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.

Kirk's prime directive is his hammer. And by his hammer, he means...

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Is it cock? I'm going to guess cock. Kirk and his Hammer Cock. Now that's a children's title just begging to be written.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I thought that was what "prime directive" meant.

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

No, the "prime directive" says that Kirk can't boink an alien female unless she has an even prime number of boobs.

That's so limiting!

Why wasn't I invited to this party?!

Damn, that's my idea of a Halloween party. Though who thought it was a good idea to score an 80s horror movie party to Lou Christie's "Lightning Strikes"? It's kind of awesome since it's such a bizarre song but I can't imagine anybody but Tarantino doing it now.

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

I can't see youtube from here--where's the party?

It's an Australian horror movie from 1981 called Dead Kids (aka, Strange Behavior) and everybody's in a mid-sixties pop culture costume. So I Dream of Jeannie and Batman, and they're dancing to a weird sixties pop hit. The choreography is both awesome and cheesy and then everybody gets stabinated.

I saw that back in the day at an all-night horror movie festival. Fun movie, in a VERY gory sort of way. Also, a couple of scenes really combine eye and needle issues in an unpleasant way.

The same guy made the also intriguing Strange Invaders, and then seems to have disappeared (one more movie per the IMDB). He also produced Two-Lane Blacktop! Whoa!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Any Bay Area-istas want to see a free screening of Invictus in San Francisco tonight at 7? You'd have to get to the theatre at least an hour early.
