Recently I've rented a ton of movies. I plan on renting a ton more. I'm going to post my little reviews here. (Keep in mind it takes a LOT for me to think a movie is good, I'm usually not phased by most I watch)
Some of these first few I got frol the "cult fims" thread. Others I got from various places.
Brazil - I was waaaaaaay too messed up to attempt to understand this movie. I'll re-rent it.
Dr. Strangelove - Same as Brazil, I'll re-rent it.
Polyester - By John Waters, pretty weird.
Scottland, PA - Good movie. I got a new line from it.. "F*ck, F*ckety F*ck" .. it was amusing at the time.
Vulgar - Not good. Twisted, meaningless plot. Rundown, Clown needs money, clown goes on call, clown gets raped, clown saves girl, clown gets tv show, clown kills rapers.
The Streetfighter - Sonny Chiba. Good Movie.
The Streetfighter Returns - Sonny Chiba, not bad for a sequel but seemed to be lacking.
Eraserhead - This is the second time I've seen it. The first was over a year ago and I didn't remember it exactly. My impression: "O.......kay."
Godfather - Excellent. I know, I should have seen it before now.
Jacob's Ladder - Eh, I remember this movie getting a lot of hype but I don't see why. It was good, not great.
Ninku - An anime. Cute story. Only 30 mins long.
Six String Samauri - Uh. Cheesy, but still cute.
Ghost World - I liked the tone of the movie. I liked the main star. It wasn't a bad movie, I could watch it again.
The Ring Virus - This is the original ring done in Korea, I believe. It was good, not especially scary but still good.
The Ring 2 - This is the sequel to The Ring done in Japan. The Ring - Japan version - was rented so we got the sequel since we saw The Ring Virus. The sequel was Ok. Not terribly scary.
Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood - I liked this movie. Don't know what it was that I liked but I'd recommend it.
