I love how gleeful Viggo was delivering that last sentence.
Xander: Am I right, Giles? Giles: I'm almost certain you're not. Though, to be fair, I haven't been
listening.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
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.

That was nice and creepy, but I loved this line better (you actually feel sorry for Lucifer!):
You know what Hell really is, Thomas? It's not lakes of burning oil or chains of ice. It's being removed from God's sight. It's hard to believe... so hard.

Also, every Cthulu-ite knows that all the evil stuff happens in New England, not on the beautiful Oregon coast.
Yeah, but in horror movies these days, the Pacific Northwest is the new New England on Miskatonic.
ION, there's another shot at a really bad Lovecraft movie...and it looks like Tori Spelling getting eaten by Cthulhu will move from my idle musings to actuality.
It only has a budget of $450,000. That's going to make even a single tentacle pretty rare and expensive for the movie. We'll see what happens.

Also? The cast of the Rent movie was on Regis and Kelly this morning singing 525,600 Minutes. Te Diggs and Rosario Dawson can really sing. And the woman who R&B's out is absolutely amazing. Gave me chills when her moment to shine came up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmmm, I don't recall any gay college professors from "The Shadow over Innsmouth." But you gotta love a movie that features, as Lovecraft put it, "Earth's supreme horror."
And it has Cthulhu as well!
Funny AND birthdaying! Happy Birthday, Matt!

A tentative yay? But
Hodge, the Academy Award-nominated writer of Trainspotting, will adapt the story of Will Stanton
is wrong on a whole bunch of levels.

Hey. New board.
I never would have called that one.
Oh, wait, yes I would've. I mean, it's the obvious next step after Lion Witch and His Dark Materials. Next will be The Book of Three, is my guess. Or maybe they'll ape Disney and jump straight to The Black Cauldron, only not animated (I hope).
Kids fantasy is in style! Which, by the way, is a big "yay" for me, since it's one of my favorite genres. So I'm not complaining.
