Babygirl. Half naked Nicole Kidman in a movie that’s a third Secretary. A third Fatal Attraction and a third Unfaithful. A hint of boob.
Day of the Dead. (1985). Had never seen it in full except for bits and pieces. Lots of zombies eating people and the effects are kinda good. No boobs.

An article this morning caught my eye, for some reason, about an indie horror flick starring a dog. I think it was called Good Boy. Seems to be receiving some praise.
I was a little intrigued but have a hard time committing to movies these days. I'm waiting on the @haie review first. Seriously, I am.
-
Sorry chuck. That one is a pass for me.

Had nothing to watch last night and noticed the new Superman movie was on HBO figured give it a shot and if nothing else I'm a big Rachel Brosnahan fan. Within the first scene I stopped watching it. Felt like I was watching a cartoon I would watch when I was 6 before I grew out of it. Gave it another shot and made it about 10 minutes before giving up again. Is this really what people watch?

I think Mrs. Maisel was brought in to try and keep James Gunn from not blowing 200+ million on a woke shitty comic book movie and then publicly embarrassing himself and the studio even more after it takes a shit on opening weekend, and you see the result. There was a lot of angst over that movie when it came out this summer, I just kind of forgot most of it. He had some completely stupid quote that started turning people away from it, iirc.
I think these movies do better internationally but domestically it's like…why? Rebooting the same shit over and over?
-
I saw something on Twatter the other day where the poster asked why doesn’t Hollywood go back to find poorly made movies that were based on good stories and remake those instead of remaking/rebooting the things that were good and making us hate them.
-
I did see this last year and it was surprisingly decent. Better than See No Evil which is kind of similar. Maybe
-
The best example that comes to mind is 28 Years Later. 28 Weeks Later was a big letdown/generic zombie film that lacked the visionary that wrote the first movie. Didn't even have the grainy filter and just lacked imagination.
When Garland came back he mostly just reimagined the aftermath of the first movie, even making stuff from the 2nd film non canon. Doesn't even feel like a 3rd movie.
-
I've heard the thing about why not make stuff that was made poorly the first time better before and don't remember ever seeing a good answer why they don't. My guess is everyone in that industry is so terrified of failure because it can end everything for them that they are spooked of anything that wasn't successful, and they likely have to then go back and pay the original people who own the source material. I guess Dune is an example of doing this.
I guess I should have been more prepared but how cartoonish and child like the Superman movie was just through me off. The only comic book movies I've ever really been able to stomach are Batman ones.

Play Dirty a Prime movie with Mark Wahlberg
Formula robbery thriller. Best part is a cameo by Mark Cuban that ends with Wahlberg shooting him
-
I watched the new Naked Gun. Had quite a few laughs even though the world will little note nor long remember the film. Pam Anderson is sneaky hot.
They played to the original - this Drebin is the son of the original Drebin. There is a funny scene where they address the OJ thing with his son
Its the lack of OJ that makes this film a distant second to the original which I watched a month ago or so and its still funny
-
Yeah we saw it and I was disappointed. The last time I really laughed at a new/recent comedy was just the parts in Super Troopers II that was murdering Canadian accents and culture
-
I'm so out of touch about the film industry that I dont know who the mainstream actors and directors are. I never hear the latest film titles except here in this thread.
Horror seems to be your wheelhouse, so I was curious whether that extends into weird looking indie flicks like I mentioned.
Odds of me watching it were never better than winning powerball with a $2 ticket.
-
I had been watching a couple of movies every week, but have not recently. I watched the new Dexter and it was good. I enjoyed it.
I also watched Black Rabbit with Jason Bateman and Jude Law which was great. I saw it didn’t get great reviews, which is crazy to me. It was incredible.
-
Keeper November 14th I'm looking forward to because of Osgood Perkins. The initial trailer this summer looked great.
I saw that Bring Her Back is on Max now. It got quite a bit of praise but I don't actually enjoy the stuff like Talk To Me. Will check it out though.
Yes @chuck I like some movies like Lamb which I would consider more weird than horror and something that anyone can watch.
-
Watched the first episode of Black Rabbit last night, and will continue.
Watched about the first ~40% of Bring Her Back and I'm pleasantly surprised at at lease some of the movie so far. Doesn't suck like Talk To Me. Pretty by the book A24 slow burn horror so far. I don't like that it reveals a bit too much early on.
-
Megan 2.0 Saw the first one a while back, so figured to finish it out and watch this one.
Interview with a Vampire. Watched the last 3/4s of it Hadn't seen it in 31 years and totally forgot what it was about or who some of the supporting actors who were in it.
-
Shame (2011) Stumbled across this just last night. Michael Fassbender as a sex addict who has tons of sex with super hot chicks. but then his sister comes to town and jacks things up for him, so there is obviously some trauma growing up between the two. lots of boobs. Kind of slow.
-
Suspiria (2018) A decent modern remake of the 1977 film. a bit creepier with modern technology versus 1977. Some boobs, nothing to post about.
-
Friday the 13th. (1980) To me, still holds up pretty well for a slasher flick. This and Halloween films really blew the roof off things when a zillion copy cat movies came out.
-
Double feature night!
Evil Dead (2013) It was alright. The gore/effects were good. Ash was gender swapped with a female.
The Woman (2011) Never heard of this but popped up on Amazon video. This was the second movie of a trilogy I have never heard of. The first film is called Offspring, about a feral group of humans. The Woman is the second film where a man catches the last feral woman and tries to domesticate her. Of course, things go sideways and there are some weird things at the end that I didn't see coming. The 3rd film is called "Darlin". the actress who played the woman was once married to Grant Show and is now married to Bobcat Goldthwaite.

I Like Me, the John Candy documentary on Prime. Very well done for what seems like the most likable guy ever.
-
"The only reason you're here is to keep my shit-bomb fucking son from self-detonating!" via sign language was great. Decent show. I would have made it into a movie instead.
-
"I like Me" - Documentary about John Candy. Excellent. Laughs, tears, nostalgia. Free pub for Cuog.
"My Father, the BTK Killer" - Documentary on Netflix. Not bad. A bit too focused on the daughter. That said a concise look into the the guys life. Pretty certain he wanted to be caught.
-
Thank you. I was wondering if I should watch BTK and it's definitely something I would pass on now.
Yogurt Shop Murders documentary has made me really wary of true crime shit lately.
-
The worst current true crime show on ID is Techbro Murders
They just want B roll of Musk and Zuckerberg while whining about billionaires
The murders are just common poor folks killing each other
No Buck either
-
Yeah I passed on that as it smelled like a few sociopaths but nothing really super interesting.
Anyone remember the HBO documentary where it was the filmmaker's mom that was murdered that lived on a golf course? And the dad was going to owe her a bunch of money that day but then she was also part of this women's group and fucked them over previously for a bunch of money (or some similar setup)?
That show was very interesting and I can't believe they haven't made a second season or revealed what the local cops finally had to expose for him.
-
was that like Murder on Brown Beach or something? That was really good. I think the son was making it as a super low budget indie doc and HBO saw how crazy the story was and stepped in. I can’t even remember how it played out
-
Murder on Middle Beach. Yeah the issue is that the cops are claiming that the investigation is still ongoing and therefore won't release any information to him, but he doesn't think they're doing much at this point so he's been taking them to court.
A $50,000 reward probably would have gotten one of the gals in that pyramid scheme group to snitch someone if they were in fact the killer. I also thought that one of the suspects of that group was already dead?
I don't think it was the dad putting a hit out.
