'Origin'
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.

After the preview to Amityville ended, I turned to my sister and said, "So the moral of all movies ever is, never buy a house."
Except for the one movie (House of Sand and Fog, maybe?), whose moral is CHECK YOUR FUCKING MAIL!

Ah, but she inherited that house. Ben Kingsley bought it from her, and look how things turned out for him.
That sequence is out of sequence with the rest of the movie.
Which had me wondering was he not guarding the place at that point? I would have figured he'd take out Bruce Willis if he was. Or is this when he was still trying to reform (Rutger said something about him trying to not be like he was or something, I swear), and hadn't graduated to cannabalism yet?
Frank, my wank for that was that he knew that Bruce Willis was there after the yellow guy, who he didn't like, either, so he didn't much mind if he got killed.

Yes, but had she opened her fucking mail, she would have sen it was going to be auctioned, therefore saving lives.
I hate that movie.

I figured that went without saying.
And I stand by my Buying Houses In Movies Almost Always A Very Very Bad Idea argument.

A-effing-men. Also? Stay away from unlabeld VHS tapes.

See Also: The Money Pit, Ummm.... other movies where people buy homes and Bad Stuff happens. (Can't really remember others right now, but I know there's lots of them)
Ok, scary(ish) movie title needed. I think it's something like Gate oto Hell or something with Gate. Anyway, basically, a hellmouth opens up in thsi backyard and these teeny little evil demon guys, that you're totally supposed to be afraid but aren't cause-so cute, come running out and terrorize kids.
Darby O'Gill and the Little People?
Okay, that was a joke.
