Recommend some good movies!

in my opinion, which means what outside of my mind, the greatest zombie anything of all time, is return of the living dead, which someone already mentioned.  I give, silent moments on honor to that film and the line of 'send more cops' will last forever.

Was told over the weekend that "It Follows" was a fun movie. Was also intrigued by "Ex Machina"… Anyone seen either of these? Wanna head out to the movies and catch one of these.
Since horror is the topic of the day; yes to It Follows.  It Follows is an excellent movie with an interesting premise.  Rent/download/stream/buy it soon, it is definitely something I would recommend as an avid horror movie fan.

Edit:  I just noticed this is from months ago (I searched for the movie title in the thread to see if anyone mentioned it).

I agree. I watched in in high school in installments during lunch (on VHS!) and it was so awesome! Have since seen it all at once a few times.
ummm Trainspotting 2

all the original cast…well except Kevin McKidd

I thought the book 'porno' was just meh (compared to Trainspotting)
but I have faith that Boyle will do this right
Funny.  I just found my autographed copy of Porno while moving.  Markie and LuLu snagged me a copy and inside, Irvine wrote "Smackie, stop reading out loud!"

It's brilliant, really.
Watched "What We Do In The Shadows" the other night, dang funny movie! Excited to hear the sequel is being worked on with the werewolves this time as opposed to the vampires. Funny mockumentary style stuff.

Ok still really no new news on this….but there is a Blade Runner 2 coming out


It?s official: Blade Runner 2 is on, and the boys are back together again. Original director Ridley Scott is producing, Harrison Ford is back as detective Deckard, and the screenplay is co-written by the original?s Hampton Fancher, based on an idea by him and Scott. Prisoners/Enemy director Denis Villeneuve is due to direct it next summer, and Ford says the script is ?the best thing he?s ever read?. Is it too good to be true?


but I hate to get my hopes up as I know they are going to screw it up



More news….

Ryan Gosling is a great choice for Blade Runner 2.
Yeah, and I got Harrison back. Because Harrison said, ?Meh,? and I said, ?No, read this.? And I think he said, ?This is the best script I?ve ever had.? We?ve been working on it for a couple of years.

You once said he?s a Replicant in the first one.
Of course he?s a bloody Replicant! He?s going to have to admit it.
just re,read the blade runner two stuff from above.  not sure, how I feel about that, still.  like, really man.
responding to old posts, but the BBC mini series called Dead Set is a pretty great zombie tv show…basically takes place on the set of Big Brother.  yes, it sounds terrible, but its really great

I just saw Rosemary's Baby for the first time. Holy awesome.
Far From the Madding Crowd
Love and Mercy

I was pretty shocked at how good I thought this movie was.

Lovely Victorian period piece.  Beautiful costumes and cinematography.
Halloween horror movie time!  I am not sure what I am going to watch but Debug, Howl, Exeter, the new Poltergeist, the first four episodes of this season of American Horror Story, and the last three episodes of the last season of Walking Dead and however many new ones from this season…
The Ninth Gate
We watched Babadook and it was good.
On Friday night, I hosted "Scary Movie Night" for a pile of 11 yr olds, all full of balls and bravery about watching the scariest movie ever even though most (including my son) had never seen a real horror movie. I wanted to scare them poopless but also remember that they're 11 so after we debated Nightmare on Elm Street, the original Alien, and Halloween, we somehow settled on the original Poltergeist.

And holy shit, that movie is MUCH scarier than I'd remembered. And man did it ever hit my nostalgia pleasure centers having been 11 yo when it was filmed. And the kids were absolutely terrified. It's the perfect 'first horror movie' for kids because while it's scary as hell, no one dies and there's no gore apart from that bathroom mirror scene.

A+ would watch again
Watched Insidious over the weekend, was surprised at how left field it goes at the end. It was creepy/weird enough and then it just goes off the deep end. Although I'm also kind of happy to see movies kind of stay dedicated to their weirdness lol.

Also caught Sicario. Damn good movie! Would definitely suggest if you're a fan of police drama/drug cartel type movies. The lead actress gets a little annoying, but Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin are great.
