What is The Last Movie You Watched?

In one of these experiments of the 70s, one person in a group was subjected to troubling reactions: at the presentation of a colour, red for instance, all the participants would answer “green”. After very few of these presentations, the sole subject of the experiment would answer exactly as the rest of the group against his own best judgement. Some of these subjects went so far as questioning their own sanity.
Anyone who knows deep depression understands how one can slip in such states in which everything seems opposed to what you think and what you feel you are and, strangely, the same happened to many great creators and thinkers in history. The topic of this movie, “La Moustache” (“The Mustache” -2005), by French director Emmanuel Carrère, from his own novel, revolves around such experiences. Seemingly silly, almost surrealistic. Very strange. And much underrated, in my opinion.

Halloween

I saw that film Moustache a few years ago and completely forgot about it. it was a strange film.

Some Mario Bava for Halloween.

Rare Exports:A Christmas Tale...

Terrific little Finnish film with original storytelling on an amazing backdrop (to me anyway....this is how I travel).

If you liked "Trollhunter", you'll probably like this - less for effects than storytelling.

Thanks Dan. Did you know Bay Of Blood(AKA Twitch Of The Death Nerve) was Friday The 13th before Friday The 13th? Check the similarities of the death scenes.

Also, Lisa & The Devil was redone, re-edited, with some new scenes shot for the American market to capitalize on the success of The Exorcist. It was renamed House Of Exorcism. Saw it as a kid at the Picwood Theater. Telly Savalas is the ultimate badass.

Dino, you never cease to amaze me!
I'll have to pay attention to all of that, it's just too delightful! Thanks!

just saw paranormal activity 4.

save your money...don't see it.

The Bourne Legacy.
Fairly pointless. :shrug

Nothing terrible here. Just a bad start, characters being ridiculously condescending and obnoxious, like in so many Hollywood movies. Then, after about 50 minutes to an hour of babbling, we get into it, how dirty and rough the political game really is. Well, the overall feeling is, to quote Shakespeare, “All Ado About Nothing”, there was no need to make so much efforts in telling us what we already know… “The Ides of March” (2011), partly written, produced and directed by George Clooney, with a pretty remarkable cast: Ryan Goslin, Paul Giamatti, Philip Seymour-Hoffman, Clooney himself, Marisa Tomei, etc. Nothing at all to evoke the assassination of Cesar…

Even Much Ado About Nothing seems to be an overworked slogan for this thin, empty film in which Ryan Gosling mumbles his way to the credits without once showing an interest in his work. As usual.

Mission Impossible - Ghost Protocol.
It cracked along at a fair pace, there was a bit of humour (Simon Pegg influence?), entertaining.

I watched the trilogy of films that Lucas Belvaux made in 2002, 'One, Two, Three' each of which has its own title (On the Run, An Amazing Couple, Apres la Vie). The three films are three different perspectives of events that take place over a few days in Grenoble, the first concenrs a convicted terrorist who escapes from gaol; the second a light comedy about a woman who thinks her hypchondriac husband is having an affair; and the third about a Police detective whose wife is a morphine addict. All the characters are involved in each other's films, but there is not much depth or artisty in this film-making, its the kind of thing that would be made these days for BBC-1 or 2 and not much above tv drama, although Dominique Blanc as the drug addict is superb. I never believed in the terrorist, and Ornella Muti, though ravishingly beautiful still, is not going to win any acting awards. I think this box set will off to the charity shop soon along with The Ides of March...unless I can get the entertainment shop to buy them..

Last movie I watched was Goon, which I liked more than I thought I would!

Triangle (2009)

Warriors of the Rainbow: Seediq Bale......runs a bit long (I understand the original was twice as long)..but very,very good.

I just watched The Christine Jorgensen Story from 1970. She was the most famost post op transexual of her time. The movie is incredibly campy and many times unintentionally funny, but I was also touched by her story.

Pretty decent prequel. Worth seeing if you're interested. I promise Denzel Washington is not in it. Watched real close in case they tried to sneak him in as an extra. All clear.

Jess Franco's best(and maybe only good) film. Christopher Lee is the real Prince Of Darkness. He'll be 150 years old and still have 4 projects on IMDb in-production at once.

Another great Spanish Production. Classic Christopher Lee/Peter Cushing. Telly Savalas plays an over-the-top Cossack. A mad monk almost steals it.

Curious name if you think about it -and I can therefore understand why he abbreviated it to Telly, but I can't imagine why his parents chose the name Television- does anyone know?

Telly's short for Aristotelis.

I enjoy that his name is Telly. Whenever you guys talk about television I can't resist putting Mr Savalas' picture up. Over the last around 5 years I've really appreciated his work learning he's much more than just Kojak. He plays a Mafia Boss in Violent City w/Charles Bronson.

Here's something special for you.:party:

Nice! Very young Denzell Washington! What about this one: an older Cagney vs a younger Bogart…

I'm actually very limited on my knowledge of film. I need to get more into Bogart and Cagney. Saw A Man Of A Thousand Faces because of my admiration of Lon Chaney Sr.

Chaney was originally supposed to be in Tod Browning's Dracula. Lugosi really nailed it but Chaney would've been bone chilling.

London After Midnight (1927) aka The Hypnotist is a silent mystery film with horror overtones produced and distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The film stars Lon Chaney, Marceline Day, Conrad Nagel, Henry B. Walthall, and Polly Moran and was directed by Tod Browning. It is also a lost film, quite possibly the most famous and eagerly sought of all lost films. The last known copy was destroyed in a fire in an MGM film vault in 1967. It is hoped that eventually a print of this film may be discovered in a foreign archive or a private collection.

I am a massive fan of Hammer Films. Low budget but such a nice look with use of color. The cleavage helped too. I even put up with Amicus who released a few good anthologies blatantly copying Hammer's style, look, and with Lee/Cushing too.

The 1970's used to have great Made For TV Horror. Let's Scare Jessica To Death, The Legend Of Hell House, The Devil's Rain, and so many others.

Could never watch that that all the way through, it's got Beryl Reid in it!

the man with the iron fists

ok.....well, if you are a kid and don't care if a complex story actually had substance, then this movie is for you. it is a great action movie, but really, the fight scenes are the only good parts. the filler is kinda crap. i don't regret seeing it, but i could have spent 2 hrs more sleeping and be as satisfied.
