TODAY I WATCHED (TV-series, Movies, Cinema Playlists) 2013

The World's End - highly enjoyable third film from the guys that did Sean of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. I heard it got some mixed reviews and the guys in work said it was just ok. I dunno. I liked it allot.

I thought it was great and the best of the 3 films overall.

TNA Impact

The Big Bang Theory


The Millers

Humanoids from the Deep (1980)


Scientists messin' with the DNA of salmon accidentally produce a horde of horny mutant fish-men who invade a Pacific Northwest fishing village and start matin' with the wimmen folk (!!) in this classic drive-in sickie from Roger Corman's New World Pictures. This dirty-minded update of Creature From the Black Lagoon was notorious in its day for its graphic gore and rampant misogyny.

Fun facts: Humanoids was directed by a woman (!), but according to the DVD bonus features, the more rape-tastic scenes were supposedly shot after the fact by an assistant director and spliced into the film without her knowledge at the request of Corman himself, who thought the original cut didn't have enough sex in it. When the horrified lady director saw the final product she unsuccessfully sued to take her name off the picture, and one of the female cast members took to the talk-show circuit to denounce the film.

...this, of course, is why we love Roger Corman. Way to stay classy, Roger!!

I thought that it was okay, probably the best of the three but I wasn't blown away by any of them.

it's one of those movies I always heard about when I was a kid but never actually got a chance to see. It was a total hoot. So friggin tasteless.

The legendary Vic Morrow was rockin' a bad ass white man Afro and porn 'stache combo too.

Finished Saw V. Some of the overall story arc starts falling apart with this one IMO. Like what was the point of the wax-covered tape Jigsaw swallowed before he died. Yeah, it was eventually found but what was the purpose?

And this is the first one that didn't really finish with any kind of twist. It does contain the worst (best) trap of the series IMO though.

The ending. My God. The ending to this movie gave me insomnia as a kid. The whole movie was actually a cut above, including James Horner's score. But that ending...Jesus.

I actually laughed my ass off @ the ending... could it be a more blatant Alien ripoff?

Oh it is. Of course, every Corman sci-fi/horror is, but that scene is straight-up plagiarism. But still...it haunts me. I dunno why. 5:44:

Anyone see the Humanoids From the Deep remake that was made back in the 90s?  I think it was for Showtime.

American Mary (2013)



Entertaining, disturbing little sickie about a terminally-broke female medical student (Katherine Isabelle of 'Ginger Snaps') who finds a unique way to make ends meet: doing underground surgeries for people in the 'body modification' community. Naturally, the deeper she goes into that world, the weirder things get. Think Dee Snider's Strangeland without the Internet angle, and a hot chick in place of Dee Snider, and you're in the ballpark. Decent gore and lots of eye candy.

It is unclear why the film is called American Mary since this film was apparently an all-Canadian production. Maybe 'Canadian Mary' didn't have the right ring to it.

What happened to "Twisted Christmas"?

It was the wife's turn to pick from Netflix. I lobbied for "Saint Nick" but she wasn't interested...

Besides, I don't have enough Christmas related horror movies to last me the whole season so I have to watch other stuff in between to spread 'em out.

Yes, and it killed me as a kid. Wonder if it would hold up now...

Extinction (2011) A German "zombie" film (think more like 28 Days Later) about a group of naturally immune suvivors trying to make their way in the post-apocalyptic world. A lot better than expected but pretty much run of the mill with a few head scratching moments.

I went to see Homefront this afternoon.
