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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Okay, I just read that link, and if I'd known how that movie ended, I would have tried harder to sit through it.

The badness, it burned, though. It BURNED!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sean kind of has a point.

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

if I'd known how that movie ended, I would have tried harder to sit through it.

That's just the kind of defeatist attitude that will get you left behind with the Disco Nazis when the Rapture comes.

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

Making of King Kong to hit stores before the movie hits theatres.

I'm not sure I care enough to be the target market, but bless Peter Jackson for changing up how things are done with the behind the scenes information.

Wow. The Fog remake is getting thrashed critically. One review compared it to using tracing paper for a tampon.

Ouch. Though, I really don't understand this recent spate of "Let's remake classic horror films with actual budgets and in-your-face special effects." Part of the reason the classic horror films worked was because they didn't have the budget to do massive gore, show-everything special effects. They left stuff up to the imagination.

Oh dear....

So, I was flipping past UPN this evening, and they're showing one of my all time favorite cheese-tastic movies, Lifeforce. You know, the buck-ass nekkid space-vampire movie starring Steve Railsback.

Turns out it was produced by Golan and Globus, the producting team that brought us The Apple.

It's all connected.

Well, now I'm earwormed again.

It's a natural, natural, natural desiiiiiiire / Meet an actual, actual, actual vampiiiiiiiiire! / Let the apple set your soul on fire...fire...fire...FIIIIRRRRRE!!!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

As I recall, it was more the area right above the heart that was getting set on fire in Lifeforce.
