When I say I’ve seen it all, that’s a big statement. But then I saw this. Pink Flamingos. How could a god create something so … pink-flamingo-ey. And why’s that dude got to fuck a chicken on the naked woman?

This acting is so awful, I don’t even have the words to describe it, and I’ve just come off a decent acid binge. For the time period, this movie was revolting, and that’s what it wanted to be. People loved it. Instant cult classic. For me however it was lacking, but who am I to say for a time period I wasn’t apart of.

Here’s a piece from the DVD:

I recently found The Dark Hours lurking around the internet. It is a psychological thriller that really leaves you wanting more.

The movie is about a psychiatrist who (I don’t want to say gets a taste of her own medicine but whatever) has a tumor and begins to experience the effects of it as it gets larger in her brain. Eventually she ends up killing some people, and then the movie is over. I’m going to have to watch it again and maybe think it through.

It seemed like a good movie if you’re in the mood for a psychological thriller. It did seem short, or maybe I just enjoyed it (running time is 1hr 20mins, so not really short).

If you’ve seen the movie, comments would definitely be appreciated.

Antikörper (aka Antibodies) is a German flick about  a psycho serial killer that knows who’s behind another murder the police are trying to solve.

A small village police man is the only person this killer will talk to, for reasons you’ll see when you watch it. That’s when the movie gets a bit more twisted, the discussions between the village cop and the killer.

Eventually they do figure out who killed the person they are looking for, and it was kinda evident or at least to some degree.

This is a pretty good movie, easy to follow. It is in German so you’ll need subs if you don’t speak it, but I’d definitely suggest it. Good solid thriller movie with some good directing.

Antibodies (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Hagen Bogdanski (Cinematographer). Dark Sky Films 2007, DVD, $12.24

In this movie you’ll be surprised to discover there are some toys which are demonic.   The fun part is finding out exactly why they are demonic.  The movie goes on to show us that on Halloween night 1925 a baby came into the world stillborn.  Little did they know it was a demon baby when for some reason they gave the corpse to some kids trick or treating.  They discovered it was a dead baby and tossed it into a construction site.

Fast forward like 60-some years later and now a building is sitting on that site, with the corpse still below it.  Some cops get into a altercation with some criminals and they run into the warehouse.  One of the criminals is bleeding because of a gun shot wound and the blood seeps into cracks in the floor.  The blood gives the demon, who we later find out is Satan, the power to animate the toys.  After that it becomes a battle against the toys.  The movie is filled with corny one-liners and random unnecessary nudity.  If you’re a fan of cheesy 80s / early 90s horror movies then definitely check this one out.
