Mission Statement: to do very little, for very few, for not very long. Disappointing the easily pleased since 1819. Not as good as it used to be from Day One. History is Bunk - PT Barnum. Artificially Intelligent before it was fashionable. Fat camp for the mind! Nothing lasts, but nothing is lost. The Shock of the Old! Often bettered, never imitated.
I was going to post this as an April Fool's gag, but didn't think of it until just now. It's showing at th' Foamerama®, and all youse bums gots to do is feel around for the link with your crabby old fingers!
If you think you've seen this, you probably haven't.
Cult movies you'd like to see screened at th' Foamerama©?
ReplyDeleteI approached this post with a deep tread in my heart, for this moving picture really drove me around the bend. I see the movie was made by Quentin Duplex, and dare I say it's that asphalt that I have trouble 'drifting' off to sleep at night.

"Skiddo" and "I Love You Alice B. Toklas" are both silly period pieces. But it was a nice period, and silly seems to be helping me a bit at coping...

Acting was a little flat.
ReplyDeleteRim jobs all round.
DeleteOliver Stone was originally to direct, but they had to Firestone when his inflated ego couldn't nail it.

He lost his grip.
DeletePlan 9 is pretty great....
ReplyDelete"Dealing With The Dead" is a swell album.
DeleteWell played, per usual, and not even a Mabanckou reference, which I woulda guessed, but confess, as I am sure you knew, I was referencing the bad/great/good~bad, uhm, "film" "Plan 9 from Outer Space."
DeleteI had to look up Mabanckou, but yes, I was referring to the Rhode Island rockers in full knowledge ectect.
DeleteFor once I'm ahead of this cliquey in-joke-strewn game, having found the DVD in a local charity shop not long back. Yes, a very peculiar item but quite good fun IIRC. Less discomfiting than Cronenberg's fine 'Naked Lunch', for example.
ReplyDelete'Death Ship' (1980) with George Kennedy is the most memorably unintentionally silly thing I've seen in recent years. Always wanted to see 'Ratfink A Booboo' (1966?)

DeleteThanks for shaming me with the ease of accessing something I supposedly care about so much I never thought to try looking for it.
DeleteThat's peak you, isn't it?
Delete"Dr Phibes rises again", great barroque scenery, weird humor and music.
ReplyDelete"Scream Blacula Sream" is another favourite

Repo Man is a film I need to see again.
ReplyDeleteDuel from 1971 with Dennis Weaver which i think Spielberg directed and The Hitcher from 1986 with C. Thomas Howell and Rutger Hauer ....Rutger was always good even in bad movies
ReplyDeleteand how about Aguirre, the Wrath of God starring Klaus Kinski ??? that's it for me today it's nap time
DeleteGood call, Fitzcarraldo (and the making of) and Nosferatu too maybe. I love Werner Herzog films.
