Radio Blue Heart is on the air!

Holy shit! “Frankenstein’s Army” is finally being made and it looks amazing!

It had been promised since the “Worst Case Scenario” debacle in 2006 or so. 

I really, really want to see this movie.

On a related note, the same article where i found this said that there is going to be a sequel to “Dead Snow” and a second sequel to “Outpost”!

“Stalingrad 3D”!

Holy crap! This looks amazing!

It has Columbia’s logo at the start, so hopefully it will get a release in North America! I want to see this on a movie screen!

“Evil Dead” review

As I said in my last post. For her birthday, I took my friend Hunter to see the remake of “Evil Dead”. I am a huge fan of the original and I always prefer classic films over remakes, so I was skeptical. 

Overall I thought it was a worthy effort, but it is not my “Evil Dead”. It had excellent gore, a good deal of it practical effects. The acting was a little lopsided and I thought a few of the set pieces were a little absurd but it was still worth seeing. 

I found out that if this film was a success, and it was, Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell will make “Army of Darkness 2” (technically “Evil Dead 4”) and will cross it over with this film. So in a way, this film is less a remake and more of a companion piece to the original trilogy. 

At birth, I was cast into a flaming pit of scum forgotten by God.
Mickey Knox, “Natural Born Killers”
Inside me I’m screaming, nobody pays any attention. If I had arms, I could kill myself. If I had legs, I could run away. If I had a voice, I could talk and be some kind of company for myself. I could yell for help, but nobody would help me… S.O.S. Help…

New and not-so new movies

I got a new movie in the mail the other day. “Flesheater” by Bill Hinzman who played the cemetery zombie in the original “Night of the Living Dead”. I bought it as part of a three pack of zombie movies with “Zombi Holocaust” and “Burial Ground”. I already have those two, but it was cheaper to buy all three than to Get “Flesheater” by itself.

It is a cheesy but very fun and entertaining zombie flick. A dumbass farmer who is pulling stumps in a field finds a coffin with some satanic stuff written on it and opens it. inside is Hinzman, essentially reprising his “Night of the Living Dead” role, who then goes about killing people and turning the into zombies. I loved it. 

The three films came in one case. But of course, part the case is broken and it can’t hold all three discs any more. I am working on finding replacements, but probably won’t get them until tomorrow. I can give each movie its own case. 

While I was at the used book store I found a copy of “Alice In Wonderland”. I need to finish reading it. 

Worth repeat viewings

After talking to Hunter, who was going to make a day out of going to the movie theater, I decided to do the same. I went to see “The Hobbit” again because it is just that good a movie. I got out in time to see “Texas Chainsaw 3D” but I just got the urge to go home. I might see it next weekend. 

We had a phone conversation about the magic of movies and how much we love them. We both came to the same conclusion that it is inconceivable that people would treat movies like a form of disposable entertainment, from mistreating DVDs to not even giving some films a repeat viewing. How callously they look at them. 

Even when they are bad they have some value. At the movies there was preview of Riff Trax preforming “Manos, The Hands of Fate”. Bad food gives you an upset stomach, bad music annoys you, but movies can be a lot of fun!

Movies are magic.
