Image via WikipediaWell... I cannot see Part 1 because of Netflix's new asinine rules. But I'm really enjoying Part 2 of "The Descent". Very Aussie (I think). Perhaps that's why the girls are all so gorgeous.
It's way more claustrophobic than "Buried" (alive) with (my new favorite actor, Ryan Reynolds. He can do anything!).
Personally, I don't know why anyone would crawl down into a dark hole in the ground... esp. for fun. Ugh. My worst nightmare.
Then add a few man-eating humanoid creatures and you have this film. A bit gory. A bit scary. But... all in all (since I would never be that stupid in the first place), I'm not impressed.
If you like dark, tight places with moments of abject terror, go for it. Otherwise, the monsters are not that creative and it is "bloody hell!"

The CLASSIC CREATURE FEATURE "Bugged"
Image by ~Brenda-Starr~ via FlickrIt's hard for me to believe that this movie was created as late as 1997. I thought perhaps a 70's B-Film and here's why.
One of the things I found most amusing about this film is the reverse-racism. Not your typical Hollywood tinsel as (almost) everyone is black... except for a "token" white person here and, rarely, there.
Makes you aware just how racist Hollywood really is.
But this is my favorite kind of film.
The first time you see the created
monster, you will laugh your arse off.
Only disappointment, really, is that there is a scene that is a transparent (but humorous) knock-off of the original "FLY" movie. At least it doesn't take itself too seriously.
Favorite Line: "Over to the left, dear."

Movie Review: "Tetsuo: The Bullet Man"
Image via WikipediaI've never considered myself big on "Artsy" films, but wow. This film begins in black and white with minor colorations here and there. Just gorgeous... and this definitely adds to the intensity from the opening scene.
Definition: Tetsuo - Iron Man; Fast like a Ninja.
No subtitles (thank goodness) but definitely foreign in nature. Asian. Apparently this is the third in the series, but new to me.
The graphics? I loved 'em. Reminded me of 80's Pop Video. Not something you would expect in a film. Creative and entertaining.
The plot? Mind-bending.
Been looking to find the nationality of Eric Bossick (the star of this film) but had no luck. As some of you well know, I have this thing for (especially 1/2 Asian and 1/2 American men). Eric looks to fit the bill but I can't confirm it. Let me know what you find out.
It all started with my month in Japan (to study Karate), at seventeen, when I became enamored of the 1/2 and 1/2 actor Masao Kusakari (he was in a Japanese version of the TV series Starsky and Hutch).
ANYWAY, this film is a fricken carnival coaster ride. Are they still showing that film in 7th grade about the hallucinogenic powers of marijuana (the "portal drug")? It reminded me of that.

HOTTIE of the Day goes to Paul Walker of The Lazarus Project
Image via WikipediaThe Lazarus Project (Image via RottenTomatoes.com)This movie, The Lazarus Project, is slow moving but mysterious. Even though it seems to just drag on and on... you simply must know what comes next.
Favorite Line:
"Sometimes I think the only real medicine is to accept our lives as they are."
Favorite Idea:
A dog named "Dog". But that rings a bell. Do you know of another movie that used that idea?
Then, of course, Paul Walker's (Fast and Furious) easy-going sexy style doesn't hurt. Mmm. Among other things is that sensual soft-spoken voice and, of course, a woman is always turned on by the HOT yet DEVOTED family man. In this pic, he fits the bill.
Plus, we have Piper Perabo (who names their kid Piper?!). But OOOweeee! She is somethin'. For some reason, these two make me want to break back into my southern sweaty-hot-summer-day drawl (I lived in Georgia for four years). She has that sexy-but-demure essence that a woman (great actress or not!) just cannot manufacture out of thin air. She's the real thing.
AND as far as endings go... the ending to this movie is pure genius. Probably my favorite ever.

Funny VIDEOS: TaeKwonDo Toddlers, How to Silence a Crying Baby, Arab Man learns the Treadmill, Banned Viagra Commercial
Yahoo had some great videos today!
TaeKwonDo Toddlers!
How to silence your crying baby:
This one I found on YouTube while trying to find "Woman dances on treadmill" by Yahoo. It's an Arab man learning the Treadmill. This is NOT to make fun of Arab people. This is just funny. There are plenty of funny videos by Americans too, and others, on YouTube. Enjoy.
Hopefully, you'll laugh as hard as I did:
And just ONE MORE. Sorry, but I couldn't resist... A Banned Viagra Commercial:
