Incredible Melting Man looks a bit like Monster A Go-Go (one of the worst movies ever featured on MST3K) in terms of aimlessness.

A little research shows that Melting Man was originally conceived and shot as a parody, but then got retooled to ply it straight in the middle of production. Just like Solo!

I re-watched Manhunter (1986) today and I am convinced now it is my favourite Michael Mann film, which surprised me because I loving love Heat. It seems like an art movie with some just awesome shots, and a surprising number of dolly-in shots and pans etc. It's just so loving good and looks incredible. The editing is wild too with the weird abrupt cuts in the middle of a shootout makes it seem even more chaotic. The cast is just perfect, especially Noonan. Love the soundtrack too, with Prime Movers, Shriekback and of course Iron Butterfly. Augh I just had to gush about it a bit.

Manhunter is a perfect film that's been remade twice and both versions completely suck.

^^^ gently caress yes, Noonan is so goddamn incredible in that both terrifying and also just so devastated all while completely misunderstanding the situation due to his own hang ups. A GLISTENING HODOR posted:Manhunter is a perfect film that's been remade twice and both versions completely suck. It really is, and it's amazing how well it has aged. It has some dated outfits of course but the movie looks loving incredible. Dante Spinotti as DP definitely helps. Miami Vice is probably the Mann film that comes closest in feel with whole "dream" feeling of it. It's really underrated.

TIL the reason why the final shootout was so weird: (writeup on why manhunter rules from 2011 here)quote:Manhunter was shot almost entirely in chronological sequence, and by the time the final scenes were due to be filmed, much of the crew, exhausted and disgruntled, had packed up and gone home. This perhaps explains why, after a careful build-up, Manhunter’s climactic shoot-out feels rushed and perfunctory. It's true it does feel rushed but it still works imo. It beats the ending of silence of the lambs in the basement with NVG by a loving mile!

Gemstones ending was pretty predictable but pretty good season Having Eric Andre devoured by wolves as an ending shot was unexpected, though

It's been so long since I was disappointed by it, but iirc Hannibal season 3 starts with the events of Hannibal (Lecter in Italy at the Capponi library) where he's caught by Verger and the pig farm yadda yadda, then it goes into Red Dragon/Manhunter with Lecter in jail guiding Will to catch Dollarhyde, then Will just replaces Clarice and is the protagonist of Silence of the Lambs but then Dollarhyde shows back up and kills Lecter¿??? It's so dumb and bad. If you haven't watched Hannibal, stop at the season 2 finale which is a badass high note and where the show should have ended because then you can just watch Manhunter, Silence, and Hannibal if you need the rest of the story instead of some dog poo poo rushed half-assed remakes.

i liked the part where hannibal invited lawrence fishburne to a dinner party and he tested the meat to confirm his suspicious but it came up as pork so he was like "oh i guess he's not a cannibal then". absolutely riveting writing

Oh, so you like Lindsay's intelligent deep dives into theater and film presented with professional editing and clips but don't care for Jenny prattling on vlogging style about hotels and direct to video children's cartoons while just dead-eyed staring into a camera You loving sexist piece of poo poo. I hope you get drafted into the cock and ball torture wars.

watching The The 5cream (2022) kind of... obvious, so far Scream 1 opened in a house Scream 2 opened in a movie theater every other movie has opened in an homage to Scream 1 in 1996 we did cellphones in 2011 we did livestreaming it's 2022, so, smart houses. wouldn't it be SCARY if like dude we are SO passed the point of this franchise scaring anyone the crazy violent stalker character reminded me of the racist redneck character from Final Destination 4 who I don't think even got a name before he died while literally burning a cross on a black character's lawn just like "here's a bad man, oh he's dead. well, that killed 8 minutes" but I do appreciate that it's jerking me off for being a Scream fan (Stab references, dialogue callbacks ("you don't have to be careful with me, I'm not gonna break"), character named Wes and he's the son of Hicks from 4) and it was kind of an amusing double bluff to have Red Right Hand (callback!!!!) playing and turn off when the car turns off, and then just come back non-diegetically when stab paused the video because gah! skeet ulrich! then I realized her name is sam.  so she's he's long lost sister or something. coole: - daughter. *crumples into dust and blows away* - that hospital confession scene could have been really maudlin and laughable as written, but they did ok. not great, but ok - David Arquette's character looking like poo poo and living alone in a hole after Courtney Cox's character left him between this movie and the last one: loving ouch - Neve Campbell still looks amazing - I am MARKING THE gently caress. OUT. at giving Dewey back the Broken Arrow theme - amazed they dug up Heather Matarazzo to reprise her role. I guess she's kept busy, but who even remembers that character besides me? this is like the dream of every fanfic - lol "the Knives Out guy" directed an extremely polarizing eighth entry in the Stab franchise. kill me - ok acknowledging that it's fanfic doesn't make it any less fanficcy. - doop doop doo! ah, here I am in my bathroom with the three giant unfrosted windows facing the street. time to get fully nude without closing the curtains _________\|  - jesus christ how many times can you do that close/open door fakeout - the kills in this movie are pretty undercooked tbh. ghostface basically just pops out and stabs them - gale!  - lol bf character getting his opinions on the Stab movies from watching youtube people bitch about them instead of watching the movies 👀 - what is with horror movies and inexplicably empty hospitals? in Scream 4 I thought it was kind of a self-conscious homage to the protracted hospital endings in like Black Christmas 2006 and Halloween 2, but this one seems to be playing it straight. what hospital on earth has this few people in it? - ghostface cut the power in the hospital?  HOW IN THE gently caress- she was on her cellphone in the elevator  - ok I actually didn't see that coming. hm - aaand there's Sid. is this a deliberate reference to sequel trilogy's inexplicable resistance toward having a scene where the main trio are reunited? this movie became a Star Wars parody so gradually I didn't even notice - I miss Hayden Panetierre. did she die in the last one? - holy poo poo they're leaving lol that rules. if they actually leave that's genuinely interesting and I'm excited to see what they do with it. at this point (~1 hour and 10 minutes in) this movie has an intriguing problem that I've only seen elsewhere in the Platinum Dunes remake of Friday the 13th- there's too many final girls - of course there's a party at amber's house - I thinkthe actress that plays amber looks like miranda cosgrove but I have goon face recognizer disease - male twin's refusal to go have sex and pretty much everything he said was pretty funny - that was clearly a scene from Stab 1, Randy didn't die until Scream 2, so it's not a movie about your uncle getting stabbed, male twin   - hooray for lesbians - it's been 4 1/2 movies, but we finally saw somebody's boyfriend who's big and plays football kick the poo poo out of ghostface - oh holy poo poo he:s even wearing the same letterman jacket steve was. man the people that made this were a bunch of nerds - see, bf character, if you had actually WATCHED the stab movies you'd knowing clearing the party out is the last thing you want to do. the party in the first movie clearing out to go see principal fonzie's corpse is what set up the entire ending set piece  - I don't think stu's house had a basement >:? at least not that we saw - okay this gag where she's watching the scene where randy is watching halloween and telling him to look behind him while he tells jamie lee curtis to look behind her seems clever but it's really not, because: a) there was already a second layer to that scene in the original. gale's cameraman was watching from outside on a delay, and ghostface was already on his way to him, so we're telling the cameraman to look out while he's watching randy and telling him to look out while he's watching jamie lee curtis and telling her to look out. it's the exact same gag. except b) the original had the additional joke of randy being played by an actor who's also named jamie. so while he's saying "jamie look out" we're saying that to him. this doesn't have that because the actor in Stab wouldn't be jamie kennedy, and neither the actress nor the character in this case is named jamie or randy so it's actually a level less meta than the original :/ :\ :/ :\ - oh, amber's the killer.  -- that reveal made me think of the end of the Community episode about conspiracies - "there are always two killers." there was only one killer in the third one, bf character, GOD, you're so STUPID. - oh, he... oh. - wait, does this make sense? I don't think this makes sense. -  - oh wow, homage to how ghostface wiped the blade off in the first movie haha - 'eyyyy just when I thought they weren't gonna do the "actor credits next to clips from the movie" thing - well, I spent pretty much this entire post bitching and nitpicking, but that movie was alright not sure about the theming... I'm more or less on the movie's side w/r/t toxic fandom but everything about that in the killers' mouths felt really on the nose, and, "your dad was a serial killer and that's your super power" certainly was a choice but it was enjoyable. Jack Quaid was great. really channelled that unhinged, slightly-questionable-acting-choices-that-totally-work energy that Matthew Lillard and Laurie Metcalf and Liev Schreiber had that the third fourth ones were kinda lacking. and Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barrera are fine young actors who brought a charming pathos to their roles I award it the highest praise I can bestow: if I had paid for it instead of doing a google search for scream 2022 free online that would have been just fine Cubone fucked around with this message at 10:46 on Feb 28, 2022 |

I can’t remember Hannibal S3 at all but I assume I watched it because I loved that show. It’s like if Hannibal surgically excised that part of my brain and then sauteed it up with some garlic butter. Delicious.
