Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I love the Boondocks on Tyler Perry.

I know we have plenty of baseball fan buffistas so I present to you a baseball movie poll. I voted Eight Men Out.

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

Another list - this one from Wired:

25 Best Horror Films of All Time

eta: NSFW. There's little icons for each movie which get embiggened when you click on the movie - some of those are NSFW.

Because books.

Ooh, that's a list I can get behind. Rosemary's Baby, An American Werewolf in London, Angel Heart, all favorites.

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

I haven't seen all of those, but of the ones I have, Let The Right One In is the only one I wouldn't recommend.

I really should just watch Freaks. I'm overly scared of it.

Cap!

I am so psyched.

Oh, and the original Wicker Man! That was fantastic, too.

I haven't see Freaks either. Or Phantasm, mostly because I remember the commercials from childhood and they freaked me right out.

"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

Freaks is creepy as all get-out, but I don't think it's too scary for a die-hard horror fan. Hell, there were episodes of Carnivàle that were more traumatizing.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

It's a disability-rights-movement touchstone, ita.(Not sure if that is a rec or a diss, but, you know.)

  • Every* crip at the protest knows about "Freaks"

Oops. Thanks for catching that.
