Great minds think alike huh? :)
I've been meaning to pick up a copy of In The Mouth of Madness for awhile. I loved it when it came out so I'm keen to give it another day in court.

I watched From Dusk Till Dawn today and its as great as I remember it. I used to worship Tarantino about 6 or 7 years ago... now I have a love/hate thing going on.

i have a book - possibly by John McCarthy - that credits the Wild bunch with being the 1st splatter movie.

the 1st (american?) film to actually show people being hit with bullets - and the bullets actually doing damage..

Yeah it was all very controversial when it came out. I was just a very little kid and I can still remember the uproar. The last battle is a very bloody massacre.
Splatter movie ehh? not quite but I can see someone saying that. And yeah it's an American film about American outlaws trying to out run justice and new technology by running to Mexico.

I don't think I've struck a lot of people that hated it. George Clooney is awesome in it. I was quite suprised at the time because I'd only seen him in ER and a couple of forgetable action flicks. I've enjoyed most things he's been in since.

The Wild Bunch was pretty bloodthirsty for Westerns of the time. Tame by todays standards of course but I bet there would've been a bunch of cats that loved it for the splatter back then!

Blood Feast would've turned a few heads too I imagine :D

NICE! been wantin that for a while.

as for the Wild Bunch, think it was because it was one of the first movies to show killing in slow mo. although i guess bonnie and clyde did that first, i think... wild bunch is fucking kick ass tho, i havent seen it in years.

george clooney was the pure essence of cool in that flick ..
he was wicked..

a lot of people i've talked to that hate it - didnt like the twist from crime thriller to horror ..

(which is one of the things i loved about it.)

you want to see another movie that has a radical twist 1/2 way through - try to get your hands on a copy of Miracle Mile.

I love that too, and I, too, have found that most people don't. Most like to sit down and be comfortable with a solid genre flick, whereas this is more a double genre movie, Like Dead Alive (Braindead) or Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. These kind of multi-talented films have more potential for unique quality.

It's sad that more people can't dig that, but to each his own. I think it is a movie to be seen twice, though, whether you enjoyed the first viewing or not.

.

him and of course Tom Savini. I was totally stoked to see him play as big of a part as he did. It always feels great to point at a guy while your watching with friends and say "I have that dudes autograph!"

the kid i was sitting next to hated the twist "that just ruined the movie" he said. personally, i thought it couldnt get any better.

What else was on the soundtrack? I can't remember.


Akeelah was a solid feel-good movie.

Thanks. Never heard of the place, though.

Illinois is deprived of it, I guess.
