I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Better in terms of more awesome/terrible. I assumed she was a beheaded ghost!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I gotta agree with Jesse and tommyrot. That's bad-movie nirvana.

It would almost be worth seeing with an audience just to see the reaction at the reveal.

Dave White sez:

If we could all stop for a moment and think about how excellent and uplifting garbage can be, America would rally around this movie like the treasure it is. Because this is some trash. Some really amazing, thoroughly entertaining, laugh-out-loud trash that doesn't deserve the drubbing it's preemptively getting from adoption advocacy groups. The adopted members of my own family are going to have a blast watching this because it takes all the snotty comments or snubs ever delivered to an adopted child, packages them as a few deserve-to-be-maimed schoolchildren and then has the nerve to actually punish them. It also punishes several innocent, well-meaning bystanders, too. But you can't have everything.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

That end of "Orphan" is absolutely amazing.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Isn't Peter Sarsgaard in Orphan? What happened to his career?

Indie cinema, it would seem.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Laga,

I think your first statement before the "but" is true.

I believe your statement after the "but" is not true.
