Drag Me To Hell was one hell of a roller coaster ride. I was expecting it to have those funny overtones but it was all srs bizzness.

i thought there were some funny parts. like the main character was constantly on the receiving end of some serious gumming. then the way this line was delivered towards the end had me laughing pretty hard:

SPOILER???

- "Oh no she's dead!!"
- "Yes."

It's not at END END of the movie, but ok whatever I guess I fail.

Haha, okay...

You've checked out Martyrs yet? Wanna hear your thoughts on it.

bright lights, big city · Jun 02, 2009, 03:02 PM

yeah! I finally did see it, and I really enjoyed it! Soo bloody and violent, wow. In the end, I think I prefer Inside over Martyrs though.

A friend of mine liked it, but thought it was too much like Hostel. Whatd you think?

I loved it. One of my favorite horror movies in years. So many unsettleling scenes... the imaginary "demon" chasing and slashing Lucie, the tortured girl who Anna discovers (when she starts scraping her arm with the knife and rubs her face at the wall...holy shit, that was fucked)...and the ending. Fucking loved that ending!

I loved how unpredictable it was and it was nice to see an original story for once. I think Hostel is a Disney flick compared to this.

Yeah..those scenes kinda made me cringe with a smile on my face, but I didn't laugh much. But I admit there was one part that I did laugh at, and it was towards the end.

Anyone here seen BRONSON yet? That shit is awesome. It's based on a true story about Britain's Most Violent Prisoner. Should check it out

theis · Jun 08, 2009, 08:35 PM

Watched Repo Man. Awesome 80's cheese.

I saw The Girl Next Door for the first time the other day. It was a lot better than I expected it to be. Emile Hirsch did a great job as did Elisha Cuthbert to give us a relationship that seemed believable.

theis · Jun 08, 2009, 09:07 PM

That's a boner worthy flick right there.

lostpilot · Jun 08, 2009, 09:52 PM

Identity for the second time tonight.
Yeah, I like this movie very much

lostpilot · Jun 16, 2009, 10:41 PM

Seriously? I liked The Signal very much.
yes you may call me names etc
generally I just enjoyed it's simplicity (not the ending though), style, some comedy etc.
acting was pleasurable. generally.. even though everyone seem to be hating this movie, I enjoyed it

I love You, Man.

Oh, I fucking LOVE Paul Rudd and Jason Segel. What a wonderful movie. Absolutely hilarious and very sweet, too. Seriously, I'd love to have a friend like Sidney Fife...I mean, who wouldn't? The whole Rush thing gave me a big smile, too.

awesome man, I too really enjoyed that movie. I loved when they first meet at that open house, and Jason Segel starts talking about that guy farting, and provides the commentary. Great stuff.

Also "Im slappin' da bass". hahaha, when he doesn't stop you can just see his fiancee cracking up. hilarious.

Drag Me to Hell.

Great fun. Just a shame they used so much CGI instead of practical effects (especially in the eye/goo popping scene).

lostpilot · Jun 19, 2009, 03:47 PM

Coraline.
childish yet really funny and nice.

Wolverine.
I just did not like it. It lacked substance, quality, etc.. :/

you could right about that, but I really think Raimi used older ways to get the effects. The end credits listed so many puppeteers. I can't remember, was the goat all CGI? or do you think that was a puppet?
