Second Skin (2008)

Was this review helpful? [Be the first to tell us!]
 "Second Skin (2008) Second Skin follows the lives of seven people as they delve in to the world of MMORPGs (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games). The film follows three distinct stories involving seven people. The most detailed plotline follows Chris, Matt, Anthony and Andy, four friends and housemates living in Indiana. They play WoW as often as they can, and also document their gaming sessions. Tension breaks out amongst the four friends as they ignore the responsibilities in life including Andy whose wife becomes pregnant with twins. She at first supports his hobby (addiction), but slowly begins to disapprove with the amount of time he spends gaming. The film also follows Dan (a recovering WoW addict whose addiction cost him his relationship, his business and his home before kicking the habit); Liz the founder of Online Gamers Anonymous; Heather and Kevin, a couple whose romance began in Everquest II, and finally Andrew who suffering from physical disabilities finds ...

Episode 49 - Midnight Meat Trai ...

"Episode 49 - Bloody Radical part 3 Listen now! All kinds of exciting things happen to human flesh in our final show on Fantasia's new wave of American horror films. It's harvested in harsh socioeconomic conditions in Darren Lynn Bousman's passion project Repo! The Genetic Opera. It's hung up on hooks and stripped like cattle in the much-anticipated Clive Barker adaptation The Midnight Meat Train. (Those last two were both world premieres, folks.) It's devoured and processed in all kinds of nasty ways in teen zombie comedy Dance of the Dead. Redneck flesh gets an especially grotesque treatment in the exploitation flick Trailer Park of Terror. Finally, it's dispatched through a number of inventive methods in the suicide cult thriller From Within. Even the Aussies aren't immune - their new thriller Dying Breed centers around an isolated camp of forest-dwelling cannibals! Much like tofu, however, all of this goremongering isn't worth much without the right chemistry - do any of these ... " [More]

"sorry guys - I posted this wihtout the proper link - If this ever happens in the future you can just go directly to our site - www.naked-lunch.org we actually would prefer that - thanks again! Episode 48 - The Killing Joke Listen Now! Download the show! Everything you wanted to know about the Dark Knight but were afraid to ask. We apologize for the delay. This show should have been up last Thursday but we had some technical problems. In any case it seems we went a little over board. It was expected seeing as I am such a huge fan of the Batman comics. The show is split into three parts - the first is non spoiler review of the Dark Knight! The second is a look back at Batman Begins. Finally the last part of the show is a ``Spoiler Alert`` review on The Dark Knight. We recommend you take it one step at a time. Thank you for listening! The Dark Knight It's the year's most anticipated film, so accordingly we've got an extended look at The Dark Knight, Christopher Nolan's latest Bat-o ... " [More]

 "King of Kong: A fistful of quarters Christians have Jesus Christ, Islam has Allah and classic video gamers have Billy Mitchell. The man who held the Donkey Kong record for almost twenty five years is the subject of a documentary in which an unknown newcomer in the classic gaming circle, Steve Wiebe, poses a serious threat to Mitchell's ancient record and the subsequent mind games that ensues between both men. Mitchell is a character unlike any other. Not only does he compare himself to the Red Baron, the most prolific World War II fighter pilot, he also models his life around the idea that he is leaps and bounds ahead of the pack when it comes to classic gaming. Although the community is so small and otherwise insignificant, he revels in the fact that he sits atop a virtual throne and praised by his followers. He exudes a level of confidence so unhealthy that it borders megalomania. His ties are decked in American colors and his trophy wife follows him around with a fa ... " [More]

Wardance / Young At Heart

 "They Can Feel It In Their Bones War Dance Thinkfilm, 2007 Directed by Sean Fine and Andrea Nix Young@Heart Fox Searchlight, 2008 Directed by Stephen Walker Anyone who ever found solace in any of its myriad forms can testify to the transformative powers of art, and those who do will find something to relate in two seemingly unrelated but thematically similar documentaries. War Dance introduces us to the Acholi tribe of Northern Uganda, an ethnic group that faces unthinkable violence on a daily basis at the hands of Ugandan president Yoweri Musevini (who has frequently been compared to Uganda's more infamous despot, Idi Amin). Forced into isolated camps, the greatest burdens are carried by the group's children, many of whom have been orphaned by the killers that wait in the surrounding bush. The doc's focus, however, lies with a Uganda-wide music and dance competetition, in which the Acholi children are competing for the first time. While the performance sections of the film are i ...

 "The Nomi Song (2005) Directed by Andrew Horn Looks like an alien, sings like a diva! An incredible documentary about Klause Nomi, a cult figure in the New Wave Underground scene during the 80`s. Nomi was a German emigrant who in the 1970s and 1980s took downtown New York by storm with his unique look and incredible operatic voice. Dressing like David Byrne while spiking his hair and applying layers of eyeliner and white powder to his face, Nomi would sing pop standards like opera arias. He first came to the attention of New York's art scene in 1978 with his performance of Vaudeville in a "new wave" format at a four night event MC'd by artist David McDermott. The reaction was so overwhelming that he was invited to perform at all the top clubs in New York City, assembling a group of unknown artists at the time including Joey Arias, Jean Michel Basquait, Keith Haring and Johnny Sex. Andrew Horn's portrait of the new wave star Klaus Nomi is quite simply a master piece. A vivid portrait ... " [More]

 "The Killer of Sheep Killer of Sheep; don't let the title put you off! In cinematic history (that's a really long time!) few films have portrayed ghetto life as accurately and humanely as ‘Killer in Sheep'. What aspects, you might ask, make it a real standout among others? Well, consider the fact that it was shot by a UCLA student on weekends with a shoestring budget, using a mostly amateur cast. Charles Burnett, the director of this poignant tale, unknowingly created a film that has acquired cult status since its creation thirty years ago. Although very few independent movies that suffered the same initial fate as Killer of Sheep (limited distribution) can be called "cult films" today (Punishment Park and Stroszek come to mind), critics unanimously lauded this simplistic production for its accurate depiction of the down-and-out lifestyle many people suffered in Watts, an African-American ghetto of Los Angeles.

 "Dance of the Dead (2008) When he couldn't get a green light for Dance of the Dead director Gregg Bishop took $15k which he earned from the profits from his short film and funded his own movie. The result was the hitThe Other Side released in 2006. The film premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival and was picked up for a theatrical release. It was a huge hit with critics and after the producers saw his film they finally gave the go ahead forDance of the Dead. Thank god! The film doesn't isn't in any way groundbreaking. If anything it could be best describes as a cross between Return of The Living Dead and Carrie only with the cast of Fast Times at Ridgemond High. It all takes place around an all Americanhigh school on prom night. Of course like most high schools, the institution is located next to not only a graveyard but also a nuclear power plant. A chemical gets leaked without any explanation (but who needs on in a zombie film) and the dead turn to life. The film's premise is v ... " [More]

 "The Midnight Meat Train (2008) The Midnight Meat Train is based on Clive Barker's 1984 short story of the same name, which can be found in Volume One of Barker's collection Books of Blood. The film follows a photographer who attempts to track down a serial killer dubbed the "Subway Butcher" and discovers more than he bargained for under the city streets. Directed by Japanese director Ryuhei Kitamura , it stars Bradley Cooper, Roger Bart, Vinnie Jones and Brooke Shields. Despite being the most famous horror novelist next to Stephen King, only very few films have been made from Barker's work. Three of those he actually directed. To be honest I have not been a fan of most of these films save for Candyman and Lord of Illusions. Clive Barker's Books of Blood is considered the holy grail of horror literature but the film adaptation of Midnight Meat Train is hit and miss. I know it is based on a short story but at times the film makers seemed hard up on ideas on where to go with the film. ... " [More]

 "Growing up my favorite time of the week was Sunday nights, which was Disney night. At the ripe old age of 22, though, I ditched Mickey and his crummy club, looking for something more 'mature'. That is when I discovered "A Clockwork Orange", a masterpiece in surrealism and ultra-violent sexual deviancy. I instantly became a huge fan of Malcolm McDowell's devilish grin and acting prowess so I sought out his other films. Unsurprisingly, in "if…" he plays the same confrontational little bastard that would foreshadow his status as one of Britain's most coveted actors. Upon its release, "if…" was slapped with an X certificate by the British Board of Film Censors, which did not do wonders for its success. The rating is no surprise though, since the movie deals with the radical uprising of youths in a public school. The controversial nature of the movie, which promotes revolt against autocracy, was inspired by similar events taking place in Paris. In 1968, French students a ... " [More]
