She's never been one of my favorites as far as hotness goes. What did you think of Savage Streets? Honestly, I really like '80s vigilante films but found that one to be rather under par. It had its moments, but it just didn't satisfy my appetite for violent carnage. I must admit that the principal was a trip, telling the bullies to "go f*** an iceberg" and "take your f****t a**es out of the school".

Linda was never high on my list either, but when I saw "Hell Night" I kept thinking to myself "Damn, she was pretty hot back then."

Not sure if I've ever seen "Savage Streets"... I think I'd definitely remember someone being told to "go f*** an iceberg."

Found this in the Shop-Rite bargain bin for five bucks on my way home tonite:



I heard it was kinda lame but I figured what the hell, I was a long time Jason Junkie during my teen years thus my curiosity got the better of me.

Machete
Dr.Doolittle

Eastbound and Down Season 2 Blu ray
Mst3k XXI: Mst3k vs. Gamera box set

Well, I finally got the nerve to do it.

Last night I bought "A Serbian Film". Somebody mentioned ths film on this board months ago and when I researched it I was like "No F'n way I'm ever watching that". But last night I rewatched the trailer on the interwebs and decided that even though a lot of the events depicted in the film are utterly vile, almost unanimously, critics say the film is very well made. And since I consider myself a fan of extreme cinema and everyone says this is a "must see", I decided to take the plunge.

Supposedly this makes Hostel or Saw look like a Care Bears movie and if you read the Wikipedia writeup, that's an understatement.

Did it come with a free Vomit Bag?

Good luck, man. Over the past year or so I've read enough about that movie to determine that I don't even want to be in the same room with a copy of the DVD, much less watch it. I guess I'm just a wimp.

Nope, you're just normal.

How many episodes did that last? Talk about a blast from the past. I remember the Coca-Cola commercials.

Movie stop was having their annual 50-75 % off sale on used movies, so I picked up:

Opera, Wet Hot American Summer and The Last Horror Movie

They had a bunch of Argento flicks but I only had 10 bucks to spare.

14 I think. I remember really digging some of the ideas in the series plus it has Amanda Pays...

Awesome movie!

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension Special Edition

Not a movie. But I did pick up the 2nd season of Eastbound & Down.

Some cheap DVDs (only 98p each actually):
Conspiracy
The Contractor
The Glimmer Man
Ground Control
Shadow Man

September's already half over which means it's time for me to start combing the bargain DVD bins for my annual Halloween season "Schlock-Tober Craptacular" viewings!!

Picked these up @ Shop-Rite today for $4.99 and $3.99, respectively:


Looks like Miramax/Dimension Films has entered into a deal with the budget DVD label Echo Bridge to distribute their back catalog. The "From Dusk Til Dawn" DVD I picked up a few months ago was also on this label. When I picked this up today I noticed they also had a couple of the "Prophecy" flicks, "Hellraiser III," and a few others I may go back for at a later date.



This is actually my second copy of "Man-Thing." I bought a previously viewed rental copy a couple of years ago when Shop-Rite was closing down their video rental dept. Unfortunately when I got it home, the damn thing skipped like a mothertrucker so I had to toss it. What little I saw of the film looked pretty cool though.

Star Wars Blu-Ray set

A few days ago I picked up season 4 of The Big Bang Theory (THE best sitcom of the 2000's IMO-not a bad episode yet)

I need to buy all the seasons soon too. I think I've seen all the episodes, but they've they'ven been aired here has been so inconsistent, I'm not entirely sure.

I've been making quite a few additions to my VHS collection lately. Here's all of the video tapes I've bought since the beginning of the month:

American Ninja (found it at a Goodwill near my house yesterday for a dollar)
The Expert
The Perfect Weapon
Self-Defense (aka Siege)
Snake Eater
Snake Eater II: The Drug Buster
Street Hunter
3-Way Thrash featuring D.A.M., Candlemass, and Dark Angel (A friend traded it to me)

Hellraiser 3 was the last decent Hellraiser IMO. And it's still pretty marginal.

Bad Biology.

Picked this up thanks to Shiney. It's the most recent movie by Frank (Basket Case) Henenlotter.
