  1. If EC3 came in they'd have to do the Dynasty in AEW. Have to.
  2. I'm not even going to speculate on why they were trying to bring librarians into the conversation.
  3. Man, just think about it. The raid on the police station? The little girl getting shot? The car chase across the bridge? Plisskin walking away with the tape? Those were HIS SHOTS. I'm sure John had a lot to do with them, but they were still his.
  4. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/douglas-knapp-dead-cinematographer-camera-operator-john-carpenter-was-70-1276804?fbclid=IwAR2OxEvZOvu_5XLO3DnwDDwv6yJ1KxCxxes4OsOq84NK4xuhbkNPb0Iq6NQ Guess this one kind of went under the radar. Look at that lineup... damn. RIP
  5. A further example of the greatness of Reed Mullin. Haven't heard this in forever and it's great.
  6. Wasn't it somebody on here saying they had to dub that guy in his Death Wish ripoff movie or did I read that elsewhere? Anyway, that'll make it even better.
  7. The poster just popped up in my Facebook feed from some podcast I don't even listen to; I didn't even think to find the trailer. That's gonna be one great piece of shit.
  8. Oh man, the Hungarian fake Charles Bronson vs. a Jason/Leatherface type slasher? Yes please!
  9. I want the giant box glued to an empty wrapping paper roll tube mallet to make another appearance.
  10. From Bloody Disgusting: I'm not sure the fans want another Chainsaw at all but whatever
  11. Good lord did that main die a death. Crowd was all but out the door.
  12. Now why the fuck would you do that? Just kick him and let him fall through the board instead of putting yourself through it. Plus, it looks stupid.
  13. Continuing down the Prime Music Doc road, Gimme Danger was really good. I dunno if Jim Jarmusch has done other documentaries but this one worked. Then again, the topic was the Stooges, so really he couldn't lose. I knew all the stories and more from various books so there wasn't much new to me but for those who don't know the history of the Stooges it's a must-see. Iggy is another of those wonders of nature, who knows how or why he's still alive and not in a wheelchair either, he just has that strange glow around him. Scott Asheton on the other hand sounds like an 80 year old man trying to remember his name (not to speak ill of the dead or anything). I really just wish Ron would have lived to do this, I'm sure he would had some mercurial thoughts to provide, especially concerning the Raw Power and after stuff which they pretty much gloss over recording-wise and in talking about the debauchery in Hollywood where Ig was taking every drug known to man while Ron was living off table scraps with holes in his boots.
  14. Tell us how you really feel about the competition Mr. Suzuki
  15. Ooof. Acute enteritis is what killed David Von Erich.
  16. Great, I didn't know that existed, and now I have to watch it. First time I ever saw their Electrified BW match was on Stranglemania 2 where the idiots (ICP) repeated Combat getting dropped on her head a thousand times in a row while laughing their asses off. EDIT: Whoops, just noticed that it's Shark vs. Kudo! Nevermind, don't have to bother watching after all!
  17. His kid wants to play hockey but he just wants to watch replays of the beatdown. He does listless MMA where he gets trapped in submissions a lot. He can't listen to X-Japan anymore and can only play "Don't Know What You Got Til It's Gone" over and over. I can get down with that, make it really overblown.
  18. I was gonna mention JR saying Re: Scorpio Sky "I didn't call him 2 Cold Scorpio, at least I know better than that" or somesuch. If he's gonna do it at least let them and himself laugh at him for it.
  19. The wrestling movie talk made me look for Lucha Mexico on Amazon Prime which led me to watching the Rat Skates doc which led me to watching The Rainbow. The Rat Skates is homemade and pretty much just details the early years of Overkill and how he did everything DIY. It's fun if you like old Overkill, I guess. He shits on bands doing the Satanic, anti-Christian thing which he can fuck off for but whatever, he was more than happy to jump that trend back then too. It is funny seeing Overkill looking like Too Fast for Love-era Motley Crue but with corpse paint. ANYWAY. The Rainbow is where it's at. It should be called The Rainbow and the Whisky A Go-Go, because it details the history of both clubs, ran by the Maglieri family for three generations now. Their importance as venue and watering hole for rock music is pretty much unsurpassed and it's cool seeing how the Whisky got imported from France to start the go-go thing here, Mr. Maglieri came down from Chicago to clean the place up and run it, and then they turned the movie star watering hole the Villa Nova next door into the Rainbow. They shot it before Mario died and Lemmy from Motorhead (who practically lived there) died so we get interviews with them, Slash, Lita Ford, Gene Simmons, Ozzy, etc. Both places really deserve to be declared local or national landmarks considering all the clubs (some of which are listed at the end) being bought out and gentrified around the country. Also I wish I could get ahold of the two songs over the closing credits done by one Simon O'Connor of MGMT, really good NWOBHM-style rock with great guitar harmonies. I have no idea who MGMT are but they don't sound like that at all. Oh and there are several lucha docs and Lucha Mexico on Prime. The latter you either pay for or have to go through the Starz package, though.
  20. That was one of the first things in my Shudder queue and I never finished watching it again. Gonna have to rectify that. EDIT: aaaaaaand it's gone from Shudder.
  21. For that matter all of the lucha films starring El Santo, Blue Demon, Mil Mascaras, etc.
  22. From Beyond is on Comet next and has been doing the rounds, just to give a heads up.
  23. But it's a glorified 4-5 HOUR LONG Raw! So much more Good Shit (TM) for your buck!
