On the other hand, that movie Samaritan was pretty good for a Stallone flick.

John wick is a movie about how cool it would be to plan and carry out a mass shooting in, for example, a nightclub.

I tried to watch roadhouse (never seen it) in the last couple of years and god drat.. I actually couldn’t

Dirty Dancing was huge here, so when Road House came out on rental video they just renamed it ’Dirty Fighting’ :sweden:

Gee what if they made a movie like john wick movie for kids, set in a school? That would probably be a really good idea.

i'll actually stan for saw because it was a good idea, executed well, and it's actually not that gory/bad

but then everything it inspired/spawned was really, really bad and ruined horror movies for me

i like that the guy from dave's killer bread was open and honest about killing people but then sort of went vehicular homicide mode with a giant truck after a meth bender

and he'd totally redeemed himself, the bread is pretty good

my fave thing like this was when I left the cinema after seeing Dredd and hearing a woman saying "who even was he? Why was he just all grim all the time?" because yeah if you knew nothing it was just "grim face man is in a building and shooting people and he's a judge but why?"

yeah, i agree with that. saw was good, i'm glad i watched it, etc. saw 2-50 and the rest of the tortureporn brigade it spawned, though, aren't worth anything. hostel sucked.

i thought wolf creek and haute tension were both pretty good though. wolf creek specifically had Victim A in a position where they were hiding or trying to rescue Victim B or something, and the bad guy was being evil to Victim B. They made the whole sequence actually _scary_ - there was no undercurrent of voyeurism or enjoyment that made so many of those movies absolutely disgusting. you were very much there _with_ Victim A

like, i'm still not gonna go back and watch it 10 years later or whatever 'cause i dont like that kind of violence at all these days. but at least wolf creek showed that there was something TO the subgenre qua horror rather than a mondo-style thing that's just for people who enjoy watching others get hurt (which is exactly how hostel et al felt to me)
