The last movie I saw was some chick flick on Lifetime called "Selling Innocence." It was about some girl who started "modeling" for this online agency and she thought this guy was for real and was going to make her famous. But he just made her pose in sexy poses and clothes and stuff and pretty much almost made her strip online to get her photos taken down off of the site. Then some rapist guy stalked her and almost killed her. It was actually a very frightening movie because this stuff really happens in the world.

Last film I watched was the extended cut of King Kong with my friend when he stayed over a few days ago. Pretty good.

Hostel. I absulutely hate that movie. I was only watching it because my mum didn't believe me when I told her it was shit. Well, it is. Eveyone was saying it was such a scary, gory, disturbing movie, and that people actually had to leave the theautre because of the gore, but all the movie consists of is this: 40 to 50 minutes of people either getting high, drinking, being naked, or fucking. A secene of a guy getting a drill soved in his body, which you don't even get to see, then he gets his feet half cut off, then he gets his head cut off. Whoop dee fucking doo. Then the Olie guy just disappers. The Californian guy gets his fingers cut off, saves the asian girl, asian girl kills herself, guy kills Non-Doctor-Shakey-Hands. MOVIES OVER!

I Dunno about anyone else, but this movie had no real if you ask me. Ah well, I'm a hard ass when it comes to gore movies.

Last film I watched was The Illusionist. Not too bad. With Edward Norton. Reminded me a lot of The Prestige with the ever graceful David Bowie.

I love the illumination and Count Orlok is just amazing.

The God Who Wasn't There by... somebody or other.

The last fictional film I saw was probably Donnie Darko; I love that film .

EDIT: Tirannial (sorry if I spelt it wrong) have you ever seen Cannibal Holocaust? Banned in lots of countries, including the UK. It used to be on YouTube but I think they took it off. Anyway; the director had to go to court with the actors to prove that he hadn't killed them because the gore looked so real. They'd actually used animal guts. That movie almost made me puke.

The glorious thing about the US, the government can't do that.
I personally haven't seen it but there is movie out there I don't know the name, but I think it's a fusing of Nine Inch Nails music videos with scenes of torture. Very artistic, and beautifully done according to those who have seen it. They have warned that you won't be able to eat meat, or quite possibly anything for a couple of days. One girl couldn't eat for five days, one guy would get queasy at the sight of meat.


*grin* Legally Blonde, and Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde
In my defense, they are cute, and the moral is that a woman be smart, and gorgeous.

I totally agree with everything you just said. I watched Hostel after my sister told me how 'amazing' and 'gruesome' it was. Meh. I was bored. I don't know much about horror movies, but I like the deaths in them to be a little more creative.

I watched Little Miss Sunshine yesterday. I want a little sister like Olive. But those 7 year old beauty queens were scarier than any horror movie.

Dr. Strangelove

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb


Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb is a 1964 film directed by Stanley Kubrick. Loosely based upon the Cold War thriller novel Red Alert (also known as Two Hours to Doom) by Peter George, the source material was refashioned as a black comedy by screenwriter Terry Southern. Dr. Strangelove satirizes the fragile nature of the Cold War conflict and the doctrine of mutual assured destruction. The film opens at the fictional Burpelson Air Force Base, where the insane General Jack D. Ripper has just ordered a first strike nuclear attack on the Soviet Union, and proceeds to follow the President of the United States, his advisors, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and a Royal Air Force (RAF) officer as they try to recall Ripper's bombers in order to prevent a nuclear apocalypse.

I finally got around to watching The Descent. Pretty decent. At least it was far, far better than The Cave.

Yay! Someone agrees with me. Even though all of my friends and my mum think it's awful, still, someone agrees with me!

I'm watching Save The Last Dance 2.

I have an addiction to dance movies... But this is terrible.

Watched "Mein Führer" yesterday.
It's supposed to be a striking humorous parody of Adolf Hitler and it is just amazingly boring.
It is not even funny by being politically incorrect !!!
Well i am going to watch the great Dictator by Charlie Chaplin these days.

I pretty much liked the second one though i preferred the first.
Still have to see number 3 and 4 but i was told they are not worth the money.
So it surprises me you like the third.
Have to get it XD

I just watched "Swept in from the Sea", or at least part of it. I thought it was pretty good, although I only saw the end of the middle to the ending.

The Passion of the Christ

Filthy, rotten, twisted, Christian propaganda.

Otherwise quite good.

Cool She'll possess you. Then destroy you. She's death on wheels. She's...

Christine (1983, Directed by John Carpenter)



Arnie Cunningham is a typical high school nerd who is picked on, overruled by his parents, and has very few friends. Until he meets Christine, a run-down 1958 Plymouth Fury and buys her. Arnie learns that Christine has a thing for him and devotes his time to restoring her to Mint Condition. But overtime, Arnie begins to change and becomes disconnected with reality and his friends. Arnie's girlfriend Leigh and best friend Dennis find out that Christine's previous owner cared about nothing else when he bought her and find out that Arnie is becoming just like him. The only way they can bring Arnie back to reality is to destroy Christine, But Arnie and Christine are ready to destroy them first and any one else who gets in their way. IMDB

Eragon.

Meh, I was disapointed. I mean, it could have been so much better, but it just turned out to be a predictable, boring and unfinished movie.

Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Fantastic sets - warped and nightmarish.
Fantastic plot - creepy and satisfyingly dark to the bone.
