Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer - the most vapourwave film I have ever seen. Murder still life to moody synths and not a japanese logo top in sight. Videoyourselvesbuttnaked/10

Cheers for the heads up! Richard Stanley a true cyberpunk legend. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_Soul_(2014_film)

Glengettie welsh tea by the potful - more addictive than dank memes

Uwe Boll to host next year's Oscars ceremony. Arses would clench tighter than a charity box down the Mile End.

Blair Witch 2 is a masterpiece! Not quite ghosts in the woods but definitely babies growing in the woods - The Unborn (NOT the Goyer SOS version but the 1991 Brooke Adams one) http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/167703-retro-shock-theater-the-unborn-1991/

Balls, I was looking forward to this one too. Not many horror anthologies are better than Creepshow, even the sequel is better than most. Did you see Creepshow 3? Yikes, it was bad direct to video but yeah I love The Raft, because titties. So there was a universality to my over keen watching of that segment! The bloke was a sucker for dem tatas.

Mother Night the film with Nick Nolte and Alan Arkin. Nowhere near as hilarious as the book. Vonnegut's writing loses some of it's sharpness in the film but nonetheless the story kicks ass. Sheryl Lee is in it also playing his wife. Maybe the last truly free American Howard W Campbell Jr. Good to see Vonnegut on celluloid as well, his name in the credits "Sad man on street" his despair is missed. Nolteisscholarly/10

Gourmet pies are the new gourmet burgers. Nottingham gave me this one called a Vork Pie - onions, mushrooms, lentils, cheese and herbs.

It felt to me like Gladiator in the Rocky Mountains? Soundtrack made it feel trippy at times, Alva Noto collaboration with Sakamoto.

Gordon's Daughter of Darkness (1990) - An american in bucharest sees beyond the four dimensions. Mia Sara (WOW!) and Colin Towns on keys. Basic story told quite well indeed. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099368/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 Saragetsmybodytemperatureup/10

What an EP this was... http://www.discogs.com/Richard-B--Steve-Rachmad-Superman-Legacy-Of-The-Lost-World/release/145089

Also just saw Villenueve's Enemy which was a companion piece to that Lovecraft film in so many ways. Made me feel so perverse and the ending is more Lovecraftian than the Gordon one. What is missing from that Gordon adaptation? I really enjoyed Dagon too.

Stuart Gordon's Dreams in the Witchhouse - Gordon continues his one man mission to spread the word of Lovecraft. Part of the Masters of Horror series. It features a rat with human face which is more allegorical than I can imagine.

This thread is great for entering a random page number then finding a recommended film. This film is on youtube (HDRIP) and is about to be watched. Thanks for the recommendation.

Carrying on your lolita theme - try The Babysitter, Wild Things, Boxing Helena and both Lolita's.

On a Mann binge - first Manhunter, then Thief and next is his latest Blackhat. Thief at times mesmerising but then all his films deal with capitalism and the quest for the american dream don't they? Thief does have the best gas powered flamethrower in a film ever though defo. The Tangerine Dream soundtrack for Thief is awful. New age done with no imagination and bad guitar overlays. Froese and the lads were getting in on the high life with a Hollywood pay cheque by this time I reckon and it shows. Infact let's just call it Tangerine Dream - Thieves. Lightthatgas/10

WOW! Didn't realise the writer of this film could make a career out of crap movies? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_De_Luca

Watched all three Cube films back to back - only time it went low budget was the ending of the final film in the forest. Apart from that mind expanding stuff from a film recorded on a tiny one room film set. Inparadoxeslietruth/10

White Bird in a Blizzard - Araki takes us on a fanboy 80s nostalgia american dream mixed with a bit of Daniel Clowes sexuality exploration. Only watched it as I have the soundtrack. LeadnakedfirmtitsnotmywordsbutThomasJane's/10

Never seen this! Welles and Bradbury symbiotically sucking at each other's creative teets for nearly two hours. A must see.
-
George Gittoes "Snow Monkey" - Aussie bloke and woman live in Jalalabad for four years. The kids are violent, George brings a diplomacy to the country by setting up an arts centre in the city. It's like an Afghani blaxploitation film mixed with a news report from a westerner in Afghanistan. Top bloke and top film.

The script originally developed for the first Transformers movie partially took place in space, the planet the transformers came from. It didn't work. Spielberg was brought onto the project, and removed the space element. His reasoning was: outer space movies don't work. As soon as you're in a location so remote from ours, an audience's ability to relate is stripped away a few levels and therefore the movie won't be as much of a success. That's when he gave the movie it's premise: a boy who gets his first car. Hired new writers, brought in car-obsessed Michael Bay to oversee, and now they're developing the 5th in the franchise. Star Wars?

It Follows - the scene in the swimming pool was like that Medal of Honour game where you stormed the beach, all your comrades dying from bullets in the water. Seems to be a thing now to have moody synth work in your film. Starry Eyes was another. Just grabbed this, will watch it tonight, cheers. Went to IDFA in Amsterdam last week, saw maybe 30+ documentaries. Wiseman lets the footage speak for itself.

Barry Lyndon? He gave us one of the first first person viewpoints that would be copied in games for years to come and also the thought that a man might use a woman to marry for wealth and privilege by blowing smokerings in her face just after marriage was one of the funniest scenes he ever did..

Terence Davies's's's's's's's Sunset Song - 100 years ago in Scotland people lived under the shadow of the Cross. A young nymphlet is burdened with responsibility as her family disintegrate around her. Who'd have thought cold weather, overtly religious communities and a manual labour life could lead to sexual repression? Wonderful/10 Looks like a normal party in Los Angeles during the 80s to me...
