Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!

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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I saw The Cameraman’s Revenge, which you embedded in your post. A very clever film! I only hope the filmmakers were wise enough not to try to repeat their success in dead-insect animation.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Honestly not sure if this belongs here or in Infinite Chrises, but I finally saw Knives Out and the sweater! I was so distracted by how big Chris Evans arms are. Too big for the character/sweater.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

In the words of our founding namesake, those are good arms to have.

Just popping in to say that I'm still working on the 1920s mostly, but the MG's movie night last night was scheduled to watch Sorcerer so naturally I insisted we had to watch The Wages of Fear beforehand since I hadn't yet seen that either and, damn, if those aren't two fantastic films. Different movies in similar shells. Sorcerer was probably less tense than it would have been if I hadn't watched them back to back, but I still preferred it slightly. In fact, I don't get how this flopped at the box office at all.

In any case, I've been meaning to see them for ages, but now that I have I can't believe I waited so long. If that's you, don't be me!

I still haven't seen them! And I love Clouzot's Diabolique and I have the DVD of his unfinished L'Enfer.

Don't be me, Hec! What am I here for if not for you to learn from my mistakes?

I have yet to see a Clouzot film I haven't liked. If you haven't seen it, L'Assassin habite au 21 (The Murderer Lives at Number 21) is another fave. It's a lighter take on his Quai des Orfèvres or Le Corbeau mystery style.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Universal to make a Munsters movie with Rob Zombie as director.

My level of DO NOT WANT is pretty high, but I've never liked any of Zombie's movies.

I don't think I've seen any of his movies. Because they don't sound like something I'd like. But maybe he'll change things up for this?

Not holding out a lot of hope for it, but you never know

There was that great Munsters pilot, Mockingbird Lane (2012) by Bryan Fuller with Eddie Izzard that I wish dearly had gotten picked up: [link]
