@AMGT I avoid all zombie movies. Although, I got stuck in a situation where I had to watch "World War Z". I closed my eyes for most of the zombie parts. I won't watch "The Walking Dead", or it's spinoff. I even have trouble with the White Walkers on "Game of Thrones". The whole idea of the "undead" really freaks me out.

@AMGT I love that one!

If you get a chance, watch the spoof of that movie. Night of the dawn of the day of the living dead, or something like that. It’s the original film but with all new dialog. It’s cute and might wash the creep factor away. It should be on YouTube

Zombies rock! I live near where they filmed NOTLD, although a little closer to the original Dawn of the Dead location. My sister told me about them filming that and wanting extras for it. My Mother wouldn't let me go, though.

@IndySent I've yet to watch the 3rd one. Those are worse than the Saw movies!

And knowing that is based off true events.. makes it even more nasty.

@mistymoon77 that's just Fucked Up!
shiver

This x100

@MrLizard I actually have Frank the bunny tattooed on my arm

I watched it with my brother in law, and for some reason I was finishing lines even though it was my first viewing. The bit that surprised him is when I started a rant about smurfette only to find that the movie was also going in that direction.

I lived the movie before the movie... I saw the original... "where the buffalo roams" with Peter Boyle and Bill Murray on acid but it was other times.

@GipsyOfNewSpain I remember "Where the Buffalo Roam." Bill Murray made a great Hunter S.. I think Benicio del Toro played a better Dr. Gonzo than Peter Boyle, though I do love Peter Boyle. In any case, it certainly made a big impression on my teenage mind.

@Lysistrata Homeboy Benicio is a good actor... It was Hunter Thompson after all... he had fond memories of Puerto Rico... he was stationed at Ramey Air Force Base... thus the Rum Diaries. My teen buddies were extras on the Rum Diaries. There will never be Press again as Hunter Thompson.

@GipsyOfNewSpain The journey of psychedelic discovery was given a bad name by hippies.

@Lysistrata They had to blame somebody besides Timothy Leary and with the CIA background and the CIA jumpers on the 50's... hippies with their "peace and love dropped out attitude" were perfect for the government agenda. I lived those days to the fullest. Hippies found a Paradise in P.R. I met many I hanged out with. The runaways.

Ok, eraser head? WTF? I still can’t quite process that 35 years later

I second Lynch's movies man. Mulholland Falls is a favorite of mine.

@mrcharlie65 Yeah ... I've not researched Eraser Head.

I didn't know what Mulholland Drive was really about until I decided to research it. Then I was recommended The Lost Highway. And I had to look into that as well.

Lynch is truly unique and masterful in converting the psychosis presented in those two movies into narratives. Of course, they were "WTFs" as viewing experiences.

yeah flying monkeys

@btroje right? Fucking terrifying

@Marcie1974 sucked all the fun out of that flm

@btroje what fun? Tornadoes??? I still have nightmares every spring about tornadoes (I’m 44). Witches? shivers

@btroje sadly I still watch it every year when it’s aired on tv so that goes to show how smart I am.

Kinda like ogling a train wreck I guess.

I was 8 and easily impressed. Now it seems more silly and farcical. @BawdyEclectic

I saw it when I was young. I laughed at it, the special effects were, though good at the time were easily fake.

@IndySent I Didn't know it was a book! The movie was with Jennifer Connelly and Ben Kingsley. 2003.

I was soooo disappointed with Saving Private Ryan when at the end it was Matt Damon. Really ruined it for me. I am not that into war movies, but The Thin Red Line is fabulous!

@NaturalBornCynic I have seen them all.. and yes, that was a nasty one too, they all are but its just how they are put together.. its so real and just depressing.. I can't handle war movies at all after watching Hamberger Hill and a couple others like that.

I saw 'Johnny Got His Gun' in the early 1980's so by the time those two flicks came out I knew better than to even think about seeing them.

Another great one. I was baffled until after he took the red pill red pill and Kansas went bye-bye!

I think we must have posted roughly at the same time. Yes, Momento was a mind bender, right from the opening when we realized--after the discarded gun flew back into the killer's hand and the Polaroid photo from which the image had vanished before our eyes was sucked back into the camera--that we were watching the entire scene in reverse order.

Moral of that story: if a lovely woman asks you to spit in a cup of coffee, don't!

Viddy well ill brother. Viddy well.

I do enjoy a malenky bit of the ultraviolence, tolchocking starry teacher type vecks in the yarbles and grudies.

My wife hates the movie because of the loose end. As he went to spin the token I realized and told her, "There not going to show whether it stops!"

Anyway, I recently read that there is supposedly a tell after they pan away from the token towards the doorway... the presence of a specific character indicates reality or not.

THIS. It’s a great film, but one that I never need to watch again.

I do like a space film that isn't afraid to venture into sonic realism.

I have heard that and others said it was awful - I'm in a dilemma now....

I liked it. The husband was a demon or something.

oh, you are completely right lol. the question wasn't why but what film. it was nearly 40 years ago

Underrated movie.
One of the best looking movies I ever saw. No CGI! NOT impressed with CGI. Makes it way too easy.

Do you watch the HBO show too?

I've heard about it but I've not seen it. I saw the original about 40 years ago?? When I was a little kid. It was the first of that kind of movie that I ever saw so it was super crazy, weird!!@Piece2YourPuzzle

@MrLizard and I never will

maybe about the time I saw that movie
