I was wrong. Go to about 1:17.

Esteban I watched the new one last night.

More depressing by the end, then anything else. But even Jacob did the shimmy-thing in the remake.


What disturbs me the most: How long are YOU ALL going to continue this experiment on ME??? 54 years is enough of this to determine whatever it is you are trying to determine about my psyche!!!!!!

Stephen King’s - “The Shining”. Literally gives me chills each time I watch it.

Don't if it is already mentioned but "Get Out" was also pretty heavy. I thought it was a great movie but no way I can watch it again.

My wife spent the weekend with her mom on a "girls weekend" kinda thing. Antiques, baking, lots of feelings, probably some crying. You know the deal. So i did what any mid-40s married guy would do in the time of COVID. I hit the local butcher shop for a juicy rib eye, picked up bottle of 4 Roses small batch, and settled in on the sofa with the dogs to watch anything but the typical romcom my wife likes to watch. I was looking for anything with explosions, guns, zombies, car chases, boobs, and all-out apocalyptic mayhem. Army of the Dead had so much promise but fell so flat.

It should have been directed by Robert Rodriguez. Mic drop.

Agreed on the potential this film had. All the makings were there.

Cracking up the set up on this post. "probably some crying"

I'm not sure why but I keep rooting for Dave Bautista to make a decent movie. It's kinda like Nicholas Cage, who I'd keep watching in movies and rooting for in the the hopes he'd do well. I guess i like an underdog.

Same! I saw him in The Man with Iron Fists and thought to myself, "Hm." I really thought this might be the movie for him to shine in. I was too hopeful for sure.

Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Clockwork_Orange_(film)

The violence is portrayed in such an off hand, random and casual way, I found it very, very difficult to watch. Even Kubrick requested it’s withdrawal from cinemas in the UK. When I saw it on television about ten years ago, it was shown late at night and came with a strong warning / caveat. For me, no “horror” comes within a country mile, of just how disturbing some of the scenes in this film, present violence.

One of my favorite films. Disturbing in a desensitized & sarcastic humor-ish way. I could only imagine how well this would go over being released today.

The opening sequence of "Saving Private Ryan" when I first saw it years ago in the movie theater. It damn near made me sick and I cannot even begin to fathom actually being one of those soldiers on that day.

Now having said that, it was one of the best movies I had ever seen bar none.
