I mean, I guess that psycho is just as inspired by the murders of Eddie Gein as Buffalo Bill is in Silence of the Lambs
George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead in Movies ·
The movie finally hit theaters here in the States today

I guess we should give Romero some credit 😉

Harry actually liked it—not that his opinion carries much weight, I suppose—but it feels like a solid start 😉

Anyway, I found a few clips from the film along with an interview featuring Romero

they're coming to get you barbara.... 😈
I guess I agree

sometimes those trailers actually end up being better than the movies they're supposed to be promoting

it's like 183 times better in my opinion

I have this feeling that the movie is full of these intentional narrative dead ends,

It’s almost like the script was being hammered out while the Coen brothers were dealing with some major creative blocks, so they just started throwing random stuff into the mix just to keep the momentum going, I guess.

And somehow, that resulted in this little masterpiece we have here.

redowl90 said:Yeah, I mean, maybe it's just me, but I honestly think Narnia is going to be like... way, way better than Lord of the Rings. Like, exponentially better. I don't know, just a feeling I have. 😉


I don't know, I guess it probably won't happen. Maybe.

I mean, I don't know, maybe it'll just end up being some big Hollywood rip-off of Lord of the Rings... I guess. Just a feeling I have.

I mean, that’s just how the trailers make it look, I guess.

Dennis Long7 said:Wait, what?

I mean, those specific scenes I saw... they look like they were just taken shot-for-shot from Peter Jackson’s LOTR movies.

(So, uh, I'm talking about the films here, not the books, I guess.)

Land of the Dead (especially that one 🙏), the new Batman flick, King Kong, maybe War of the Worlds

I don't know, he could probably check out Narnia... though I guess the whole thing feels a bit like a rip-off, but whatever

Sin City

A Scanner Darkly

and oh, Indiana Jones 4, which I think is scheduled for 2006, if I remember right 🙂 🙂 🙂

I don't really know

I guess I'll just ask him next time I run into him

but honestly, I haven't seen him in forever😁 😁

Jose Chase2 said:That scene where she talks to the director in that crappy little town is just gold.🙏

Yeah, that part was actually pretty solid... you know, the fog, the small town vibe, all that gothic feeling.

Jose Chase2 said:But the songs are intense, and there's a band playing between every one of the three stories—it's totally MTV.


Man, I completely forgot about this one.🤣

The intermezzo is legendary, though.

Jose Chase2 said:Sadly, you can't find the movie anywhere; I once caught it on PBS around 3 in the morning.


Yeah, that's how I saw it too.

A friend of mine recorded it when it was on PBS and was like, "You seriously have to see this!" 😁 😁

not

it’s just such an ultra low-budget thing, and honestly, I don't think it actually made much money

your best bet is probably just hoping it eventually hits DVD

otherwise, you're looking at torrenting it, I guess 😁 😁

Jose Chase2 said:I wouldn't call myself an expert on this kind of stuff, but I guess The Comedy Store is definitely one of my favorites... the movie is just honestly so good and fun to watch.👍 🙏


Oh man, I remember watching that one.

I think I vaguely recall some monster that kills people by whistling or something.🤣 🤣 🤣

ironbison5 said:Kind of a random tangent here, I guess. Has anyone actually sat down and watched The Undead? That Australian flick from 2003?

I haven't seen the whole thing, but I did catch some of the trailers

Comets, zombies... something about a weird pump machine, maybe?

It looks pretty low-budget, but I think it holds up okay visually. 🙂

here’s the official site 👍 👍

I mean, I’m not totally sold on the idea of a single zombie carrying the whole weight of the main villain role—judging by the pictures on the site, anyway—but it just doesn't feel quite right for the spirit of the trilogy, I guess

hopefully I'm just totally wrong about this😛

Emily Hernandez28 said:quietdriver3, chatting with you was about as pleasant as finding a dead rat behind a dresser in a nest made of used pads


man, if that chat had been a horse, I probably would've just shot it.

it kind of reminded me of marriage based on those last few posts...

just routine. 😢

i guess it might be because of your new username...

don't go taking it out on me, though. 😢

I haven't really stumbled upon a solid definition for what actually makes a movie "trash" yet

Michael Carter6 said:Since I'm a huge fan of King's work and his movies, and also a big fan of Morgan Freeman, plus I love Band of Brothers (especially since the main guy in "Brothers " = Jonesy" is in it), I'd say it gets a 7.5/10 from me.


I wouldn't call this a full review, I guess. You have a pretty solid start, but the middle part feels a bit watered down, and toward the end, you used way too many symbols and numbers just to make sure people could follow you.

I'd give it a 6/10.

These animated movies are just directed so well, they're such a blast to watch🙂

I really hope the movie doesn't totally tank

After all the absolute garbage we've been fed in the horror genre lately, it feels like something actually decent is finally on the way

I mean, for true horror junkies, this sequel is basically what that new Star Wars trilogy was for the hardcore fans

(and since I'm a fan of both, I guess it's gonna be 🙏 one hell of a year for cinema)

I really can't wait 👍

A beautiful song....?????????

What a terrible way to describe quality, I guess.😢
