Aiming to watch this one later on in the week

McConaughey plays the baddie in this one.

BMWGUYinCO · 04-18-2023, 09:01 AM

A few weeks ago, we watched what I consider to be among the WORST movies I've ever seen. Utterly pretentious and pointless, but it did have good acting: The Master
Figures the critics would rate it so high...

Now, I just saw a promo for an upcoming movie that might just rank among the worst of 2023: Quasi.

End of rant.

Even more reason to watch it

Anyone have watched the Resident Evil Animated Movies? They are my favourite and my favourite character is Leon S Kennedy. anonymous instagram viewer

True that!

This looks like it should be fun. Will probably wait till its available for rent, but I love Toni Collette in anything she's in.

I watched a few of them years ago, definitely entertaining!

I saw the Deer Hunter for the first time a few weeks ago. Could not believe how bad it was. I like slow movies, a build up etc, this was just grueling, really tough to watch, absolutely glacial.

It is long, just over 3 hours, but has a few good scenes. I really don't want to sit through a 3 hour movie. Anything over 90 min better be really good in my book.

There's a hilarious American Dad parody episode based on this movie "Escape from Pearl Baley".

Tonight's the night for Dark Tower.

Watched “Evil Dead Rise” last night. It was enjoyable. Normally not a horror fan but the gf was down to see it so we went. Wasn’t too scary.

Got that "Evil Dead" name so I'd hope it would continue on with that Sam Raimi look and feel, even though I think I read Sam is not a part of this. Loved those movies.

Esteban · 04-22-2023, 09:07 PM

^ Watched the trailer and it is very Sam Raimi like. Just read Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell are executive producers. Sam Raimi's Ghost House Pictures appears to be one of the production companies. Also read he picked the director.

Will watch when it comes to me.

Interestingly... I am a huge Horror fan. But this franchise has creeped me out more so than others. Due to the fact that I remember watching the originals as a kid and being freaked out. The last movie a few years ago was very disturbing. This looks to be as disturbing and reviews say it is and gory.
I'll consider watching it on digital release, during the day.

TXSTYLE · 04-23-2023, 05:23 PM

Watched Ant-man & Wasp Quantumania. Quite entertaining. Really enjoyed Johnathan Majors as Kang the Conquer!

Yeah, we read reviews prior to watching it and I was expecting to be creeped the fck out. Perhaps it’s being a crowded Dolby Digital theater that helped. I imagine watching it alone would be more scary. It definitely was gory.

Dude...what?

I think I saw your pix, you're like some big strong guy, what the...

Then again, I know someone who still *refuses* to watch The Exorcist.

The Evil Deads were alright, but I guess either I didn't follow it closely to understand how it worked exactly or it just seemed to 'randomly' infect ppl that's why I wasn't a huge fan of them.

I remember this guy. Does his 'name' start with a t and end with a y?
