"[quote user="Risselada"] Please reference this thread for the rules of this group. So it was announced a while ago that Martin Scorsese will again be directing Robert De Niro in an upcomming movie called I Heard You Paint Houses. While the potential release is still a long way off lets talk about your favorite of these filmmakers' previous collaborations. Please vote only once in each poll. Movies referenced in this poll:Cape FearCasinoGoodfellasThe King of ComedyMean StreetsNew York, New YorkRaging BullTaxi Driver [/quote] Wow, this is a tuff one for me.I am huge fan of Scorsese and De Niro.I remember seeing Cape Fear at the theaters when I was a kid and liked very much. Raging bull was another good one, but not a favorite. Huge fan of mob movie and books. Casino was good but it didnt do nothing for me. I remember reading a book entitled Murder Machine which was about a serial killing hit squad among the time Goodfellas was supposed to take place. This crew in the book was alo ... " [More]

"Sorry, wrapped up in my own little world. Funny world that it may be.. [quote user="Risselada"] [quote user="Macabre_FilmNut"] First I have to say Venice Film Festival - Leone d’Oro (Golden Lion), becasue it is the oldest film Festival in the world and then Berlin International Film Festival - Goldener Bär (Golden Bear). Alot of them on the list including Cannes and I still go through the winners, but its to much hollywood hype for me these day. As where Venice is not so much even though it is the oldest and Berlin its mostly European. I prefer the more independent festivals, not so much hype. Plus I am a huge Horror fan and the ocasiionally Catherine Breillat film. [/quote] Yay, someone who agrees with me! Did you actually vote though? I see the Leone d’Oro still only has one vote (mine).

Re:Must see zombie movies?
By Macabre_FilmNut in Zombie Obsession
"No to Quarantine, not a really big fan of foreign remakes. As for the original, [Rec] yes. Very much Zombie and I enjoyed it. I see no one has mention Outpost (2007) another good zombie movie. Oh and something that looks really good. Kinda B-rated. Defitently a zombie movie. Død snø a.k.a. Dead Snow. Take a look: http://www.shocktillyoudrop.co m/news/topnews.php?id=8754 Oh and another good mention a 5 day reality zombie show that took place in and outside of the U.K. Big Brother House durnig the week of Halloween of last year. Dead Set is what it was called and you can see it here http://www.e4.com/deadset/ [quote user="divinemsjunebug"] Thanks Gor, just thought I'd see if we can throw some life in here. Has anyone seen the movie Quarantine? I think this is a remake of an older Spanish movie. I've only seen the previews of it but it looks like it might have a "zombieish" theme. If anyone has seen it, is it like that? Is it worth watching? It looks pretty cool in ... " [More]

"[quote user="rjsprague"] Yeah I've never been a huge fan of horror, so I figured I'd get some of you lovers of horror to contribute your thoughts on this list. I'd love to see a you guys make your own and post a link here or something. =) [/quote] I myself read alot of blogs. Heavy into horror, especially overseas stuff. But I watch everything. Lately surrealism and experimental, not sure why? I saw that list and for the most part its great , it tried to cover everytjing. But there is really no J-horor, such as SHIBUYA KAIDAN 1 & 2 a.k.a The Locker. Happy to see À l'intérieur (2007) and Let the Right One In (2008). But no mention of Ils a.k.a Them.. I am not sure why they are mentioning remakes, even though it maybe good. Such as the Ring in the states and the original Ringu.(1998). Like someone said above Eyes wide shut wasn't a horror. I rather see some more Takashi Miike or even Fabrice Du Welz,Calvaire (2004). If it was me I wouldnt of put Cemetery Man (1994 ... " [More]

My Bloody Valentine 3-D

Re:My Bloody Valentine Remake
By Macabre_FilmNut in HORROR MOVIES 101
"[quote user="Dr_Gor"] [quote user="divinemsjunebug"] Has anyone seen the trailer for this? You know I'm not much for remakes but this actually looks pretty fun because they've made it in 3D. I really liked the original movie, it's not very well known but it was pretty good. Anyone have any opinion on the old movie or the new one? [/quote] This new version looks like it will be pretty cool. The original was a very good low-budget Canadian horror film that caught on to the "slasher/horror" craze of the early 1980's but with an interesting twist, the killer was a Miner! NOT a 'minor', the killer in this movie is someone over 18 years old who works (or WORKED) in a mine ... Of course this leads to some rather creative and inventive and gruesome ways to dispatch a person... I liked this movie a lot back in the day and I still like it a lot today. Of course this instantly reminded me of another "cult-horror-jump-on-the-bandw agon-holliday-slasher-flick" called April ... " [More]

"[quote user="Dr_Gor"] [quote user="seely"] During out Dracula competition, part of my job was to find Monica Bellucci fan sites to promote our contest to. Let me tell you, not a bad job to have :-) My girfriend had a hard time understanding how it was 'work related' though... [quote user="jdice31"] My all time favorite female vamp is Monica Bellucci in dracula. She was not in it long but it was very memorable.

Trust me on this one... < GOR > [/quote] Funny, I just jumped back on here from a leave of absence and the first thing i see is <GOR> mention Vampire Lovers. I just obtained that move and another one called Countess Dracula, on a Midnite movie dvd, all by chance. I found all these dvds back awhile ago and now I ... " [More]

One particular part in this film was a show called "The Carnival Against The Nazis on April 30, 1978" Talk about 50 to 100,000 people willing to Riot!

By Macabre_FilmNut in HORROR MOVIES 101
"I don't frighten very easy either. There are some movies that are so brutal or realistic such as Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986) and those home invasions. Curious to know if you are talking about, Vincent Cassel's Sheitan (2006). I hate to say it but some of the new french horror such as Inside, I will never look at scissors the same again or even knitting needles! But for scare tactic I would have to say movies like, A Tale of Two Sisters (2003). Nothing gorey just pyschological like most asian stuff. " [More]
