Brian DePalma
 
Anyone dig Big Bri as much as I do? The dude is a visual genius, even when he's working outside the genre. But let's just talk about his horror efforts...Dressed to Kill, Carrie, Sisters, Obsession, Blow Out, The Fury, Body Double (my favorite), Raising Cain...

And yes, Avenger..."Big Bri" IS a Breakfast Club reference. Smoke up, JohnnY!

I remember that Indian guy in Body Double giving me the creeps. DePalma is pretty cool. My favorite of his is probably...The Untouchables. The whole stairwell shootout was PERFECT. I was on the edge of my seat.

Shit, that one somehow slipped my mind. Always associate that one with Oliver Stone b/c he wrote it.

Forgot about Carlito's Way too. Damn me. That's one of my favorite movies of all time. Oh well, we all have brain farts.

Yeah I didn't relize he did Raising Cain either I haven't seen that in a while but I would like too. Kinda of reminds me of "Dead Ringers" only it was just in his mind in Cain.

Phantom of the Paradise is my fave by him.

I havent seen many of his horror movies, except for Carrie and a few others, this isnt a horror movie, but i think that Scarface is his best, without a doubt. Its one of my most favorite movies of all time. Im big on mobster movies.

YEH! I love this movie its totally kickass it fucking cracks me up. That guy getting his face put in the record press made me laugh he was having the king of all bad days. The movie is a cool reference to how fucked up the corporatized music industry was in the 70s and still is today.
