Seen any good movies?

I just bought the original (1973) "Wicker Man" at a used CD/DVD store. Kind of a creepy movie, but really good. I'd recommend it to any of you that enjoy older horror movies. I need to watch it again, it's one of those kind of flicks that you watch again to see what you might have missed the first time around. I haven't seen the Nicolas Cage remake, but Rotten Tomatoes gave it less than 10%! I don't think I'll be watching it anytime soon!

I also bought the Vincent Price classic "House on Haunted Hill" but I haven't watched it yet. Can't wait! :glee:

The Shooter- Very good!

Redbelt.

I thought it was pretty cool.

Never heard of it RF....what's that?

I caught that original a few years ago on IFC. Very good. Much better than the remake.

I watched Tremors 2 on Chiller channel late last night. Not as great as the original, but still good. Peace.

I just recorded the first "Tremors" off of Encore this afternoon with my DVD-R. Haven't seen it in ages, can't wait to watch it again soon!!

The Tremors series are good corny fun for all. The TV series they had for a while on Sci-Fi was frickin' awesome too IMO.

Yesterday at the $1.50 show ($0.75 on Tuesday-used to be $0.50):

Kung Fu Panda-Loved it! I have yet to be disappointed in those animated movies and this one will be part of my collection when it gets released on DVD.

Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull-Another awesome movie that keeps the spirit of the others.

I didn't even know there was a "Tremors" TV series. Was Michael Gross (a.k.a. Burt Gummer) in it?

Yes. he was the only "original" in it. It wasn't bad. I remember it being on like 7 or 8 o'clock on a Friday night a few years ago on Sci-Fi.

Redbelt is a martial arts drama tells the story of a fateful event which leads to a job in the film business for top mixed-martial arts instructor Mike Terry. Though he refuses to participate in prize bouts, circumstances conspire to force him to consider entering such a competition.

It is a good movie, but it is more about its characters than its fights. Don't go in and expect another Bloodsport or Enter the Dragon style movie.

Diary of the Dead.

Watching Dirty Harry: The Enforcer right now. Awesome.

I thought that one was brilliant, it accomplished what Cloverfield tried and failed to do.

I hated that one. Talk about a plotless movie. The whole thing was just a lame excuse for Romero to launch a screed against the media (which admittedly is justly deserved). But if I want to be preached at, I'll tune in the next Billy Graham crusade.

Just Cause.

BTW, CHUD rules!

The ultimate in B movie cheese!

I watched this time tested turd over the weekend

Was the remake any good?

What remake?

Sorry, I misread that. I thought it was Children of the Damned.

Also,

I'm about 2/3 of the way through "Botched". So far this is a funny horror/thriller with deliberately bad dialogue, campy overracting and gore.

I think I'll just cop-and-paste my post from the "What did you do today?"-thread:

I recently watched "Comic Strip Presents... More
Bad News". Totally hilarious heavy metal spoof/mockumentary in the same
style as "This is Spinal Tap". Haha, I laughed out loud a couple of
times, for example when they thrash the hotel after argumenting about
who's gonna be Pete Townshend in their The Who-game! Never seen this
one before and I know this is a classic among metalheads, shame on me!
But now I've seen it! Cool cameos at Monsters of Rock in the end by
Ozzy Osbourne, Joe Elliot, Phil Collen, Lemmy, Phil Taylor, Rudolf
Schenker and Klaus Meine! Everyone's task just to tell the camera how
much Bad News sucks! Great movie.
I also watched Judas Priest's Live Vengeance DVD. I've seen it a 100 times before but you can never get enough of that concert, can you?

That amp is pathetic. You couldn't amplify a fart through that!
