okay so i got like 30 minutes into eraserhead last night but then my gf started to fall asleep and she wants to watch it too so we pulled the plug. its just as odd as i remember!
I have some major issues with De Palma, but I also think Phantom of the Paradise fits the bill for quite a few reasons. It’s certainly more straight up cult than some of what we’ve talked about, lol.
Ooh murder party rules, it’s my favorite of all his “normal people who are terrible at murder” movies. Phantom of the Paradise is the most “cult” movie I’ve ever seen, it’s completely insane. Cult horror is like one of my favorite things, so I can contribute a lot to that side of the discussion, but I’m excited to watch the others, this thread rules.
Yeah, the only problem with Phantom is I have no idea if it’s streaming anywhere for people to watch together. I know I had to splurge on a DVD years ago just to have access.
Yeah, my copy was *sure* not cheap, that probably isn’t doable. My suggestions personally would be Brain Damage The Beyond The Sentinel Troll 2 Demons House (1977) Inland Empire Slither The Dark Crystal Scanners I know a couple of those are streaming, brain damage, Demons and The Beyond are all on Shudder and House is a Criterion. I’ve got more, but a lot of them are super gory or fucked up or impossible to find, so I figured I’d save those for the horror thread lol
I’m down for pretty much anything on that list. I watch Troll 2 start to finish more than is probably healthy.
i am in for whatever you guys tell me to watch but i do strongly back Troll 2 sooner rather than later so i can make my gf watch it
we'll try it for a few more weeks and if no one participates and it doesn't work then it doesn't work this week's film is Clue
this is the schedule: Clue Murder Party Troll 2 Miami Connection Koyaanisqatsi Hausu Pink Flamingos Under the Skin True Romance Night of the Living Dead 3 Women Branded to Kill Holy Motors Safe remember: you have two weeks to watch the movie being discussed. if you'd like to contribute to the list, just lmk what you'd like to be added
Clue is one where I don’t even need to rewatch it to participate, but of course I will anyway. Never gets old.
Because I suck I haven't watched Eraserhead yet, but I'm gonna catch up on it and Clue this week. I did watch Murder Party because I mentioned it to a friend and he then forced it upon me. It was great though.
