Arkansas (2020)
Seen quite a lot of this before and huge great borrowing from Tarantino as usual. Malkovich under used, Vaughan alright, bit of a vehicle for Brolin's daughter, pretty average all told. A few good dark laughs. So, let's say half marks, 5/10 being a touch generous, but we have to add 1, so 6/10, because Vaughan get's to wear the best most colourful cowboy blouses the silver screen has ever seen. Trust me on this bit. A vision in technicolor. Music also above average. There is a vibe of 'cell block 99' to it, I thought we'd get more but it's a bit slow.

I hadn't realised Paul Freeman who plays Belloq in 'Raiders of the lost ark', made his film debut as Colin - Harold Shand's eased out right hand man in 'The long good Friday'.

Is Howard’s way worth the cost of the rental?

I said up front it’ll be crap for 2 reasons:
1) Taron Egerton
2) Jason Bateman

Clearly something very very wrong with you.

Red (2008) 9pm LEGEND XTRA

One of my favourite "I'm not sure what I fancy" films.

Carry-On on Netflix. Truly one of the worst films I’ve ever seen. Mrs wanted to watch it even though I said up front it’ll be crap for 2 reasons:
1) Taron Egerton
2) Jason Bateman

It gets worse from there and there’s plot holes all over the shop.

Avoid like another season of watching Dycheball.

'Hang em high' channel 5 now. Oh go on then...

Dusk till Dawn, a Tarentino classic. Not rewatched it for years.

Isn't it directed by Robert Rodriguez?

View attachment 288521


One of the daftest horror flicks in existence, after a painstaking restoration from this can be seen in all it's glory.
Subtitled - Your Sister Is A Werewolf, the ludicrous story transfers the location to eastern Europe, adds copious nudity led by Sybil Danning's ample assets, ups the gore and loses the brains.
The acting is painful, not helped by having Christopher Lee taking it seriously, plot is all over the place, design choices are baffling.
There's scenes with people looking like they have no idea what's going on, attempts to make werewolves sexy (they're not, no-one wants to see a hairy threesome), and some utter curvreballs thrown in, like a scene filmed in Rick Deckard's flat, and Jimmy Nail as an LA punk, with a lingering geordie accent.

Absolutely crackers. On a blu ray.

So watching this.

The History boys. Gets better with every watch.

A truly awful film featuring the egregious James Corden.

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

Bucha.

A must-watch, IMO. A very hard-hitting reenactment of the true story of the Bucha atrocity. Seeing what the Russians did is disturbing and hard to believe that such actions are happening in Europe again in the 2020s.
