10.17.11 | So far I watched a bit of "night of the living dead", "poltyrgiest", "the funhouse" and now "candyman: farewell to flesh".
don't tell me I missed the original candyman that movie is fucking great. but the sequel so far is pretty good although in the gore scenes you can really see the smaller budget.
Re: The Walking Dead it was good to see the show get off on a good start after the weak season 1 finale.

10.17.11 | Anything worth watching coming up? |
americanohno
10.17.11 | Well the candyman sequel just ended it's basically a retread of the original but set in New Orleans instead of Chicago and with more backstory. The film has beuatiful cinematography and just reuses Philip Glass' score of the original so the music's amazing otherwise the film doesn't come close to the original but it's alright Tony Todd's still there.
Um recspecs Mimic 2 is on now I've never seen it but I believe it's the sequel to the del Toro picture Mimic which I haven't seen either.
but even if it's bad this is the season to watch bad horror movies so I'd say if ya got a couple of hours tune in. |

10.17.11 | OMG!!! Jerry from Parks and Rec is in Mimic 2 and I think is about to be killed by a giant cockaroach.
Where's Ron!!! |

10.17.11 | Poor Jerry he died right after he did a single pull-up. |

10.17.11 | Well if anyone is down for a bad horror-comedy flick watch "Zombies of Mass Destruction". |
americanohno
10.18.11 | So they just showed "Survival of the Dead" and maybe it's 'cuz I had low expectations but I really liked the film. It had a lot of flaws but they didn't detract from all the good things, and I really liked what Romero was goin' for with the Hatfields and McCoys in the zombie apocalypse. And tbh the very last shot by itself made the whole thing worth it.
@ Recspecs
I'll look into that one I heard good things about it. I saw three other films from that year's After Dark film festival two were good ("Dread" and "Lake Mungo") one was dreadful ("The Final").
A good film from the first After Dark (2006 I think) is "The Abandoned". |

10.18.11 | fall is incomplete without bad horror and sci fi movies. it's all about AMC and TCM |
americanohno
10.18.11 | I don't get TCM : - (
Right now The Hills Have Eyes remake is on and fuck is this a nasty movie. The last movie that made me feel this shitty was Ichi the Killer but at least that movie was funny. |

10.18.11 | every year, baby |

10.18.11 | Okay I came around on The Hills Have Eyes remake it's a nasty immoral movie but once it get going it's a lot of fun. I mean the Straw Dogs reference when the weak, white liberal character puts his broken glasses on and smiles after he looks on the motherfucking smackdown on that retard mutant. Also the dog goes on a fucking rampage after he sees what those mutants did to his doggie friend. Fuck I need to get me a pair of german shepards. |
