Just watched Killer of Killers, the last Predator movie I hadn't seen, and did I miss any posts about Grendel King's fantastic man tiddies? Because they're all I can think about now. I'm enchanted by his gay aura.
Can’t say I’ve seen any posts about his giant bazongas and his bear aura no. This would be the first
My Letterboxd watchlist at this point is almost all just stuff I've seen you post about or review 😂
oh dear
I just watched Ravenous and I feel like I'm going to be a bit of an evangelist about it now. I expected satirical cannibalism, but I didn't expect a Dracula-esque angle to it via Robert Carlyle.
You don't just watch Ravenous, every person who lays eyes upon Ravenous becomes an acolyte to its greatness, to its sheer audacity. We all serve at Antonia Bird's alter.
But yeah Robert Carlyle gives an incredible performance in that film. Absolutely giving a "vampire master, give into your hunger" vibe. Also insanely homoerotic.
It took ordering a maybe unofficial (?) extremely basic DVD with grainy picture and awful sound and I had to change the region on my PS5, but I'm FINALLY watching Near Dark!
Oh my god its happening!!!!!!! Movie all time!!!! Everyone should be watching Near Dark!
I liked Romulus a lot despite some obvious nostalgia-exploiting issues, but I'll say the thing that made me happiest was that acid blood was finally shown as a constant problem.
In Aliens it comes up a couple times (Hicks, Drake, and I think Vasquez are all injured by the spray while shooting them down) and a few times in Resurrection (Vriess noticing his leg smoking, I'm pretty sure some of it leads to Christie's death, Ripley 8 uses hers to escape) but boy did they sure love it in Romulus. A prolonged death from it even, a whole scene dedicated to watching a guy just sit there and take it to the chest. And the floating acid blood rings were a neat visual.
Do you know where to find Near Dark? It seems impossible to find physically and digitally. Even the Washington DC public library system doesn't have it.
Near Dark is a troublesome little movie. Not nearly as bad as The Devils but pretty close. The US DVD is almost 25 years old and the Blu-Ray has been out of print for over a decade. There is a German Blu-Ray but I don't know much about it, some sellers have it on occasion.
Streaming wise it makes the rounds on Shudder, Criterion, and Tubi but is currently nowhere (booo hissss). This is one of those cases where piracy really is the only option for most people.
I saw Lost Boys for the first time tonight at Alamo Drafthouse and was really surprised that, at 34, I actually never got it spoiled for me.
The hangout/vibes part was fun, but the last act made me love it. The audience was cheering and clapping and laughing a lot. Great way to watch it for the very first time.
The characters in it are so fun and are so well written to carry you through the chill stuff. And then there are more blood explosions than you could ever predict if all you know is “teen vampire movie”. The glitter blood has also never been replicated. Like what a picture
Just watched Cure! I'm seeing Longlegs tomorrow, but I have a feeling those two movies would make a great triple-feature with The Exorcist 3.
CURE HIVE GROWS!!! I’m so glad you mentioned Exorcist 3 cause I was thinking that as well. I think they are all really closely related in theme and vibe. Also just being police procedurals with some sort of occult stuff going on.
