Ordered Repo Man, Tampopo (missed the screening here but people keep telling me it's good) and Fire Walk With Me (which will be my first real exposure to actual Twin Peaks instead of things taking inspiration from it). Wanted to get more since the dollar being so close to parity works in my favour, but I'm holding off for now.

Are you saying you haven't seen the original Twin Peaks series? Because if so, I hope you're not going to watch FWWM yet, because the movie assumes you already know the biggest spoiler of the whole drat show.

Cloks posted:Have you seen The Lady Vanishes? Good combination of humor and intrigue and I think it rewards multiple viewings. The director is a bit of an unknown but he made a psuedo-remake of Diabolique called "Psycho".

Probably going to sit this one out, but I will maybe pick up Le Samourai and Jabberwocky later this month. Though, I'm getting Barry Lyndon as a gift to my aunt and uncle since neither have ever seen it yet and I know they'll love it.

While I agree to an extent, I think it tells its story well enough that you don't HAVE to watch Twin Peaks. It'll definitely ruin Twin Peaks though because of a) Spoilers b) How tonally different it is from the first two seasons.

I do plan to watch Twin Peaks at some point especially with the revival run finished. Considering that it took me over a year to actually watch my Dr. Strangelove Criterion who knows when I will get to FWWM though.

Picked up Vampyr and Brazil last night, I might grab a couple more after my next paycheck. Otherwise the sale comes around often enough (and I'm backlogged enough as it is) that I don't mind waiting.

Went in to pick up Barry Lyndon for my aunt/uncle, but ended up also getting Carnival of Souls and Breathless after wanting them for a while. Also found The Wicker Man and The Bridge on the River Kwai for cheap.

Might not mean much for disc, but Filmstruck has a ton of Jim Henson films online. Pretty much all his experimental/animated short films and TV specials.

Picked up HOUSE and Videodrome from B&N. My wife likes "creepy" horror like American Horror Story, but hates jump scares, I get the feeling both of these are more in the former category?

House is like getting high and going to a candy store to murder someone.

One of the specials on FilmStruck for Henson’s work is Monster Maker, which stars Harry Dean Stanton as a Harryhausen-esque puppeteer.

House is one of my favorite movies ever, but I honestly wouldn’t go into it expecting spooks. You’ll be disappointed. The pitch I would give it is that it’s like an episode of Scooby Doo if it were made by a Japanese man who had only heard the premise described to him on a very loud train. Videodrome is creepy though.

Picked up Stalker on the way home from work, excited to get into it tonight. Probably going to pick up Blood Simple before the sale ends too.

House is a horror movie in the same way Evil Dead 2 is.

House is a horror movie in the truest sense as a 'trick film.' It's melies/de chomon old school

Videodrome is one of my favorite movies of all time - and it's bonkers too, albeit in a different way.

The classic media set was fantastic, but if I can get an eclipse box set with fuckin' Destroy All Monsters, I'll def re-up.

Just a few days ago I was even gonna make a post asking what would be the next likely Godzilla movie Criterion would release but stupidly thought the idea was too outlandish. I love being wrong sometimes.

The Godzilla films were such a rights nightmare in the US I honestly never thought we'd see another one released as a Criterion.

I watched Crook's Tour today. Am I the first person to have actually seen this film? It wasn't as good as The Lady Vanishes or even Night Train to Munich but it was a fun enough 80 minute romp with a couple of solid gags.
