Late night with the Devil.

70’s late night television broadcast goes wrong. Think Ghostwatch but in American chat show format.

9 levitating teenagers out of 10. Great fun. Surprised how good it was.

mono-stereo just watched this. Excellent stuff - it’s not scary, mostly weird and some brilliant acting. Loved it 8.5/10

Want to watch this but also know I will piss my pants. Still not fully recovered from Ghostwatch.

I watched KONG - SKULL ISLAND last night with the kids - ace fun. 7 skullcrushers/10

Dust for Blood (2023)

Moody, dark Fargo clone with Scoot McNairy and Kit Harrington.

I actually liked this and would give it the CJ RECOMMENDS stamp of approval.

7.5/10

You’ll Never Find Me. A girl knocks on the door of a lonely older man in a trailer park in the middle of a storm. Something is a bit off with both of them. 2 hander all set in the trailer. I thought it was fantastic. Brilliant use of sound and light especially in the final 3rd. On Shudder.

Took @gcw advice and watched Robodoc. Absolutely superb- loved the scene by scene commentary but also the history of the cast and crew and the amount of effort it took to do anything in those days. Nancy Allen comes across as lovely, Weller less so, Verhoeven deranged 😂

gcw

Wasily it’s quality isn’t it? I get what you mean about Weller, but at the same time he looks like the kind of guy you’d have a right laugh with over a pint.

Some of the people they wheeled out….actors that were in it for about 30 seconds. They really covered all available bases

The Abyss (1989). The ending is really quite silly, but everything before that is some amazing movie making by James Cameron, even if he nearly killed Ed Harris filming it.

TitianWarrior

Homegrove I presume you watched the extended version?

Homegrove

TitianWarrior yep. Wife’s review: I forgot this was so stupid. She didn’t complain during the movie though, so she’s got manners.

rhouses

Of course India’s Amazon Prime doesn’t have Robodoc. Garbage behaviour. Still waiting for Saltburn also.

Dream Scenario: A pleasant discovery that we took a punt on mostly because it’s A24. Went in completely blind, didn’t even bother with synopsis, so don’t want to talk about the premise.

Did not disappoint. Hilarious, weird, dark, and this isn’t quick pay cheque Nic Cage. He’s bringing his A game. It’s like a Charlie Kaufman movie with lots of Alexander Payne sprinkled on top. Loved it. Might even watch again, feels like there’s lots more to it than meets the eye. Is there a review for this in this thread?

8.3 / 10

Fall Guy……

Where do I start? Frantic love/action movie with a simplistic plot and amazing stunts (obviously).

6/10 Kiss and Tells

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004). My first time watching. I don’t wonder why this movie is so beloved by so many people. Loved it.

Along_the_Wire

303abuser watched natural born killers and motherless brooklyn yesterday, both were good.

Saw Motherless Brooklyn eventually, what a brilliant film - star turns everywhere, and a very successful attempt at neo-noir. 9/10

303abuser

Along_the_Wire I don’t even remember much, beyond liking it at this point. I’ll have to rewatch it.

Mad_Cyril

Reptile - Bang average murder mystery with a (telegraphed) ‘twist’

4 / 10 - would rather listen to a 2hr organic house set

Dan

Just ordered The Hateful 8 on Blu-ray for my father as he hasn’t seen it.

I hope I’m not turning into, H.

Homegrove

Dan welcome to the darkside.
