the fucking Avatar movie on Nickelodeon
I acknowledge what I just said and now I will say that I liked it!

I picked up some anime on the cheap the other day:
"Lady Death." I'd give it a METAL/10

You only give Men Behind The Sun a 6/10?!?
That is seriously one of the most fucked up films I have ever seen, and made a lasting impression beyond shock factor. There's stuff in that movie I'm surprised no one was arrested for.

Eh, I guess. It was alright. I don't rate films based upon their importance or reputation, I rate them based upon on how much I enjoyed them.

I watched it directly after PHILOSOPHY OF A KNIFE, which is 4 hours and 26 minutes of non stop gore (seriously, the goriest film ever made -- though it's not in color, so that kinda takes away from it) and is about a million times more shocking than Men Behind the Sun... and it's also about Unit 731. However, Men Behind the Sun is a better film in many ways.

Anyway, philosophy of a knife is worth a watch, it's not really that good, it's just insane. Wait until you see the graphic scenes of cockroaches being put into actual vaginas, faces being completely melted off (which takes like 10 minutes; I mean, it really shows every stage of the face melting off), and ... well, if you need to know more, look it up on imdb. It's a bit much and I NEVER want to watch it again EVER, but if you have netflix you might as well queue it.

Filled with brilliant parts... too much of a good thing perhaps.

The brood, the fly, battle royale, and last house on the left are all awesome.

I watced BODY DOUBLE by BRIAN DE PALMA..






 

8/10.

Brilliant.

Yeah I'd heard so many things about that movie and didn't feel fulfilled.
Plus the plot could have bene a little more... coherent?
I don't know it wasn't terrible it just wasn't the awesomeness I thought it would be.

viewtiful_alan 07.22.2008 11:30 PM

 

Shit shit movie, but I had a hell of a fun time watching it... so in that case...
6.5/10 for sheer enjoyment.
Haha its one of those ideas that is scary (dental torture.. oww..) but can never work as a movie.. XD

atsonicpark 07.23.2008 12:09 AM

The Dentist 2 is hilarious aha.

you know what cracks me up about that movie?

they are supposed to be students but they are obviously old people with costumes.

but perhaps everyone looked like that in the 50s. stress, bad nutrition, hard labor...
