BEST and Worst movies....lately.

[cheezydemon]

While it would be great to hear the best and worst movies ever, that would create much debate and so start your own thread. My best and worst LATELY.


Best - "Shaun of the Dead":) ingenious.


Worst - "Howard's End":( Ahhhhh....(drools)no plot...no plot!

[thehotpepper.com]

Howard's End 1992... lately?? :lol:

[chilehunter]

touristiea (sp?) is a alright movie, makes you not want to go on vacation in south america ;):lol:

I know these are a little old but IMO they're really good, both "underworld" movies :cool: 2nd is better, the begining scene is :cool: as is the rest of it.

[texas blues]

I saw the new Bourne movie the other day. It rawks!!

[cheezydemon]

Recently as in "I saw it recently", or "my wife made me watch it lately"

[Chris Kewley]

I'm into movies that most people(at least here I would think) have never heard of
Best: WATERPOWER (1977) yes it's a old movie, but new to me. Jamie Gillis is fantastic in this flick, not for the faint of heart.

Worst: THE TEASER (1973): Something Wierd Video put this one out, staring a young RENE BOND, but never lives up to it's beginning.

If those are too obscure for you

Best: Hot Fuzz: not as good as Shaun Of The Dead, but still fantastic.

Worst: Reno 911: Miami............BLAH complete & utter garbage, zero laughs.

[thehotpepper.com]

Worst: Reno 911: Miami............BLAH complete & utter garbage, zero laughs.
It was worse than any of the Police Academy sequels.

Oh good lord!!! :lol:

Not gonna go there....nope, not here.


I thought HOT FUZZ was awesome...better than SHAUN OF THE DEAD...maybe.


Really looking forward to 3:10 to Yuma. I love westerns!

[Chris Kewley]

the worst movie i ever saw was that one with nicolas cage in it where he was an ambulance driver. i couldnt even finish watching it. i dont even know the name of it

the best movie ive seen recently was 300. and i rented it on netflix. i never go to the theater, its a waste of time and you pay all of those morons in Hollywood so they can buy cocaine and have it in their own pocket and say it wasn't theres.

Brining Out The Dead is the movie with Nicolas Cage & I quite liked it. Not great but not bad.

well it is bad enough it would make the dead die again

[cheezydemon]

Nicholas Cage. He is a lesson in how not to do it. He started with:
Wild at Heart - awesome
Raising Arizona - another freaking classic
Com Air - .....uhhhhh what?
The Rock - .........
Face Off - ?????(who told him he was an action star???)
More action movies, etc., etc.

I like a good action movie, but he was GOOD in those first couple of roles! What happened?

Have you seen wild at heart? I am not saying that you are wrong, I am just saying that IF you had seen it (which you haven't since we are having this talk) you would see that, yes, he is pretty damn good. But if you had seen his earlier work, you would have thought that he was destined for better roles than stallone or schwarzennegger. Do yourself a favor and check out Wild at Heart.

[chuk hell]

I love all of David Lynch's movies. I just ordered INLAND EMPIRE and can't wait to see it. I wish LOST HIGHWAY would get a R1 release.

[cheezydemon]

I love all of David Lynch's movies. I just ordered INLAND EMPIRE and can't wait to see it. I wish LOST HIGHWAY would get a R1 release.

I am with you! Lynch is great. But no one else could have played that role(Wild at heart, sorry I will get over it here momentarily) as well as Nicholas Cage did. It wasn't just that it was a david lynch movie, he was well cast. Anyhow....

You can't buy Lost Highways? Since I have been married and had 2 kids I don't buy too many movies anymore. (Except teletubbies, Harry Potter, etc.)

[Sickmont]

I am with you! Lynch is great.


Speaking of Lynch....i broke out my dvd of Blue Velvet the other night and laughed myself to sleep with it. And i just picked up Phantasm for $4.99. I'll be cracking up to that one tonight!

[Chris Kewley]

Air Guitar Nation, fantastic doc.

Sarah Silverman Jesus is Magic, WHY is she so popular. OK she's a good looking lady, but if I'm to watch a women on a stage, her clothes better be coming off. Horrendously UNFUNNY .

[imaguitargod]

Halloween (Rob Zombie's)....horrible!

[chuk hell]

Halloween (Rob Zombie's)....horrible!

That's what I heard. I haven't bothered to see it. Too bad, I thought The Devil's Rejects was pretty good. This never sounded like a good idea...enough with the remakes already!

I had heard he was going to do a non-horror movie after DRs. I guess the Weinstein rats waved enough money under his nose to make this crap.

haven't seen it yet either. yea, the remakes are getting old. seems like we're in the age of unoriginality. remakes of movies, cars, ha well i guess that is all i can think of..but it is late and i've been drinking rum. :lol:

[Chris Kewley]

Retard-O-Tron......Fantastic mixed video tape(DVD) of some really bizzare going on's

Superchick...Ok, not so bad, but in a red headed step child kind of way. You'll have to love bad(as in good/bad) movies to like this one.

Delta Farce....OMG :shocked:... BAD...NO :shocked:, HORRIBLE,....NO :shocked:, GOD FORSAKENLY UNFORGIVEABLE.. MAY THE MAKERS BE DRAWN & QUARTERED.. TARRED & FEATHERED... MAY I BE YOUR HUMAN TOILET... kind of bad..............YEA this movie sucked, BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:shocked:

[Sickmont]

Nothing tops "The Big Lebowski". Period. To me anyways.

[chuk hell]

I still really want to see 3:10 TO YUMA. Love the westerns.

[imaguitargod]

Nothing tops "The Big Lebowski". Period. To me anyways.

I actually look like the dude right now too. I was going to go as that but decided to go as "Resurected Jesus" (or Zombie Jesus as I like to call him...what? He died and come back, that's a zombie in my book ;) ). I'm having my costumer ex-roommate Melannie make me a custom costume for that.

As for ass-tastic movies right now....I just saw Transformer. What a steaming pile of bantha poodo! Horrible script, horrible directing (Bay's moviees are so formulaic. I shaw the same scenes in The Rock that I did in Transformers...ugh), lame lame joke....luckally, I didn't have to pay for it. We watched it at work.

[enix2093]

HA! I just got done with a bad movie marathon I've been punishing myself and friends with all week.

Stay far away from these piles of crap:

Night of the Demon (the sasquatch one)
Strike Commando

Yeah, I love WILD ZERO. LOCK AND LOLL!!!! :hell:

[chuk hell]

Just saw AMERICAN GANGSTER and thought it wass quite good; one of the better crime/gangster films I've seen. Maybe not on a par with The Godfather I/II or Goodfellas but easily as good as Casino and probably better than The Departed or Scarface( Pacino).

Worth seeing for amazing period detail alone. The "true story" aspect makes it more interesting as well.

Better than The Departed, WOW, I chalked this one up as a rent but maybe I'll have to go to the theatre. I've read that it has a very Blaxploitation vibe going on(which intrigues me to no end) did you sense that?
Best: Basket Case 2

Worst: Malibu High, although I did enjoy it:lol:

[chuk hell]

Yeah, I really liked it Chris but there seems to be some divided opinion. Check the thread over at 'maniacs...your millage may vary.

I would say the film was too high budget/profile to have a real blaxploitation vibe but it does a great job of capturing the look and feel of early 70s Harlem/New York/New Jersey.

[chuk hell]

Saw a couple recent flicks via netflix:

KNOCKED UP- VERY funny comedy from some of the people who did 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN. Nice to see something so funny that's actually kind of sweet and not mean-spirited.


PERFUME: THE STORY OF A MURDERER- Strange movie about a poor slob born into poverty in 18th century France who has the most sensitive nose in the world. He sets out to make the ultimate perfume ...unfortunatly he hass to kill young women to do it. Some strange goings on in this. Good period detail. Allan Rickman and Dustin Hoffman in decent supprt roles. Not for everyone.

[Chris Kewley]

Best: Horrors Of Malformed Men
Fantastic Japanese horror about a madman who surgically alters human beings into monsters. Fantastic 10/10

Worst: Hellcats
Gawd knows I love Bikersploitation films, & this film falls into that catagory, but WOW what a dog this film is. Still fun in a She Devils On Wheels kind of way. 5/10

[chuk hell]

SUPERBAD I just about laughed myself silly with this one. My wife was slightly offended at some of the humour but boy did I find this funny. Best highschool sex comedy since "Porkys".

RESCUE DAWN Werner Herzog has already told the story of Dieter Dengler in the documentary "Little Dieter Needs to Fly". Here we hava a narrative film of the story of Dengler who was shot down over Laos in 1965 and escaped the POW camp six months later. I think this had the largest budget Herzog has ever worked with and it shows in great production values. Christian Bale is excellent ( as usual) in the role of Dengler. Highly recommended.

[Biscombe]

Best films out at the moment are Tarantino's Death Proof and Planet Terror.

Time Bandits, Amadeus and Sexy Beast will always be up there for me!

The worst film I ever saw was The Straight Story by David Lynch! I nearly asked for my money back!

[Omri]

Saw 'Bee Movie' and I liked it a lot.
Also it reminded me of 'Goodfellas' (You need to see it, if you want it to make sense), also a wonderful movie (actually one of my favorite).

[cheezydemon]

THE MIST was better than I would have believed. The best Steven King flick since The SHINING.

[AlabamaJack]

I always liked The Toxic Avenger

[cheezydemon]

Dead Alive is no where near recent, but it is a must see for any gore/humor lovers.

I have the godfather boxset and have watched it many times...I'll have to check out these new movies

[Chris Kewley]

Blade Runner The super dupper 5 disc briefcase collection. One of my all time favorite movies FINALLY gets a worthy special edition.

Mr. Beans Holiday Not that it was really a bad movie, just not my bag.

[rainbowberry]

Mr. Beans Holiday Not that it was really a bad movie, just not my bag.

I saw that too, once you've seen Mr. bean on TV so many times it's just not funny anymore. Last week I saw The Golden Compass, not very impressed but it wasn't my choice to see it. I know a lot of people liked Happy Feet but I was disappointed. The Chronicles Of Narnia was good, and Peter Pan was alright. I fell asleep during Brother Bear years back so I can't comment on that really. Maybe I should go for films over a PG rating :confused:

[Pam]

Last week I saw The Golden Compass, not very impressed but it wasn't my choice to see it.

Oh, I thoroughly enjoyed it! I've been referring to my Australian Shepherd as my daemon ever since. I wanted to go see Beowulf, but it was in 3D, and I can't see 3D...no depth perception.

My company and I watched the first 4 Harry Potter movies over the holiday, too. That was good fun.

My 3 year old and 5 year old enjoyed it thoroughly and still mention it.....enough said!

I would like to see the Golden Compass with my 5 year old, but I heard it was horrible.(hard to tell if it is the jesus freaks putting out bad press or the real deal)

(p.s. No offense meant to sensible Christians by "jesus freaks" the ones I mean are the ones who went to "The Last Temptation" with picket signs.)

[rainbowberry]

Oh, I thoroughly enjoyed it! I've been referring to my Australian Shepherd as my daemon ever since.



The second half of The Golden Compass was the best bit for me, I found it a little slow going at first. Also even at my age I was still in a bit of a sulk as I wanted to see Enchanted, but the 11 year old I took with me said he'd rather die a slow, painful death than sit through that. Here's my untamed Daemon Pam.

http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s275/tuliptwinkle/Naughtymurphy.jpg

[cheezydemon]

How did your 11 year old like the GC?

[rainbowberry]

He enjoyed it but his concentration isn't brilliant, especially with a large bag of Skittles (colourings and a hyper kid :() He said he didn't understand certain parts of it but then he was whispering to me through the vital bits. He likes easy things like Mr. Bean and Scooby Doo.

[cheezydemon]

Probably not good for my 5 year old then. The ads look good. Any one who missed my post on the MIST here it is again. The best Stephen King movie since the Shining. And by that I mean that almost everything since the Shining has sucked horribly!(possible exception The Green Mile)
It is the only King film I have seen that is true to the story.

BEST:Emanuelle & The White Slave Trade not as good as some of the other titles in the series, but still allot of fun.

Worst: Balls Of Fury One or two funny scenes & a hap-hazzard hommage to Enter The Dragon. Not even the mighty Christopher Walken could save this filck

Well I went with my 6 year old to see the Bee Movie, Im pleased to say I now have a better understanding of how they operate, it was a treat to watch:), found myself laughing out loud when noone else was, often :oops:

Someone with a big hollywood budget should really get a big production going with some of King's movies. I for one am a huge King fan and know that with some actual money behind it, some of his work could make for excellent movies such as The Stand, or The Langoliers. Both were great books but adapted to the screen horribly. Only good movies made from King books are :The Shining, Storm Of The Century, and The Green Mile.

[Sauceman51]

Just finished reading the Dark Tower novels by SK, all 8. Guess it would have to be a mini series to keep the story close to the original theme.

[chilehunter]

perfect stranger, was a really good movie. great story line/plot, kept you guessing trying to figure things out. its worth renting it!

[xgrafcorex]

anyone see that new aliens vs predator movie? i was looking to see if it was playing near me, but i think i missed it. there's only one movie theater in town, and it only has 3 movies at a time.

[cheezydemon]

I loved those books....right up intil #6 or so.

Warning SPOILER

When they started hurling "Harry Potter" brand weapons, and the book shop owner brougt his "prized" rare error edition books through and one of them was Salem's Lot and the old guy from Salem's Lot starts reading about himself......... I put it down and never looked back. I like almost everything he has ever written, but that was some seriously stupid sh*t!

[cheezydemon]

I heard it was super violent and gorey, but not as good as the last AP movie..... If that is true, It is like saying Mcdonalds has come out with a new super greasy burger, but that it isn't even as good as the crap they used to serve.

Sorry! I thought that the last AP movie sucked. the only thing the least bit intrigueing was how the predator befriended the human chick.

[xgrafcorex]

i wasn't crazy about the last one either. it was ok but didn't hold a candle to say alien, aliens, or predator.

the new one looked cool in the previews, and yea..seemed to be filled with blood, guts, and death. kinda seems like it will be just a bunch of action that doesn't really require much thought to follow. :lol: not saying that it wouldn't be enjoyable. just doesn't seem too deep i guess you could say.

either way, i'm gonna watch it because i'm a fan both series of movies. might have to wait for the dvd to be available though.

[cheezydemon]

I'm a fan too. Predator 2 has been on tv a lot lately. It was os awesome just because they didn't have Arnold in the second one! I was blown away!

I love the alien series too. The "resurrection" was a little too off the wall at first, but I have come to love it.

I knew the first AP movie would be bad when they brought back that Bishop guy in .....Again! I know, I know the other ones were droids, but how frigging long did that guy live? and was that the only kind of droid ever made?

[Chris Kewley]

Watched:
Sunshine Fantastic Sci-Fi. Thick atmospheare & I rather liked the slasher type ending, most people didn't so I've read.
Shoot'Em Up What could have been a GREAT movie is just so so. I still enjoyed it, but the action felt alittle stilted to me, almost like he thought himself outdoing John Woo only to pull himself back so that would not happen.
Children Of Men Don't know why it took me this long to see this movie, what an outstanding flick.
& Lastly

Addio Ultimo Uomo A Mondo film from 1978. It had Italian audio only, no subs, but do you realy need subs or English when watching a Mondo film! One of the better ones I've seen, pretty frick'n gross at times.

[chilehunter]

if you're a "Saw" fan "Saw IV" is a great movie! they did a much better job than the last one "Saw III" which I thought was dumb.

as for "Resident Evil, Extinction" such a let down! IMO. oh why did they leave the tried & true method from their 1st - nonstop zombie killing with some good background music :lol: thats action packed. "Extinction" is not action packed.

[cheezydemon]

Thats a shame CH. The first 2 are kind of my "guilty secret" films. I know they aren't great, but I watch them whenever they are on!(between kids and work etc. I never get to see more than 15 minutes at a time)

Anyone seen Cloverfield? It looks like blair witch meets Godzilla. The separation factor is huge...by that I mean either it is great or it sucks uncontrollably.

Somebody here at work was talking about a class action suit against the studio that put out that trash.

[cheezydemon]

Lol, there seems to be an adverse reat=ction by some people that gets motion sickness. I have read a review by someone who had to step out of the theater to throw up, but who actually liked the film.

Just because people are vomiting doesn't mean the film is bad. (wierd as that seems)

[Chris Kewley]

Best: RAMBO-This kicked all kinds of ass. The best action movie in the last 15+ years & much better than the parts 2 & 3, IMO. It is a must for all action fans.

Worst: Good Luck Chuck, My gawd I lasted about 15 min in this one.

Really? i might just have to check it out then....especially if it makes you react like you're on a roller coaster. That could be amusing indeed.

[ring sting]

I recently watched "I am Legend" and, well, really, STOP MAKING REMAKES.
This was Hollywood's 3rd attempt at this story. personally, apart from the ketchup blood, Charlton Heston's version, "the Omega Man" was pretty good. Will Smith is overrated.

As for the best I've seen recently, I dont know whether it counts, but the Family Guy movie from the start of season 6, where the rip off the Star Wars movie is prettty good.

[ring sting]

For sick ass comedy I gotta go with "Meet The Feebles" as an all time favourite.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meet_the_Feebles

Also, by the same director is "Bad Taste" a blood splatter movie worth a mention. Some of Jackson's best.

Amen! And I know it has been mentioned, but also by those sickos:
Dead Alive - the singularly most god awfully kick ass movie of all time!!!!!

It is far superior to Bad Taste IMHO (but to each their own!)

It sets the bar for :
gore...(Our hero charges through a room of zombies armed with a running lawnmower),
irreverent ass kicking..(upon seeing the zombies coming to life in his church yard, a priest screams "I kick ass for the Lord!!" and rips off his cassock to reveal Kung FU style pajamas. He then proceeds to execute impressive hand to hand destruction)
mind blowingly sick endings....watch the damn movie, I don't want to give it away.

[ring sting]

I thought that was Bad Taste! Yes, the lawn mower scene ROCKS!!

[cheezydemon]

Lol, Bad Taste was worth seeing too. But GOD!! Dead Alive is awesome front to back.

[chilehunter]

I guess this thread has become nothing more than a critic thread of movies they've seen recently.
well here goes,

doomsdays 2012 - DUMB!!! I only rented it because wordwiz was talking about the 2012 end of the word thing so I was curious. wordwiz dont worry it'll be just fine all that needs to be done is have a woman give birth on a table in a mayan temple - it'll reverse the affects from all that cosmic stuff ;) :lol:

gone baby gone - 2 thumbs up, it was a very good movie! I think it'd fall into the drama catagory it'll keeep you guessing.

Hallelujah! Bad Taste, Feebles, and Dead Alive are Peter Jackson's three greatest films. My friend and I once debated whether those movies would be better or worse if he had the type of budget he had for TLotR series for his first three movies. The answer we came up with was "no way".

I actually have a .wav file of "I kick ass for the Lord!" on my computer, I hear it every time I turn it off.

That is freaking awesome DTV!!!

An awesome throwback to the 1970's "college kids in the woods" horror movies but with a nice twist, Thoroughly entertaining. Freaking hilarious to boot.

I just watched The Girl Next Door. It's kinda like when you see an obese woman bend over -- you wish you hadn't. Towards the end: very, very wrong.

[xgrafcorex]

Really? i might just have to check it out then....especially if it makes you react like you're on a roller coaster. That could be amusing indeed.

i saw it not too long ago..was pretty good i thought. had the whole room to myself too! haha thanks to it being mexico, mo and 2:30ish in the afternoon on a weekday. i enjoyed it though..of course, i don't get motion sickness either..that may have helped. worth a watch and definitely seems to be one of those movies that are better to see on a huge screen with loud speakers.

Amen! And I know it has been mentioned, but also by those sickos:
Dead Alive - the singularly most god awfully kick ass movie of all time!!!!!

i loved that one! only watched it once...the lawnmower scene kicks ass. haha it was absurdly gory at that point. :D

Evil dead, Evil Dead 2, Army of Darkness. I could live without the 1st one, but ED2 and A of D must be respected out of this trilogy. Especially ED2!!!!!

[klyth]

Hahah -- I own Dead Alive and the special edition of Bad Taste... So good...

But yeah, Evil Dead movies deserve awards. Of some sort.

I'm assuming there are Troma fans here...

Just watched Michael Clayton, great flick, best I've seen thus far this year. The worst ? Cloverfield sucked bigtime IMO. The movie i'm looking forward to is Indy IV !!

[chilehunter]

ok I watched " southland tales " the other night, & all I can say is IGG sit back & eat a 1/8th of shrooms & watch this movie :lol: it might make more sense in that state of mind than being sober :lol:

I got some things about it during the movie, but for most of the movie I was like WTF is going on & not in the normal kind of movie where you didnt know whats going on. I only fully understood what they (movie makers) where shooting for when I watched the special features, dont ruin the movie by watching that 1st!

star studded cast, just a weird movie.

I generally too busy visiting the "Orange Place" or trying to crawl into my shoe when I'm on shrooms to watch a movie....but I can get into the mind set pritty easly then I'll watch it. Sounds interesting.

[chilehunter]

IGG - :lol:
heres another good movie " shrooms " its a good suspense/horror movie.

[chuk hell]

Watched I AM LEGEND and, though I thought I would hate it, being a fan of the book, I thought it was pretty good. CGI sucked though.

Same here, couldn't even imagine Will Smith taking this role without any action. he did a wonderful job, actually.
Off to see 'Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street'. heard Johnny Depp did a good job.

[chilehunter]

I watched "sweeney todd : demon barber ..." today (well not fully watched it but reason is next)
all I can say is I'd rather have fresh bhut jolokias rubbed into my eyes than watch this movie!!!

I was ready to shut the movie off within the first couple minutes, but gave it the benefit of the doubt & hoped it got better, but I couldnt take it any longer so it was turned off 20 minutes into the movie.

I CANT stand musical movies! & this movie has singing in EVERY scene!!
they ruined a good movie by putting all the singing crap in the movie!
all this is my opinion.

[Omri]

WOW, ok. :shocked:
Got some snacks ready, so haven't started watching it yet. I don't hate musicals, so let's give it a shot.

[chilehunter]

well good luck to you omri, I guess if you dont mind musical movies then have fun watching it. I on the other hand do not like them, in fact I really hate those types of movies.
but other than that the plot seemed like it'd be a good horror movie, but why add the musical scenes ?

[Omri]

Thanks! I got it all ready, so now I'm really off to see the movie. :D

[Omri]

That was a long one...
Well it can't be a horror movie because the hero is also the murderer, and the murdered one is simply a ahole, so most people won't relate with him.
If you really haven't seen all of it, it's a damn shame. ending is freakishly expected, but weird.

The technical aspect is amazing. from effects to scenery and clothing. the music sometimes overpower the actual words, but the musical part is actually not too bad.
It's nice seeing a man mourns with a song, and the fact they keep it nonstop is better than just the occasional and inappropriate singing.

[chilehunter]

well I agree with the whole layout/effects/clothing/etc.... was nice for what I saw,this is why I tried to put up with the singing but just couldnt so off it went 20 mins into the movie.
horror movie I didnt know I just figured it was a slasher movie since it is about a barber that kills.

if you think pausing for about 1 minute to speak some words then go right back to singing, is not too much, well then you like musical movies.
me on the other hand if I want to watch a musical I'd watch a concert with music I like vs some opera type music.

I just watche3d The Fountin with my mom. I damn near balled my eyes out for 90% of the movie. Boy, that just struck a chord with me. What a beautiful film.

Great concept, not so much performance.
Just not interesting enough to make me want to watch all of it. I did watch all of it, just not willingly. :lol:

[cheezydemon]

I haven't seen Sweeney, but Depp and Burton are Batting 1000 so far and I would pay to see a film about a turd if they made it.

No musicals CH? Check out "Cannibal, the musical" Campy but freakishly awesome! It is a Troma film.

P.S. I also started watching Omri's sig recently. I haven't quite finished it, but I hope to soon!;)
