Electrophantasia

Have a few more movies to list, bringing me pretty much up to date for the last couple months.
Transsiberian (Blu-Ray)
This is a sort of mystery/thriller that takes place on the Trans-Siberian Express. I love this sort of stuff, so it’s no wonder I loved this movie. Trains are just plain fascinating, and the [...]

So hey.  Yeah, the month of October was kind of a wash.  I’ve been busy, geeze.  To break out of my not-postingtude I’m just going to go over some of the movies I’ve recently acquired and briefly what I think of them.  This will probably cover about the last month and a half.  Remember, in [...]

You know, writing these things is difficult.  It’s difficult for me to get up and just do it.  That’s partly why I’ve been doing it in the first place.  I need practice at motivating myself to write.  It’s nice to do it in this informal venue where I can type an intro like this and [...]

I think at the end of the last post I made some promise about covering a good movie next.  Well I sort of lied and I sort of didn’t.  In any event at the time I didn’t mean to lie.  Regardless, let’s get this over with.
The Day Time Ended was produced by Charles Band, who [...]

Continuing on our obscure vein, we have this inexplicable film.  I’m going to start this tale with a trio of screencaps that show faces made by the cast of War of the Planets that probably reflect some of my own as I viewed the film.

As you can see it goes something like this:
Step 1: Confusion, [...]

Condemned to Live was directed by Frank R. Strayer, whose major achievement in life seems to have been [...]

I saw Wall-E last night at the theater.  Now, I believe that everyone is perfectly entitled to their opinion.  You don’t like Speed Racer?  That’s fine.  You want to actually enjoy some bad movie, that’s fine too.  I do that lots of times.
Based on my experience last night I can tell you two things, though.  [...]

Well I kind of implied that I was going to do a second thing on Hellraiser, so here goes a quickie.
I think I gave a pretty clear idea of what my reaction to the first film in the series was back in my original post.  Going into the second film I had both the experience [...]

It is both odd and appropriate that I begin this project with a horror movie. Appropriate because I’m supposed to be trying something different here. Odd because I don’t particularly like horror movies, as a general rule. At least that’s what I’ve said a lot of the time. I think that [...]
