YYZumbi Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Yesterday before I went to sleep, I watched this movie: http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTY4NzcwODg3Nl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNTEwOTMyMw@@._V1_SX214_AL_.jpg http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338013/?ref_=nv_sr_1 It was kinda weird, but it was good. A kinda different Carrey-movie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 http://i.imgur.com/kFQ5XEr.jpg http://i.imgur.com/xScvrNT.jpgSydney Poitier is a cool mofo. He can beat half a dozen bozos with a stick and STILL keep his suit in perfectly pressed condition. He's like Denzel Washington's classy uncle who Denzel always idolized. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT I do remember it being really good, and one of the VERY few good vampire flicks. I should check that out again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah it looks of it's era, very 70's, but I think that's where it belongs and it suits the material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyBlaze Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) Sunshine. Directed by Danny Boyle, starring Cilian Murphy & Chris Evans among other good cast members. Started out interesting enough (though with a standard plot of saving humanity from our dying sun), well-executed set/production/sci-fi tone. THEN, in the last 20-30 minutes it morphed into a quasi-horror flick for whatever reason. A bit of a disappointing ending because of the sudden detour into another genre makes this flick drop considerably. Grade: C- Edited July 15, 2015 by JohnnyBlaze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A terrible Event Horizon wannabe."C-" isn't exactly good. And if it didn't have actors I actually liked and that I think did well, it'd likely get a "D" from me. As for Event Horizon, I fell asleep about 30-40 minutes into it and woke up as the credits were rolling. But I wasn't sleepy/tired prior to walking into the cinema. That sucker would get an F.

Babycat Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 http://i.imgur.com/OiUjIrZ.jpg http://i.imgur.com/OMMnObv.jpg I had to Google the Diagnosis Murder part, thinking that Dick Van Dyke had something to do with it, even though he wasn't credited on the DVD cover, and then discovered it was released at least 15+ years before him. Point is, since I wasn't aware of this - any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point is, since I wasn't aware of this - any good?Diagnosis Murder is pretty good. It's a thriller about a guy plans to murder his wife and after drugging and kidnapping her he sends fake tip-off notes to the police to get them to investigate and look for a body that isn't there, so he can put himself in the clear. Then once searches have been made and no evidence is found he can dispose of his wife at his leisure. Christopher Lee plays the bad guy, Jon Finch plays the smarter than he looks detective. Its a bit like a British version of Columbo but not as good. There's a sub-plot concerning the cop's girlfriend who plans to get rid of her wheelchair-bound husband which helps to create a twist ending. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember it being on TV back in the day either. It's got a pretty weak plot which is similar to Theatre of Blood with an actor going mad and murdering people but this one is nowhere near as good. It's a drab film actually and it uses a lot of stock footage of old Price flicks to pad out the film and to serve as the character's career highlights. It's almost like a tribute to Vincent Price rather than a proper film. There's no Madhouse in the film either and in fact there's no particular house where the action takes place, it's a stupid title really. The only thing that makes it worth watching is Price and Peter Cushing who deliver the goods as usual. Edited July 15, 2015 by treeduck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 http://i.imgur.com/ZcObo6H.jpg This is a disappointingly dull anthology film from 1977 with a "cats are evil" theme. Despite having a great cast including Peter Cushing, Ray Milland, Donald Pleasence, John Vernon and Samantha Eggar this one is boring as hell. The framing story (Peter Cushing, Ray Milland) is the only one that's any good, the rest of it is a waste. Donald Pleasence must have thought Halloween was a godsend after this. http://i.imgur.com/53eRygC.jpg Excellent stuff! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
