Movie Portion
Walk The Line - **** or ***** - Extremely pleased with this one and made me like Johnny all the more.
Best Parts: "luckily i number my feathers for just such an occasion", and Johnny and June singing "Babe it ain`t me" while his wife sits watching.
The Devil`s Rejects - ***** - Viva la fucked up horror movies. WAY more threatening or dark than the first.
Best Parts: All the skin parts of Sherri Moon :) , "looks like you`re not getting out so easy this time...huh bitch??", "Sherriff!!!!!!! I`ll see you.........IN FUCKINNNNN HEEEEELLLLLLL HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!", "You I think I still smell you`re wife`s pussy stink on the barrell of my gun.... hope it don`t rust the barrell." "Tootie fuckin fruity!", "We regret to inform you that the banjo and sullivan concert has been cancelled tonight."
Videodrome - ***** - Really dark, really fucked up, really experimental, and quite prophetic. Man airs torture and soft core porn to get ratings on dinky little cable channel but by watching it controls his mind then from there his body. Kind of a mediocre description because so many things are hinted at or metaphors or such.
Best Parts: When Maxx shoots Barry Convex with his gun and the bullets slowly eat their way back out his body as we see Barry`s head basically split in two as his body convulses, "Long Live The New Flesh"
Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas - **** or ***** - Good lord to trip with these guys. I dunno what to say about it more than that.
Best Parts: The whole begining car ride into Vegas, Getting thrown out of Debbie Reynolds for laughing hysterically when she plays Sgt Pepper`s, "You can tell a dope fiend from the semen stains on his pants from when he`s been jacking off after not finding a rape victim".
Ed Wood - **** - The Story of the worst director ever.
Best Parts: "The movie stunk!" Well the next one will be even better!!!", "How do you do that?" "You have to be double jointed", "PULL THE STRING!!!!!!!! PULL THE STRING!!!!!", Bela waving the octopus arms around.
Twin Peaks - Fire Walk With Me - ***** can I give it 6 please? - Man did I fall for this show and movie this year. I was the part of an obsessed fan, I can`t get enough of it. The show is completely great then the movie takes the strangeness, visuals, darkness, hidden meanings and totally ups them. If you don`t watch the show then this you will be totally and utterly hopelessly lost. This really upped my taste in Lynch movies BIG time. I don`t really know what else I can write about this but it has totally changed my perspective on what can be done with a movie and changed me for the better.
Best Parts: Finding the letter under Teresa Banks finger, David Lynch as Gordon adding comic relief, David Bowie telling of his time away while we flash to a fucked up scene of BOB and The Man From Another Place, all the abuse (mental and otherwise) you see Laura go through it really pushes the story along, the really fucked up ending leading up to Laura`s death.
Eraserhead - *** - Great visuals representing the nightmare that is the fear of becoming a father. The music is great too.
Best Parts: The In Heaven radiator lady, the death of the baby.
