"A Band Called Death" (2013)

 

Nope, it's not the story of the late Chuck Schuldiner and his legendary death-metal combo (though that would be pretty damn cool)... this documentary details the strange saga of "Death," a mid-70s Detroit hard rock band made up of three African American brothers who cut a record in 1975 and then promptly disappeared. When their music is rediscovered in the 21st century (thanks to the Internet) the two surviving brothers enjoy a bittersweet comeback.

This is an absorbing documentary about a forgotten bit of heavy rock history. I love learning about stuff like this. And "Death's" music sounds pretty bad-ass too!!

Yep. Same here. When I "watch" them, I'm usually doing something else as well, because I've seen them so many times I just quote it as it's playing.

"Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" (2001)

 

 

Those lovable stoners from Kevin Smith's "Clerks" find out that Hollywood is making a movie about them... without their permission, and they go off on a road trip to stop the film. Mayhem, naturally, follows them everywhere they go. Jay & Silent Bob get mixed up with a team of international female jewel thieves, steal a monkey, and are pursued by a very determined wildlife marshal (Will Ferrell). Foul mouthed slapstick fun with cameos by just about everyone in Hollywood.

 

 

Damn I LOVE this movie!!! Yea just about EVERYONE in Hollywood has a cameo....

Dead Snow (Norwegian: Død snø) is a 2009 Norwegian zombie comedy film directed by Tommy Wirkola, starring Charlotte Frogner, Stig Frode Henriksen, Bjørn Sundquist, Ane Dahl Torp, and Jenny Skavlan. The film centers on a group of students surviving a Nazi zombie attack in the mountains of Norway. The premise of the film is similar to that of the draugr - a Scandinavian folkloric undead greedily protecting its (often stolen) treasures.

^^ Dead Snow is on my Netflix list, but I haven't gotten round to watching it yet. My wife thinks the "Nazi zombie" idea is "stupid" (to which I replied, "if by 'stupid' you mean 'awesome,' I agree!" Haha) so she refuses to watch it w/me. I'm gonna have to wait till I have some "alone time" to catch that one.

Anywhoo, last one I saw was:

 

"Firestorm" (1998)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcHSj4wxpMw

 

Hollywood tried to turn former NFL great Howie Long into an honest-to-goodness action hero in this formulaic-but-fun butt kicker. Howie's a Wyoming "smokejumper" who battles a raging forest fire and a gang of escaped convicts (who set the fire in order to cover up their jailbreak). This enjoyable but instantly forgettable popcorn flick tanked at the box office and took Howie's movie career down with it, but William Forsythe is great as the sleazy bad guy and the fire scenes are suitably thrilling.

The Cave - decent adventure/monster flick

 

The Wild Bunch - one of the best westerns ever made

However there are English and German spoken versions as well.

Wonder how long til Hollywood remakes this as I see they are making a part 2, which obviously means there is a popularity factor.

The Santa Clause ... with the kids ... honest ...

No need to lie, mate. That's a classic Tim Allen film.

"Last Days Here" (2011)

 

In the 1970s, Pentagram could've been America's answer to Black Sabbath... but the unpredictable nature of lead singer Bobby Liebling f*cked it up for them and the band fell apart. Liebling then spent the next 30+ years living in his parents' basement, using tons of drugs and putting together numerous half-assed "new" Pentagram lineups, hoping to get a second shot at the big time. When a longtime Pentagram fan begins acting as Bobby's new manager and tries to help him achieve that dream, they hit many obstacles along the way.

 

This flick is like the darker side of "Anvil! The Story of Anvil," as both films cover similar themes (i.e. rockers who probably should've hung it up ages ago, but refuse to quit) although Bobby Liebling's story is more tragic than Anvil's. Still, it's a fascinating, though somewhat depressing, film that's worth a look. Now I gotta look into getting some of Pentagram's tunes, cuz they sound pretty bad-ass...!

Great movie...

 

"We're The Millers"....freaking hysterical.

[martinsane]

Watched and HIGHLY recommend Bill Hicks-American, both discs.

 

If you don't know who Bill Hicks is shame on you...

The Thanksgiving dishes are cleared away and that means it's time to start kickin' the annual Twisted Christmas film festival. First up...

 

"Jack Frost" (1997)

In this tongue-in-cheek comic horror cult classic, it's a few days before Christmas and a serial killer on his way to the execution chamber has a run-in with some experimental genetic material that turns him into a psycho Frosty. Once he's transformed, he seeks revenge on the cop who put him away in the first place.

 

...Seriously. I'm not makin' this sh*t up.

 

This hilarious (on purpose) zero-budget fun even stars a pre-"American Pie" Shannon Elizabeth as the town teenage tramp.

Obviously this is not to be confused with the family-friendly film by the same name starring Michael Keaton, which came out about a year after this... though I hear the Keaton movie is pretty horrific in its own right.
