My favorite part of Murder Party is that one woman's video art project that is just her sitting in a bathtub while someone dumps hotdogs all over her. It's funny and also really believable, I've seen even dumber video art in real life.

Speaking of video art, I’m back in Chicago and just discovered Sinema Obscura on local late night cable, they show a bunch of local music videos and short films.

I remember they did a live script reading of Reservoir Dogs in LA with an all black cast and I'm still kicking myself for missing that.

The answer is Freaked (1993).

I went to possibly the last repertory screening of Freaked last night. Alex Winter, Tom Stern, and a bunch of the cast and crew were in attendance, it was awesome. They had slices of the original animation plates for the intro on display (and for sale), and gave out official Freaked styrofoam cups. Now that Fox is dead and Disney owns their catalogue and put a moratorium on repertory screenings, chances of seeing this on the big screen are slim.

Gonz posted:

STYROFOAM CUPS......bad for the environment.”

Before the movie started Tom Stern told everyone to drop their cups all in unison when Ricky knocks over the cup in the movie. Also, they had Paul Leary from the Butthole Surfers play his guitar solos in the movie live in front of the screen (it was both a little distracting and too low audibly, but it was fun to see him shred on stage), and they had a “holographic Henry Rollins” play along to the opening which in reality was just a flash animation of Henry jumping around and lip syncing to the intro song. Still all in all it was a hell of an experience and it was dope seeing all these creative people earnestly excited to be a part of it.

Mortal Kombat: Oscar edition would be pretty fun. I’d totally buy one if I can play as Forrest Gump beating the poo poo out of the cops from Crash.

The taunt button would just be Forrest yelling “Jenny!” over and over again.

That was the dumbest loving controversy ever. The fact that people lost their goddamn minds over a very briefly visible boob on tv goes to show you how hosed up our priorities are and how weird and repressed our culture us about nudity and ,god forbid, sexuality. Kids can see all manner of murders and beatings on tv but a woman's breast will warp their minds!

It’s even more stupid when you see the flesh colored body stocking Britney Spears wore when she did the halftime show.

One of the angriest moments of my life was finding out this happened less than an hour I had driven past this location on Sunset. Spent the entire time he was out there at Amoeba Records instead of hanging out with Lynch and a cow.

This happened less than a year before I moved to LA. :(

Amoeba owns, I bought a bunch of awesome horror movie soundtracks on vinyl last time I was there.

5 or 6 years ago I went to Amoeba and bought the Car Wash soundtrack on vinyl for like 2 bucks.

The last time I went to Amoeba they were selling that same record for 30 dollars.

I could’ve done without the cheesy sword fight but the rest is a lot of fun and the cast is really solid. They should’ve done another movie about the survivors on the preserve instead of whatever The Predator was supposed to be about.

For some reason, I got it in my head that in Home Alone, the main gangster, Johnny, was Gene Hackman in heavy makeup and doing a goofy voice. It freaked the hell out of me when that same actor showed up in the Chuck Norris movie Code of Silence.

Watching a double feature of Shot Caller and Brawl In Cell Block 99 really shines the light on what a garbage movie Brawl is. The only saving grace was the soundtrack, which really belonged in a better movie.

Saturnalia posted:

Shot Caller was quite effective at illustrating how the American private prison system is at destroying anyone who enters them psychologically. The brutal racial segregation was portrayed accurately, too - those loving prison gangs.

Yeah, the entire time I was watching Brawl, I was like, where the gently caress is the AB? No way they’d let this guy be his own island, and there were too many scenes where everyone backing off of Vaughn so he can drop sick burns, and the end was the worst kind of white guy wish fulfillment imaginable. It’s like Zahler watched the Counselor and needed to write a story where the white guy got one over on the cartel in the end.

Animal Factory and American Me are two of the rawest prison movies I’ve ever seen, Shot Caller is getting added to that list. Brawl in Cell Block 99 is not.
