Neil Marshall the director of The Descent is actually directing the upcoming Hellboy reboot, should be interesting.

lmao this is great.

I agree with you on Elysium being flawed for that exact reason you noted, but it's allegorical so it can be forgiven. I think the reason it has flaws like that is because the constraints of a film don't do Neill Blomkamp's vision much justice. He should take advantage of the series medium and really flex his creative muscles.

Edit: Have you checked out his Oats Studios short film series yet? I've only seen this first one, but it has me convinced he should try his hand at writing a series.

No, never seen any of these. Fucking cool.

lmfao I forgot the main antagonist in Turkey Shoot is literally named Thatcher.

 

[Blurry_Dreams]

one of those movies they should have left as a one and done. Guess Hollywood refuses to let that happen to anything mildly popular.

that's not going to happen anytime soon and here's why

@RadicalThrasher hey man, are you into James Bickert's exploitation films, Dear God No! and Frankenstein Created Bikers? This is his new project, a 'women in prison' film.

Not familiar with this guy or his movies. Should I be? Worth checking out?

 

[CiG]

I thought Dear God No! kicked ass, a great bikersploitation revival, so at the very least I'd recommend checking that one out. It's sleazy fun.

Damn, found out a few days that Deadbeat at Dawn is getting a rerelease.

 

[CiG]

Nice! I'll definitely swoop in on that shit.

 

[Oblivious Maximus]

That upcoming Deadbeat release is stacked: http://www.diabolikdvd.com/product/deadbeat-at-dawn-arrow-us-blu-ray/

RE the supposedly upcoming Lord of the Flies remake/gender flip.

Is it just me or is The Descent basically already that? lol.

Watching:

 

[rms]

dont think the descent was lord of the flies at all, but been awhile since i read it

 

[CiG]

Fair enough, I'm probably oversimplifying Lord of the Flies' themes.

Watching one of my favourites from 1988:

 

[no country for old wainds]

first reformed looks immense, very hyped for that one

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Just got back from You Were Never Really Here, it was amazing. You'd love it @CiG. I can already tell which frame from that movie you're gonna use as your 2998309491th avatar.

Also saw Hereditary afterwards because the world is hot and the theater was cool. Thoughts for real:

mubi is currently $1 for 3 months btw

 

[CiG]

Finally getting around to seeing this. So many people have praised it to me, Merantau was pretty cool so if this is at least as good as that I'll be satisfied.
