Angelus ,'Smile Time'
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.
Time After Time is a terrific movie but don't forget ...If and O Lucky Man and to a lesser extent Brittania Hospital (which was the third in the loose trilogy by Lyndsay Anderson) when talking about Malcolm McDowell goodness.
All that talk about movies that give reasons for not buying a house and no-one mentioned House ?
There was also a small Aussie movie called Emoh Rou which might qualify but I've never had a chance to see it so can't really say for sure.
What about The People Under The Stairs?
Or Funny Farm?
What was that great movie with John Laroquette and Kirstie Alley? Madhouse I think it was.
KILLED TOO SOON! (As was my wonderful and very beloved Cupid, with Jeremy Piven)
t keening, wailing, rending of cloth
THIS. One of the greatest tragedies of teevee. IJS.
Woot!
You misspelled that, Connie. It should be W00t!
Polterigiest is don't buy a house built on an Indian burial ground.
Saw this last night, for the first time in years. It wasn't an Indian burial ground so much as just a normal burial ground but, basically, yeah.
Also, I thought the movie primarily sucked. Stephen Spielberg writes way too many speeches in his movies, and makes far too much use of manipulative music. Sometimes that works okay, like in E.T., but in a horror movie? It's a distraction.
That said, the last 20 minutes were completely awesome. It was like we had a 2 hour buildup for 20 minutes of actual scary movie.
Madchen Amick was also in the horribly underrated and very frustratingly short-lived new Fantasy Island series, with Malcom MacDowell.
I thought I was the only person alive who had ever even watched that show. And I always thought that Shelly and Bobby on Twin Peaks were the cutest couple.
Sin City in the Galaxy of Fame. Merciful Zeus, I love FameTracker.
Ha!
"Hi, I'm Jessica Alba. After Honey tanked, I went to my agent and said, 'How about a totally different direction? I'd like to produce and star in a biography of famed suffragette Carrie Nation -- she's a real-life superhero. I feel I could bring both passion and nuance to the role. And my agent said, 'That sounds good. Why don't we give the naked belly-dancing thing one more try, though?' Well, looks like she was right. Thanks, agent!"
