finished watching Iron Fists and Kung Fu Kicks πππππ
Excellent doc about Hong Kong martial arts movies development and global influence on movies, music etc.
Watched for #KungFuSat #WatchParty on Mastodon
finished watching Spaceballs πππππ
A level or three below Brooks' other parodies like Blazing Saddles, but still with some funny moments.
(Re)watched in #Comedon #WatchParty on Mastodon
finished watching Remember the Titans πππππ
I'm not really into American football, but this film built to an emotional, intense finale.
Watched in #FridayThrillerClub #WatchParty on Mastodon
finished watching Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe πππππ
Not quite as much fun as the first movie but still so many laugh out loud moments :D
Watched in #SundayFunnies #WatchParty on Mastodon.
finished watching The Angry Red Planet πππππ
A movie that, like a great artist, steals from others (The Blob, Godzilla, Forbidden Planet etc). But great art, it ain't.

started watching Thrilling Bloody Sword πππππ
Truly insane, has to be seen to be believed! (And steals all the best music of the era!)
Watched in #MonsterMiru #WatchParty after Monsterdon's showing of Fright Night (1985), on Mastodon.
finished watching The Frighteners πππππ
Excellent horror-comedy-action film from Peter Jackson, one of my all-time faves!
Rewatched in #SundayFunnies #WatchParty on Mastodon.
started watching Boiler Room πππππ
Not bad, but not quite as good as the films it name-checks, like Wall Street and Glengarry Glenn Ross.

finished watching Alligator 2: The Mutation πππππ
Sequel quite dull & slow in comparison to the first film
Watched in #MonsterMiru #WatchParty after #Monsterdon on Mastodon
finished watching Tomb Invader πππππ
Mockbuster from The Asylum bad enough to be enjoyable in the #MondayActionMovie #WatchParty on Mastodon
finished watching Come and See πππππ
Wrenching tale of a boy during the Nazi invasion of the USSR and the horrors he witnesses. Based on tales of survivors brought to the screen by director Elem Klimov after a years-long battle with Soviet censors in his last film, and especially scary now that fascism is on the rise again.

Watched in the 90s, rewatched in #SundayFunnies #WatchParty on Mastodon
finished watching Cinema of Vengeance πππππ
Fascinating (for us fans) documentary on the history & development of Hong Kong martial arts & action films, featuring interviews with the people who make the magic happen. And lots of great clips from movies! (Which I have put into a collection here: https://eggplant.place/collection/69ChUBekkGbNHa0VeIGmSz
I'm sure watched this on VHS in the 90s. Rewatched in #KungFuSat #WatchParty on Mastodon.
finished watching The X from Outer Space πππππ
Space gorditas, space spores, space bossa nova: this movie's got it all!

finished watching The War of the Roses πππππ
Excellent dark comedy that starts off rom-com but turns into rom-hell
Watched in #SundayFunnies #WatchParty on Mastodon.
finished watching Dance of Death πππππ
Angela Mao plays a beggar boy (yes) who gets a drunken master & doped master to teach her their techniques so she can get revenge on an evil kung fu school.
With Jackie Chan on action choreography, we get plenty of fun among all the fighting, and Angela is a delight!

finished watching Hook, Line and Sinker πππππ
Some screwball moments in one of the earliest full talkies, but I suspect the missing live / recorded musical score would have helped fill the many moments of dead air.

Atmospheric, thoughtful, emotions with few words. And beautiful locations.

Not a lot of war, ninjas or monsters. A lot of tone shifts & grating comedy music.
