameless season 7, then I'll be caught up for the new season.

Been really enjoying Son of Zorn on FOX, the one about the animated warrior from Zephyria who moves to the live-action suburbs to raise his half-animated son. It's one of my new favorite comedies.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia season 12 has been amazing so far. In the season premiere, "The Gang Turns Black", and it was incredibly racist and one of the best things I've eve... Continue »

Thanks to @tommix for this recommendation in which he described as a Terminator rip-off of sorts. Sure, they both came out the same year, but they have some definite similarities. Both movies start in dystopian futures in which a man is sent back to protect the ancestor(s) of important future figures. Both sent back to mid-80s Los Angeles!

Trancers has some cool sci-fi stuff, laser guns, a fight with a possessed Santa, a time-stopping watch, hoboes, and more. I haven't seen a lot of Charles B... Continue »

How do you feel about the ongoing sagas that we've been watching for years, such as Star Wars, Alien, Blade Runner, etc? Do you think they're legitimately good, or do you think they cater to the 'member-berry crowd who wants to relive the positive aspects of their youth?

I'm probably the kind of guy who'll enjoy anything that's even slightly canon with one of my beloved franchises. Some film series will spiral out of control with their sequels, but some expand upon great ideas. I'll always welcome a sequel, so long as it respects the original. Continue »

Okay, so I could have put this in Horror Shorts thread or even the NSFW thread. But this is awesome enough to have its own thread. Continue »

To any users who add movies here, you'll notice the API stopped working for it. That's because those greedy bastards decided to charge $1 a month for that service, and I need that money for beer!

No worries though. Johan and Foz have added as shitload of movies, and probably burned themselves out by now. While they're catching their breath, I'll be trying to make a new import feature. It wont be as direct, since it'll have to go through more channels, such as through an API before it can scre... Continue »

Up until last week I use to have all my DVDs in cardboard boxes, hidden away, out of sight, out of mind. I started to feel guilty about spending so much money and time over the years, constructing a decent collection - only to conceal it. So, I decided to get organized and went and bought a pretty big shelving unit from a well-known furniture retailer and filled it with all my DVDs. I had no idea that I had so many DVDs, well I did know that I had alot - but not this many. I had never had them a... Continue »

Why haven't we tried this before? Oh, that's right... because it's really hard to define what is "scary" and what is "creepy" and what is "horror" in general... So for the sake of this post, scary and/or creepy counts. Whatever scares you is good enough.

We have plenty of users who have seen a wide variety of horror films, so we can sift through the cliche films that lightweights would list and get some more solid results.

If you rewatch a scary movie so many times, you get used to it. At... Continue »

I own a lot of movies in quite a few different cases. Most are simple, your standard keep cases. Others are different and not used often, but they're clever. And then some are different and not used often, because they suck. Whoever designed them must have been out of their mind to think anyone would enjoy storing movies in them. I have three to present from my own collection. They're sets, which partially explains the nutty cases. Continue »

The Prophecy (1995) has been on cable lately, so I have watched most of it over the course of this week, in bits and pieces. I mostly like the movie, but it has got me thinking about Christopher Walken.

When did he become the icon he has been for so long?? Does anyone know, or remember, when he started getting really popular? At some point he sort of became a caricature of himself... I am not even saying that that's a bad thing, I always like seeing him in everything I've seen him in.... Continue »

Holy shit! If I suddenly kill myself, this is why! Chris Cornell was one of my absolute favorite artists out there. Soundgarden, Audioslave, Temple of the Dog, and even a good solo career. Hell, I even liked his R&B album, but "Euphoria Morning" has got to be in my top-10 albums of all time.

What horrible news to wake up to.

"Wave Goodbye"

Big news! Netflix has announced they will be adding a new series titled The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. It is a prequel to the original 1982 movie The Dark Crystal. I love The Dark Crystal, and I am very excited for this! Here's the trailer.

I figured there isn't enough giant ant movies out there, so I thought i'd share this trailer.

Yes it's based on a video game.

...of Southern Comfort, Sin City, etc. fame...



RIP.

Selling DVD's is a waste of time. All the listing and fees and mailing for a dollar or two profit.

Their is a place near me called Grindhouse Video and this guy take store credit for DVD's, I am thinking about purging a shitload of my "watched it once" horror movies for some box set.

Anyone else ever wonder what do with our "watched once" dvd's?

the actual movie?

Personally not only i avoid watching movie trailers, because it's always a risk if they are going to reveal too much to the point of ruining the movie, but sometimes i will even avoid reading the synopsis so that i will dive in completely blind.

The newest episode was the shit. So many great scenes.
