Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned  

A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Tim stays up for 48 hours playing Resident Evil on speed and then becomes convinced that everyone at a performance art exhibit is a zombie.

Yes! That's the ep that was described in the press notes.

I really must get around to buying a multi-region DVD player.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, I saw Freddy vs. Jason. And it sucked. But this...damnit, this, I might have to see:

Sources said the studio is in negotiations with director-producer Sam Raimi (the "Spider-Man" movies) for a project titled "Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash." In the proposed sequel, Freddy (from the "A Nightmare on Elm Street" films) and Jason (from the "Friday the 13th" pics) would go up against Ash, the cynical anti-hero survivor of Raimi's "Evil Dead" trilogy, which also includes "Army of Darkness."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Throw a few aliens and predators in there....

And Spike.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Cinematic Supervillain Showdown.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

OK - all you movie-geniuses - I need to find the name of an old movie. I want to say it came out in the late 70's, early 80's. It was a horror-satire. The main thing I remember is that it kept an on-screen body count. I know, not much to go on, but hopefully it will ring a bell for someone.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I was having fun last night listening to my new Amazon delivery--the re-recording of the soundtrack from To Kill a Mockingbird, done by the Royal Scottish Orchestra and directed by Elmer Bernstein.

Glorious.

Oh, and while I was listening, I was reading the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, the Fall Movie Preview issue. Damn, Jamie Foxx looks just like the young Ray Charles! I am really looking forward to seeing that movie.

lexine, that oddly sounds like Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth, which coincidentally starred Buffy's Julie Benz and Danny Strong. But that was released in 2000.

Did the movie you're looking for have a plot point about lawnmower-themed murders?

Nope - this pre-dates all those movies. I have tried searching for it, but am not coming up with specific enough information.
