"Black Dynamite"

Hysterically funny spoof of the black action movies of the '70's. This film hits the nail on the head perfectly. The funniest film I've seen in years.

You're meant to nitpick and analyze the plot and thematic devices used in the film about as much as you should for a porno. Oddly enough all the films in question involve an inordinate amount of flying semen...

i 'get' the feast films.

i understand perfectly that the sole point of these films were to lampoon the genre and push the envelope of bad taste as far as possible.

in the fisrt film it succeeded. it felt fresh and fun.
the second film felt like it was made by giggling school boys trying to offend their grandparents.

i get what they were doing - but an endless string of gross out set pieces designed to offend (and aimed at a demographic that have already seen it all) collapsed on itself, taking me out of the movie completely.

feast 2 was the iceage 2 of horror films.

more isnt always better.

Blood Games

Basically "A League of Their Own" meets "I Spit On Your Grave."

In the deep South an all female baseball team wins a game against a bunch of good ol' boys. Don't ask. Just accept it. Of course they can't be allowed to live for embarressing them like that...

Silly and stupid as you'd expect. Enjoyable for those that appreciate such things.

Lunacy (2005). This Czech flick by Jan Svankmajer has it all: it's dark, blasphemous, disturbing, funny, and philosophic. This is Jan's notion of a horror film, but it is much more than just that. Blending elements of Poe and Sade, Jan uses them to put together a wonderful study of the treatment of insanity and then uses it to make a statement about society itself. His use of stop motion animation here brilliantly reveals the insanity that comes seeping out of the woodwork after each ludicrous scene. The acting was great, though some may find the "looking into the camera" scenes a little weird. With great direction, wonderful camera work, wild animation (tongues crawling in and out of beer glasses, sans owners), disturbing imagery (loved the view from outside of the horse buggy), like i said, this one has it all. Ashe.
