Please spare us Four Rooms and Sleep with Me, however.

BTW, T-900, if you like True Romance so much you might -- assuming you haven't seen it already -- check out Killing Zoe. It's similar to TR in some ways (e.g. hooker w/a heart of gold), but at least Hammer will get to see an ass-raping. (A French one, too... :o )

By 'All Quentin Tarantino films' I meant Desperado/Dusk till Dawn/Pulp Fiction etc 8)

Lucky Hammer. Y'know he messages me on ICQ atleast 3 times a week to say 'I'M GOING TO ASSRAPE YOU!'. Interesting psychology at work there.

Review "Mulholland Drive" and "Lost Highway" please...

If you don't review "Alien", rate it at least.

Anyways, keep up the good work...

Errr, as far as I know Desperado was written and directed by Robert Rodriguez, not mr Tarantino. And 51state was uber-crap in my opinion. It shows nothing innovating, technically or scriptwise. Actor performances were below mediocre, close to plain bad and the storyline doesn' t make sense at all.

Nah, better watch the Boondock Saints or Snatch for that matter. At least they contribute something to the ART of cinema.

I'd have to watch them all again. It's been awhile. The last movie he made was Jackie brown two or three years ago, and it wasn't that good. Then he disappeared. Maybe I'll do that right after Kill Bill comes out.

T-900 you buffoon, the only movies Tarantino has the directors credit for are Resevoir Dogs (1992), Pulp Fiction (1994), and Jackie Brown (1997). His new movie, Kill Bill, comes out later this year.

Yossarian: o/ David Lynch is tres cool.

The Beyond

This is an old school horror movie directed by the master himself, Lucio Fulci. It starts out in 1929, where an angry mob crucifies a warlock to a wall below the hotel he owns. Then they throw some kind of acid on him and he dies. Across the street, some wierdo is reading a book called Eichon and her eyes turn yellow and cloudy.

Fast forward to present day (well, 1982) and some realitors buy the hotel and start to clean it up to put it back on the market. Some strange happenings go on: the window cleaner falls off a scaffold and dies, the plumber has his eyes ripped out by the zombie of the warlock, and so on. But the owners don't leave, of course. And they start getting visits by the yellow eyed girl, who may or may not be dead.

Standard Fulci movie. Lots of deaths, lots of creepy atmosphere, great gore effects. The story is a bit hazy and the downtime between killings can get kind of tiresome. The ending was good, though. It had great visual effects. All of the special effects are masterfully done for a movie made in that time.

The highlight of the movie, however, is the DVD bonus music video, "And You Will Live in Terror" by the death metal band Necrophagia. It's home video of one of their shows, with all of the death scenes in the movie spliced in. Awesome. Watch the movie first though.

Basically, definite must see for Fulci fans. One of his best movies I've seen. Otherwise, not for non-horror fans.

i saw the ring 2 weeks ago,it was 1 pm and i was all alone

man that movie scared the crap outta me

a few nights ago i had nightmare and at 3 am i though i saw a little troll,like an evil midget(maybe it was the creepy girl from the ring) i dont really remeber what it was,but it was a monster and it was short

anyways i thought i saw it sitting in my office chair that was next to my bed,so i kicked the chair really hard,and said something like ill get yer midget ass!
it didnt exactly go flying through the room,its a big heavy chair with wheels,but it rolled across the room and hit the wall, that woke me up good...

i actually felt kinda tough for attacking instead of just yellin like a woman,like i wanted to, but man i was scared shitless


next morning i sat in the chair and it looked fine,i leaned back and something fell from under it,i looked and it was like a plastic thingie with a big metal spring in it!

i killed my chair in sleep!

im never watching a horror movie again


PS.HERE ARE MY REVIEWS:
reservoir dogs=great
pulp fiction=great
dusk to dawn=shit
jackie brown=bad
desperado=average
true romance=good

lost highway=great

51st state=dogshit(not dogs bollocks)

memento=great

why limit this thread to horror movies only?



28 days later was probably the closest thing to a horror movie i've seen in a while, because most of hte previews for horror movies make me laugh, not afraid.

Well, that doesn' t surprises me. Most horrors are meant to make you laugh. If you want to sit on the edge of your chair, then watch a thriller.

The ring is a great example of a thriller (scared even me in broad daylight) whereas Evil Dead is pure horror. And things like Jeepers Creepers don' t fit in either of these categories. More like in the bin with pure commercial entertainement togheter with Scream and IKWYDLSummer.

Tip of the day: watch Peter Jacksons' earlier work: Meet the Feebles, Braindead and Bad Taste. Great stuff!

What's the best/your favorite Zombie movie? I still like "Night of the Living Dead" but I'm curious on other peoples opinions. Plus, I need to see another good zombie movie, even if its re-renting "Night of the Living Dead".

The original Night of the Living dead. Nothing's come close to that one. It's a classic. I'd rate it 666 for sure.

The whole Romero zombie trilogy is good. (Day of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead). The color remake of the original was kind of weak, though, in my opinion.

The Return of the Living Dead movies are good for a laugh.

Honest? I' ll go check it out later on this week then. That is if I can get my hands on it around here, which I doubt actually.

For peeps who like having the creeps my personnal top 5 in movies from Hell:

1) Damien
2) Children of the Damned (original version)
3) Exorcist
4) Night of the Living Dead
5) Evil Dead 2

I saw most of them when I was still a kid and frankly, they still scare the shit out of me. Well except Evil Dead then.

Jawz II, I know what you mean, the wee folk are getting back at us for all the years we used them in circuses to entertain those taller than them...

As for movies, review...Donnie Darko...American Mcgee's Alice...that's it.

Movies that quetin tarantino was INVOLVED in. He wrote true romance, did various junk for all the others, and did camio's in which he continually gets shot. Good enough for me.

And 51st state was funny as hell if you know the mental state of the average 20-35 year old english football fan.

Tarantino makes a good corpse, no? It seems he eventually ends up playing on in all his movies. $5 says he dies in Kill Bill. Speaking of which, isn't that sposed to be like a trilogy?

No, it's just going to be two volumes. I guess they thought the original movie was too long.

He didn't die in Pulp Fiction, btw. And I don't even think he was in Jackie Brown, though it's been a long time since I watched it, and I could be wrong.
