im sick of mel and that wanker russel crow ......they both make me....

I've got  'The Happening', 'Hannibal Rising' and '10,000 BC'arriving in the post from Bigpond today... looks lie a DVD night tonight, then.

Has anyone else here ever seen 'The Hidden' with Kyle McLachlan.... seen it about a dozen times before, but there's something about that movie and I have it on order for a future Bigpond delivery..... had it on VCR but I think the tape got all worn out.

Ooooo Killer!!

I'm dying to see Hannibal Rising, I have all the others

Kyle McLachlan, Desperate Housewives/Twin Peaks McLachlan? he's cool, is the hidden when they're on an island?? it's a 2 parts thing?

Yup, the same Kyle McLachlen as Desperate Housewives/Twin Peaks.... and he's great in 'The Hidden', plays the part really well.

The Hidden is about an FBI agent hunting a murderer, but with a twist... the murderer happens to be an alien with a penchant for fast cars (particularly Ferraris), power and sex.  Sounds like a lot of politicians, don't it!

There are further twists, but I won't ruin it for you... if you like sci-fi, horror, action and Kyle McLachlan, etc, I recommend it as a must see movie.

Sweet!!!!, because I never know what to hire these days, I was looking at videoezy's site a few months back for a good horror, and there was this movie called RECTUMA.. yeah <-- and the description said it was about a Mexican butt-h*mping frog that attacks some guy on a beach [man this sounds insane, but look this flick up, it really exists, unfortunately ] , and then his butt detaches itself when he's asleep, and goes on a murderous rampage

 I hired it.. c'mon, anyone would've after THAT description  his butt was nothing but a shadow on the wall, and when it killed someone, all you saw was someone on the floor partially covered with that green slime you buy in toy stores  AND.. I swear this one particular person was trying not to laugh, way to play dead moron

Actually, I don't think they were really actors, probably walk-ins off the street..

I sat through as much of this flick as I could stomach, with that blank Homer Simpson look on my face--> needless to say, it looked like a 2 year old filmed it with a camera phone, a TOY one, and the backgrounds in the actual movie were back-drops, that looked like elephants painted them... no.. actually elephants paint quite well, scratch that remark.. hence.. I am still seeking good flicks

Edit.. Oh man.. here-->

They made it sound like it would be hilarious... they lied

I should have spent my 3 bucks on fruit tingles...or...something.

I  actually skipped to the credits [they were the most entertaining bits of the flick] to see if NOKIA had anything to do with it's production

Given your description, it sounds bloody awful and not something I'd be remotely interested in.... sounds bloody WOEFUL, EEEEW!

Like, I can relate to a killer butt - I mean, who'd know about that better than me - but that's ridiculous.

Other goodies include:

Beowulf... the Angelina Jolie version.

Beastmaster... series of 4, all good.

Bloodrayne... first is good, Bloodrayne: Deliverance not so good.

Powder... not a horror but still a good view.

Seven... a good thriller with horror undertones.

Hitcher... the original with Rutger Hauer... a classic.

End Days... good horror theme with big Arnie.

Prophesy... a series of 5 movies with Christopher Walken.

The Ninth Gate... good thriller with Johnny Depp.

Trick or Treat... look out for Gene Simmons and Ozzy Osbourne cameos.

The Exorcism Of Emily Rose... dunno 'bout the green peas soup, but still good....

Just to name a few

Hitcher... the original with Rutger Hauer... <--- LOVE THIS!!!! and C. Thomas Howel [spelling?] that movie is so sick I love it, and Seven I have, that's awesome and a few of the others.

Yes.. starkers, Rectuma was ass.. just plain ass

Trick or Treat... look out for Gene Simmons and Ozzy Osbourne cameos

_______________

STARKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have that AND the record [yes, the vinyl record] it is awesome!

Ozzy plays a Reverand LOL, and Gene's a DJ, well hey, he's cool, he's da man

[Ozzy has been my idol since I was 12 and I saw Kiss in 1980 hehe]

It seems that you have already seen a few of those movies I suggested...

Yeah, Trick or Treat was a classic teen horror flick... and Ozzy as a reverend decrying 'metal' as the devil's music was ironic, wasn't it... being that is what he is famous for.

Another movie with Rutger Hauer and Gene Simmons is 'Dead or Alive... Hauer is a retired agent brought back to capture a famed terrorist, Simmons... another good view if you can find it.

I'll watch anything with Rutger Hauer in it... he one of my fav actors... 'Blind Fury' is another of his well worth a watch... he plays the part of a blind guy who is far from being handicapped, and who saves the day for the good guys.

Yeah, I saw Kiss at Lang Park in 1980... Ace Frehely sure kicked ass with his axe that night.

Hell yes, he had ball shooters coming out of his axe, but a friend I use to know did the lights for that concert, the entire thing was lip synched

Yes, Dead or Alive is cool, love the pub name = Drink til 2, Pistol noon and Blind Fury I have [I'm a Rutger fan] love it when he pets the alligator with his cane and says Nice doggie"

Yes.. poor Rev Headstrom [Ozzy] had his brain done in by Sammy Curr hehehe-->via the TV

Seems we have more in common than crook backs... I have just about everything he's done, mostly on VHS, but Istill have a VCR hooked up to my TV for when I/we want to watch all that old stuff we don't have on DVD.

We've seen quite a few of the same movies... so now I'm wondering if we have similar tastes in music??  I'm mostly into the blues, 60's and 70's stuff, metal other than thrash or def, hard rock and jazz bues fusion... if it has a real mean axe involved I'm pretty much into it, 'cept punk and rap.

I never ever listen to pop crap on the radio, so I look for and seek out quite a lot of obscure stuff that never gets airplay on commercial stations: ie. Porcupine Tree; Lacrimas Prufundere. My Morning Jacket; David T Chastain; Perpetual Groove and Edenbridge, etc.... but I also have an extensive CD collection of clasic bands like Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep and Nazareth, etc... not to mention Pink Floyd, Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Stones.

Oh yeag, TG, if you can find it, Freeway with Reese Witherspoon and Keifer Sutherland is well worth a watch.  Witherspoon is excellent in her role, which is a far cry from the sweet goodie two shoes character she played in the Legally Blonde movies.

There is a sequel, Freeway II, but it does not star Witherspoon and lacks the punch of the first installment... however, it's not bad just the same.

Sweet, I love reese, and Keifer rocks!!

hehe me too, my Rutger movies are all VHS, just got to get them all on DVD now, oh yeah, another one, Blind Spot, that's a good one with Rutger & Rebbecca DeMorany [sp?]

Sadly, he wasn't looking like his handsome tough-guy self in Batman Begins, but I still love him

I got that on VHS... along with Wedlock, Blindside, Salute of the Jugger and others.

What got me into Rutger Hauer was when he put the grenade in Gene Simmons' mouth and the boss asks: "what about the bonus?" for bringing him in alive... and Rutger says: "F**k the bonus!" and pulls the pin.  Classic!

Personally, I don't care if he had a huge wart on the end of his nose... I'd still watch his movies and thinks he's great.

F* the bonus was one of THE most awesome lines in any movie I've seen, that cracked me [and my Dad too] right up

Gene had a weird name, I can't spell it, so phonetically I'll give it a shot hehe, Malrak El Raheem?

I'm an idiot, Blindside was what I meant doh, not blind spot, silly me

Rutger in his RV "I don't give a sh!t about the neighbours" lol

Speaking of Rutger Hauer, I've been trying to get Omega Doom on DVD. Unfortunately it only appears to be on Region 1... You know, the one with the robots, the talking head used as a football etc.

There is a double feature DVD of Omega Doom/Blind Fury which would be even better - alas that too is Region 1 only

Have you checked to see if there's a way to make your player region free? Here's a good place to start.

I have a Blu-Ray and a HD - neither has hacks.

Hey Fuzzy, could you not just purchase the region 1 disc and reauthor it to be region free in something like DVD Dercrypter or a similar proggie??  I had to do that for a couple of DVD's mrs starkers really, really wanted but could only get online in region 1 and NTSC, someyhing our old PAL player would not play.  I don't know your thoughts or about the UK laws on this, but in a lot of countries you can backup DVD's and CD's if you keep the backup and original together, as proof you purchased it/them.

Dunno, it's just a thought which may help you .

I feel for you Fuzzy. When I bought a DVD-Recorder last year I made sure that it was code-free, as I was stuck with my collection of Region 4 DVD's as well as quite a few Region 1 DVD's. I don't know how it is over on the Island, but here in Switzerland it is perfectly legal and you can buy them in any shop (they are usually a bit more expensive, and you can't get every model, but it is worth the trouble).

We have also shops here that do the region-free unlocking on already purchased models. Maybe you have such a shop near you? Another possiblility would be to Google your model and see if there is an easy way to do this yourself (some Players can actually be unlocked through special codes that have to be entered via the remote).

How dare the Film-Industry divide the world into 5 regions!!!!
