The Bat

Battle Force... I do not recommend you watch it, unless you wish to be bored out of your mind.

 

[Miss Golightly]

The Awakening - Pretty standard ghost story with a few frights along the way.....

 

[Lord Brett]

The Professionals (on DVD), one of the last really great Hollywood westerns, made in 1966, starring Burt Lancaster and Lee Marvin. Not one that the critics rave about, but really solid, beautifully shot entertainment with great dialogue.

Evil Dead 2

Evil Dead 2

Groovy.

Evil Dead 2

They've been playing the series on Encore lately. Entertaining series for sure.

 

[Widebrim]

The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946)

Noteworthy adaptation, especially considering that it's a MGM sanitized version of the book. But have you seen the 1942 Italian version, Ossessione? Now that one pulls few punches...

Evil Dead 2

Ash: [to his freshly sawn off possessed hand] "Here's your new home."
[Ash places a bucket and a bunch of books on it to trap the hand, the top book reads "A farewell to arms"]

I wasn't aware there was an Italian version but as a fan of good foreign cinema I'll put it on my "To See" list - thanks for the heads up!

Especially the version I saw. After the movie, went to Evil Dead the Musical......and got covered, literally, by gallons of theatrical blood from the various chainsaw/hatchet/knife scenes in the "splatter zone"

 

[Chasseur]

Trouble in Paradise, wonderful film with great dialogue and sets, there is something about those 1930s sophisticated comedies.

 

[DesertDan]

Real Genius - One of my (few) favorite "teen" movies.

"I was just thinking about the immortal words of Socrates who said............I drank what?"

That sounds wonderful. I have been gagging to see that ever since it was first announced. Bought the soundtrack on day of UK release... I love it. It appears that they have combined the lots of the first two films (of course, the first twenty minutes of II was essentially a recap on the first, albeit that the group was cut down to just Ash and his girl), with all the best lines from the third thrown in. Wonderful. I have heard rumours it is coming to the UK, but nothing concrete yet.... My favourite numbers are Cabin in the Woods and, especially, All the men in my life keep getting killed by Candarian demons".
