It reminded me of South Park or a fairly polished Troma movie. Funny although the story was a little shapeless. The nightmare sequence was a direct Phantasm homage, always appreciated. N64 is not 80s retro and that gave me a minor spergout. Overall, did not disappoint.
Sounds like a track from CAM library music album #182 - it also has a track by Frizzi that sounds a bit like a Zombi2 outtake or demo.
I had to see Good Boy after reading this summary, and it was a pretty enjoyable watch, good acting, with a surprising twist halfway through and quite a finale/conclusion. The second half really has a lot of sense of dread though the end went a bit over the top. For what seems like a very low budget movie my only technical grievance is the cinematography is a bit crap. Sure the backstory could be fleshed out more but that's not really necessary, you can tell what these people were trying to accomplish.I never got around to Old Dark House before because it's always tagged "comedy", which isn't exactly wrong, but it's not goofy or farcical and plays the darker parts straight. I really enjoyed it.
I hate to give too much away about Good Boy, but I'll briefly summarize the first half or so:
Our female hero goes out on a Tinder date with Chad, is smitten, goes home with him... only to discover the next morning that Frank the Fursuit Dog is living with him. Note that Frank is full nonverbal dog-LARP-mode all the time, not a gay furry fuckslave. She nopes out and heads home with the intention of never seeing him again.
Afterwards, she shows her friend pictures of Chad, who recognizes him as a famous millionaire heir, and assures her that this guy is so far out of her league that she's crazy not to stick with him. After watching some internet videos explaining the concept of puppy play and how not-insane it is, she decides to give Chad another chance.
Shortly thereafter, Chad has a fun idea: why not have a little weekend getaway in an isolated cabin in the woods? And also they kick their smart phone addictions for the weekend? That is, she gives him her phone and he hides it so she has no way of contacting the outside world.
From that point on, it kind of writes itself.
Dark movie despite having very little explicit content, not very long (~80 minutes I think), decidedly un-woke. Enthusiasticfrom me.
Is the stand-alone Dumplings worth a watch if I have already Three Extremes?
I'd say it is.
The sounds when she ate, like masticating a baby bird. Appalling.
My buddies keep recommending House ofUsher, but there’s three gay couples and a troon. Seems the troon dies horrifically, but I can’t bring myself to look at it,
They all die horrifically. Pretty much every episode goes like this:
Wait, that movie is out already? I know MGM delayed it from a September 2022 release, but I didn't know it's already released.
And Julian Sands. Whose corpse turned up back in June, so he's been upgraded from "almost certainly dead" to "officially dead". He had gone missing back in January while hiking on Mount Baldy.
That was so tragic. I loved him in Warlock.
Did you like Boxing Helena? That’s where I first came across him. He was almost always very well cast.
