I love Carnival Magic. I didn't realize until like halfway thru that that one guy the girl was hanging around wasn't her father--but her love interest

Inframan is good enough to watch on its own. It's an amazing film. As for a movie from within the past five years...Neil Breen's Fateful Findings was filmed in 2013.

Bicyclops posted:Yeah, what the hell is up with that? I feel like Glow's season 2 airdate wasn't announced until like two weeks beforehand. I'd say it was in response to that Arrested Development bad publicity fiasco, but the same thing happened with AD and Kimmy Schmidt. On the one hand, it's not like they need to hype it up for advertisers. No commercials, no need to get asses in couches for the premiere. On the other hand, it's a real bummer to not know when something is coming back!

Icebreaker makes no sense but it does have Sean Astin flailing around in the snow and Bruce Campbell being VERY EVIL.

muscles like this! posted:Avalanche is great for just how mean it is to the mother. She's crushed in the avalanche, dies, is revived and then the goddamn ambulance drives off a bridge when taking her to the hospital. Like four people in this movie die or are grievously injured just by reckless driving. It's absolutely one of my favorites. Also, I do hope they eventually manage to get Inframan. It's a truly amazing movie. He's got amazing thunderball fists! He's the man beyond bionics!

Dungeon Ecology posted:recently rewatched carnival magic on a whim and man does that movie have a creepy rapey vibe to it. plus that really sucky racist joke about the car chase. I wasn't paying too much attention when I was watching Carnival magic, and I honestly thought the girl's love interest in that movie was supposed to be her dad, the age gap was so extreme

World Famous W posted:How many films can you remember seeing before watching the riffed version? A gas station when I was a child had a vhs rental section and had Merlin's Shop for some reason. I watched that any times before ever seeing the episode. Reptilicus and oddly enough Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. It's why I like the Reptilicus episode even if the pacing is flawed; I remember watching it as a kid on TV. My mom got a copy of Santa Claus Conquers the Martians for my dad along with a still from the movie off ebay (The part where Santa is laughing at the food pills) based on the title alone so we watched it on Christmas one year.

Davros1 posted:It's the first CAVE DWELLERS film, right? Yes, I believe so. Also, I must emphasize, I am not exaggerating: The hero's call to action is his sister, whom he has always wanted to gently caress, getting kidnapped. He finds out the day before she is nabbed that he was adopted so he gets his parents' blessing to get together. It is a wild flick.

Evil Mastermind posted:I wish I could remember where I saw the interview, but I remember Tony Cardoza saying something along the lines of "Coleman Francis made movies like other people cut themselves." I think this is why I like the Coleman Francis Trilogy; it's three attempts to make this weird, misanthropic manifesto. I watch these, thinking that there must have been some ephemeral "better" version in his head that was still obviously incoherent and menaced by guntoting vigilantes in aircraft.

Failson posted:Directed by Red Letter Media favorite - Don Dohler. He makes the same movie every few years. Some day, he will get it right. Makes you wonder what we would have gotten if Coleman Francis had the same approach and didn't stop after three movies. What sort of depraved, depressing films were we, as a people, robbed of? How many more scenes of vigilantes firing on people and monsters from small aircraft could we have had?

HannibalBarca posted:I hope so. Not because it's necessarily a great episode (it's fine) but, even before MST3K, Reptilicus has a special resonance for me as the first movie that I ever stayed up past by bedtime to watch on 90s cable. I saw Reptilicus as a kid too--on TCM or something, so I've got a soft spot for it too even if it's definitely one of the weaker riffs in the revival.

Its like ET getting in the spaceship, then flying back when he's in school to say "elliot, your dad is on mars, it needs some kind of intervention of an ugly candy shilling alien. Go steal a rocket, I'll meet you there in a month, its kickin off." I mean was that even Bigfoot or like...Bigfoot's ghost?

Golden Bee posted:Carnival magic is so sleazy and weird. It’s about a publicist versus an evil lion tamer who gets his rear end kicked by a lion. First time I watched it, I wasn't paying enough attention and I thought the girl's love interest was her father. On the second watch--the romance was just as creepy! She still seems underage and the PR guy still seems like he's much older. I Am Fowl fucked around with this message at 01:34 on Apr 15, 2019 |

Moon Zero Two is tragically close to being a good movie. A little less dead air and it'd be solid. As it stands it's colorful and it's got some fun ideas and story and some wonderfully silly poo poo.

Failson posted:Another season 1 defender, checking in! So, I've been trying to gradually go through the entirety of MST3K. I even have an excel spreadsheet so I know what I've seen and I can take notes if there's something I do not want to see again--like if an episode has a movie where they clearly just had two animals maul each other on screen (King Dinosaur, I think, has an iguana and a small crocodile fight and it's horrible. The footage was also used as b-roll in Robot Monster). Sometimes it's just a heads up so I can skip past a bad thing or maybe just not rewatch altogether. My note for Project Moonbase is simply "I hate this movie so much."

You know what? The first like twenty minutes of the Crawling Hand is actually a pretty compelling and creepy cosmic horror story. You start in media res with them already having lost contact with the space capsule and they've got the unsettling, machine-like countdown of remaining oxygen going in the background as they try and figure out what the gently caress is going on and then long after the astronaut should be dead, he contacts them screaming "KILL ME" and the scientist are like "well...I think we're burning that tape..." A nice, weird episode of TV that had the tragic misfortune to be stretched into a full length feature film. Cue Rod Serling: "Look, space is scary and sometimes weird poo poo happens for no apparent reason. The universe is cold and indifferent to you. Have fun sleeping tonight."

TL posted:Just got in from the live show, we saw No Retreat, No Surrender, and it was an absolute hoot. If you have the chance, I strongly recommend it. Me too, and Circus of Horror, lot of fun. Circus of Horror is one of those peculiar bad movies where you're not sure who the main characters were supposed to be even when it's over. Seemed like the bits were a little better in the second show, since they were warmed up.
