The Killing of America (1982) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0157894/ Just watched this controversial shockumentary for the third time. Fascinating and powerful stuff! The brains behind it is Leonard Schrader (Paul's brother) He gives a very convincing argument for gun control by presenting raw uncut footage of many violent incidents and some quite alarming stats. It points out that even since the JFK assassination crime and violence have...

I hate that they are remaking this, but revisiting the film, the "birds" look so fake in some scenes it bothers me, I used to rate all of Hitchcock films a 10 out of 10 except for this one. His use of suspense is there but the effects are really dated. I think M. Night Shaylamen watched this and wrote the premise for The Happening. www.myspace.com/deadravensrock www.youtube.com/nightofthelepus

I loved it! Completely over the top for the sake of being completely over the top. Nico rules. Cheers, Schizo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1k7U-_tJVmw

I think you already know how much I love this movie. It has its weak moments, but as a blaxploitation movie with a brain, I'd be amazed if it didn't. There's an excellent subtext to get your teeth into, and it's well worth revisiting for the minor detail and cultural references to seemingly innocuous events of the era. One of the best.

Albeit a highly flawed one. Listen to me bragging about my vagina! It's last week's PTA meeting all over again.

The more times I saw it, the more I appreciated it.

"Mama's Dirty Girls" (1974) - Enjoyably trashy 70's drive-in sleazefest starring Gloria Grahame as a shrewd con woman who along with her hottie daughters (two of 'em played by 70's exploitation starlets Candice Rialson and Sondra Currie) fleece rich marks out of their money. Trouble ensues when Grahame's latest victim turns out to be a resort owner with a few deadly secrets of his own. Plenty of...

who considered it blah? it was the only movie i wanted to rent as a kid.. my parents were not too happy. i think i might have brainwashed myself into liking bowie.. im not even sure id like him as much if i hadnt watched that movie 500 times growing up. and watching Jennifer Connelly in Requiem for a Dream was far beyond traumatic... "SARAH NOOOOOO!!!!!!"

...starting 4:30 a.m....BLOOD OF DRACULA....followed by THE SEA CREATURE...

Pretty entertaining early AIP horror/JD flick. It's very similar to other films they made like "Reform School Girls" in the 50s, with the addition of horror. Same formula as "I Was a Teenage Werewolf" and "I Was a Teenage Frankenstein" (the latter of which was directed by the same director as "Blood of Dracula"). The movie could easily have been called something like...
