Kingsmen: The Secret Service.

 

I love this movie, it's really fucking awesome.

Homage to old Bond movies with lots of modern twists.

Great cast. Hope they make another

We'll today's your lucky day, cause guess what?? They're making a second part!! :D

 

Might be a prequel I don't remember anymore but there's a new one coming

 

 

Prequel would be great.

I'd say there's a lot to explore this way.

"Dark Universe" (1993)



After a space shuttle crashes in the Florida Everglades, a recovery team encounters the toothy, slime emitting extra-terrestrial that caused the crash in the first place. Naturally, he's in the mood for a few human snacks after his long space journey.

This ultra-cheap "Alien"/"Predator" wanna-be was produced by schlock kingpin Fred Olen Ray and it basically has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Ignore unless you have an extremely high tolerance for bad movie pain.

Star Wars : Rogue One (2016) - excellent

 

Star Trek : Beyond (2016) - excellent

 

Passengers (2016) - very good sci-fi flick...if you enjoyed "The Martian" you should like this...

 

Mechanic Resurrection (2016) - pretty good action flick

 

Resident Evil : The Final Chapter (2016) - about the same level as the rest of the series, probably just as well it is the last one...

 

Hearts In Atlantis (2001) - the best movie that I can remember that is based on a Stephen King story...

It's been a cold, damp, clammy "stay inside and watch movies" kinda day around here...


"Casino Royale" (2006)


Daniel Craig's first turn as James Bond also serves as a "gritty reboot" for the veteran spy series. Bond has just been given his "double-0" designation, and on his first mission he romances the lovely Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) and takes on a terrorist financier known as "Le Chiffre" in a high stakes poker tournament. This is only the second time I've seen "C.R." so I still haven't quite decided where it ranks in the overall Bond pantheon, but it was a damn fine suspense thriller.


and then for something completely different...


"Star Crash" (1979)


Ace star pilot and all around space hottie Stella Starr is hired by the Emperor of the Universe to search for a missing galactic prince and stop the evil Zarth Arn (Boo! Hiss!) from taking over the galaxy with a new super weapon. Cheap special effects, terrible acting, and corny, WTF dialogue ensues.

This candy-colored, totally over the top Italian "Star Wars" knock off introduced me to the wild 'n' wacky world of European exploitation flicks when I was a wee lad and I've loved it ever since. Yes, this movie is crap, but it's totally awesome crap.

"Graduation Day" (1981)



A high school track star suddenly drops dead during a race, and soon a mysterious black-gloved slasher starts picking off the rest of her teammates. Could the killer be the dead girl's sister? Her heartbroken boyfriend? The creepy track coach? Will any of them survive till Graduation Day?

This was a pretty typical early '80s slasher flick, it's watchable but nothin' special. Sharp eyed viewers may notice a very young, pre-"Wheel of Fortune" Vanna White (!) in a bit part.

A couple of horror movies:

Lights Out - good if you like Asian horror style movies. Even scarier if you have kids.

Hush - One of those intruder movies but a bit different as the lead female is deaf.

 

Both recommended.

Trolls, again. Pretty dang funny and quite entertaining.

 

31, omfg. Pure drivel. Not remotely shocking or scary or anything. Shame on you Rob Zombie for this cash grab.

 

Inferno, meh. More Vkear and Present Danger than Davinvi Code.

 

Son In Law, introduced the kids to the Paul Shore vehicle and the kids didn't mind at all. Of course the ever luscious Tiffany Amber Theison is a crowd pleasure no doubt.

 

X-Men, my daughter is big into the superhero movies so we are revisiting the older ones too and this one is nice. Of course it has all been done again and again in future installments but this one is nice. With no Stan Lee cameo and no end of trailer teaser.

 

Nerve, teen social media dare flick with a Franco and Eric Roberts daughter. Not bad but certainly made for teens.

Doctor Strange (2016) - decent superhero flick

 

Live By Night (2016) - very good gangster flick

I haven't watched anything for the last week because I came back from China with a Chinese flu.

I tried to get a vaccination before I left as well, but they weren't in yet :(

I've literally been sleeping for an hour every hour or two, so managed to squeeze in a few shows (Black Sails, Walking Dead, American Survivor - yes Geoff it's back on again)

So.... poor fuckin' me :( :( :( I just wanna be able to stay away for a few hours at a time and be able to taste what I'm eating and drinking....

RE: Rob Zombie....Man, who'd have thought he make some good movies and after 3 if them I was backing each new one to be great but since then he's been a terribly steep downward spiral....

My kids (adult kids as well) are all seeing Beauty And The Beast and apparently it's the best movie ever.

They are raving enough to make me actually want to see it....

"Black Mama, White Mama" (1973)

 

https://youtu.be/aUCC1QbH_kY

Pam Grier and Margaret Markov escape from a Filipino women's prison, with an army of cops, bounty hunters and even a killer pimp and his gang hot on their trail. Their getaway is complicated further by the fact that they hate each other's guts, and they're chained together.

So basically this is a Chicksploitation riff on the Tony Curtis/Sidney Poitier oldie "The Defiant Ones," with plenty of extra boobs, sleaze and ultra violence. Entertaining junk.

"Bat Woman" (aka "La mujer murcielago," 1968)




This seemed like appropriate viewing for April Fool's Day.

"Bat Woman" is a 1968 Mexican flick, obviously intended to cash in on the then-current Bat-Mania TV craze, about a butt-kickin' millionaire heroine and lady wrestler who fights gangsters and a mad scientist while wearing a Bat-cape, Bat-cowl and a bikini. In Spanish with English subtitles.

...good Lord, I really *will* watch just about any ol' piece of s**t that comes down the pike, won't I? Haha!

"It's So Easy And Other Lies" (2016)

 

This is a strange blend of concert film and documentary starring Duff McKagan of GnR fame, based on his autobiography of the same name. The bulk of the film is taken up by a "live reading" shot at Seattle's Moore Theater, where Duff reads excerpts from the book while a live band noodles muted versions of his greatest hits behind him. Some additional interviews with Slash, Matt Sorum, and various members of Duff's family pad out the run time. It wasn't terrible but it was kind of dry. Skip the flick and read the book (which was fantastic) instead.
