i'm sure he'll be grateful, and appreciates the fact that you're planning to steal his work while he had to sweat blood to have it made

verily i say unto him, what a privilege to get your work stolen by a fan such as murmer.

Murmer99 · 11.06.2012, 06:22 PM

Detour

Perhaps the ultimate B Movie Noir; it was made for practically nothing, clocks in at barely over the hour and has to one of the bleakest, seediest films to have ever come out of Hollywood (Fritz Lang's film noirs aside). Saddest thing is that all the DVD versions are from terrible prints, although that at least adds to the z-grade cheapness of it all. As with classic westerns, when I watch movies like this I find myself wondering why I bother watching anything else. Massively recommended.

girl whose brother is bullied to death seeks revenge on the ringleader who just so happens to be the son of a yakuza boss. special effects by the director of tokyo gore police. one of the better japanese gore films i've seen.

This movie had a lot to offer, but I think the last scene ruined it for me. It just didn't fit, and was not appropriate for the style of the film. They could have maintained the true-to-life human quality of the story by making the "climax" more subtle and less of a goddamn spectacle.

There were also some plot elements that didn't really make sense in the end; things that went unexplained, which the viewer is left to guess about. Like, why did he lie about Belinda? Why was it so important for him to do what he was doing, especially if his story didn't line up? Did he just want to go back so he could not be a retard?

And how did Darius's mother die? I think that the story would have benefitted from his having something to do with that.

98% of the film was very good, though.

thanks demonrail. That reminds me of this other underrated film that seems to have been completely overlooked and forgotten.

it has one of the most mesmerizing atmospheres

evollove · 11.11.2012, 03:01 PM

Since we're playing this game . . .

KISS ME DEADLY (1955) -- One of my favorite noirs. Worth it for the explosive ending alone.

demonrail666 · 11.11.2012, 04:59 PM

I really must rewatch that. I saw it again recently and was surprised that I couldn't get into it but I'm convinced I just wasn't in the right mood. Too much about it makes it irrational that I should suddenly not like it. Although I'll always prefer the sheer simplicity of Detour.

Shocking to admit but I've never actually seen that. I've always overlooked it because I always thought it was made in the 'wrong' era for a noir. Stupid I know.

demonrail666 · 11.12.2012, 05:21 AM

Bande à part

I'm starting to think I prefer movies that've been influenced by Godard far more than I do his own films.

!@#$%! · 11.13.2012, 08:12 AM

LifeDistortion · 11.13.2012, 10:26 PM

I just saw this, and it was great. Does anyone know if this is an official promo or just fan art?

demonrail666 · 11.14.2012, 01:59 AM

It looks like fan art to me. I wanna see Skyfall. Fingers crossed I'll enjoy it more than I did Quantum of Solace.

Toilet & Bowels · 11.14.2012, 02:53 AM

I saw Skyfall, it was ok, but I don't really like Bond films very much.

Rob Instigator · 11.14.2012, 07:51 AM

I cant wait for skyfall. I really dug quantum of solace, even though people were down on it.

ilduclo · 11.14.2012, 04:01 PM

saw the Future (Miranda July). I thought it was really good, ms Ild fucking hated it.
