ALI FEAR EATS THE SOUL

I SAW THIS IN MY UNDERGRADUATE FILM INTRO CLASS AND SINCE COLLEGE IS FULL OF IDIOTS PEOPLE WERE LIKE "EW GROSS1!!!!@1212" EVERY 3 MINUTES

i was just informed that there is no dvd release (or even vhs) of fassbinders welt am draht. this is unacceptable

― fe7 (FE7), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 15:27 (twenty years ago)

I am excited by pending DVD release of Wes Craven's Swamp Thing.

my favorite fassbinder is still chinese roulette (especially for the head-fuck music by Peer Raben) though more than 66% of his movies are all my favorites when I'm watching them

― milton parker (Jon L), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 17:25 (twenty years ago)

YES!! Chinese Roulette!!

I forgot about that one...Anna Karina is in it too!!!!!

― ddb (ddb), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 17:45 (twenty years ago)

Ha! I was in a similar situation during a screening of "Blue Velvet" ... also undergrads will never get tired of laughing about how large Gordon Gekko's phone is.

(from this page, which I wouldn't read before seeing the film, but has great stills)

the Fassbinder that features ADII is DAS KILASHAUSER FART. AKA THE NIKLASHAUSEN JOURNEY. it was a very nonsensical movie. There was just an ADII music vid. in the middle of it. weird movie. i liked it.

― Ian John50n (orion), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 19:06 (twenty years ago)

need to see that one. and haven't seen world on a wire yet, as fe zaffe noted it's a crime that one's not on DVD

still reading jim's reviews I linked above, that guy really knows his fassbinder, the crosslinks are amazing.

― milton parker (Jon L), Wednesday, 17 August 2005 19:09 (twenty years ago)

thanks for the link milton parker!

ever time I see a TV listing for that rightwing assfucking Fox & Friends, I think of RWF all leathered-out in FOX AND HIS FRIENDS

― m coleman (lovebug starski), Saturday, 20 August 2005 19:51 (twenty years ago)

veronika voss is the best one in the BRD trilogy

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Saturday, 20 August 2005 20:10 (twenty years ago)

Kill Your Idols came out a year or two ago, part of the Tribecca Film Festival. I DJ'd the "opening" party or something with Nick Zinner. I actually played "no wave" music and dancey early 80s ny stuff to great resposne. Nick played hip-hop. I didn't think I could follow that up, but people were really into it, dancing to Ze disco. I didn't get to see the movie though. The guy who produced it was in Circus Mort with Michael Gira, that's kind of noise. Whether they successfully make the case/draw comparisons from the late 70s/80s scene to the then scene of bands like Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Flux Information Sciences, Liars etc, who knows.

HOWEVER,

I just watched Bogdanovich's Targets. That's a kick-ass movie! Great back-story also. Check it out.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Sunday, 21 August 2005 07:46 (twenty years ago)

m coleman, that is a great TV sketch that almost no one would get ... so, public access!

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 22 August 2005 15:21 (twenty years ago)

speaking of Larry Cohen, I also just watched Special Effects. That movie had a lot of crazy great fun ideas and was kinda enjoyable, despite being kinda bad.

Fassbinder fans (and everyone really) should see Kamikaze 89 which is like a great 70s Alphaville kind of a thing starring Fassbinder.

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Wednesday, 30 November 2005 16:02 (twenty years ago)

is that the one where fassbinder humps a lifesize picture of neil armstrong?? if so, classic

― Yawn (Wintermute), Wednesday, 30 November 2005 16:28 (twenty years ago)

Ha ha, I think so maybe. Was it like a lifesize wallpaper mural or something? That sounds familiar.

After having had two features selected in competition – Eureka (2000) and Desert Moon (2001) - Shinji Aoyama is in Cannes this year to present Eli, Eli, Lema Sabachthani? in the Un Certain Regard section. The film takes place in the not-too-distant future, in 2015. A virus is spreading in several of the world's cities. Once a person is infected, he develops the disease: the patient is driven to commit suicide.

"Is this how the world will enter its dark winter ?" wonders the Japanese director. "If we keep cinema and rock n' roll, we will be able to survive this winter and pass through it. This quiet but powerful film was born from this spirit, this Will. We hope you will all share the experience."

― [use of street parade as pivotal set piece] (nordicskilla), Friday, 30 December 2005 20:19 (twenty years ago)

but eureka was so boring!!

― Yawn (Wintermute), Sunday, 1 January 2006 16:34 (twenty years ago)

yall need to rent the sword, the best movie to smoke up to ever

― Yawn (Wintermute), Sunday, 1 January 2006 16:42 (twenty years ago)

I liked Eureka! I liked how they kicked out the obnoxious Tokyo cousin and he just disappeared completely from the film..

― dar1a g (daria g), Monday, 2 January 2006 07:28 (twenty years ago)

OMG that stalker poster!

― it was jody that killed the beast (Jody Beth Rosen), Monday, 2 January 2006 07:49 (twenty years ago)

Castellari's 'The New Barbarians' aka 'Warriors of the Wasteland'. There's an awesome decapitation scene with a twitching mechanical dummy. And all the *futuristic* cars make identical electric whirring noises.

whhhhhzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrzrrzrzrzrrz!

Also, the blurb on the back explains about the hero fighting '...with the help of a massive black man'

― Mestema (davidcorp), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 16:05 (twenty years ago)

'Yawn' sez a great movie is boring HAHAHAHA

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 3 January 2006 16:12 (twenty years ago)

omg Stalker! I'm a massive Tarkovsky fan and yet.. and yet.. man, that thing really kind of drags on. I saw it a second time just to be sure.

this Tarkovsky site has a neat archive of posters around the world for his films. I like the Japanese one for Stalker. the Finnish one looks like Bergman, the Belgian poster is a crime novel cover, East Germany gets the socialist poster art treatment, Italy it looks like a horror film..

Alex saw that Milton. He liked it. I will see it soon.

Have you seen anything by Carlos Reygadas? I was watching Japon last might and thought that you would like it.

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 19:30 (twenty years ago)

no, is battle in heaven still playing tomorrow-ish somewheres? I'll look to rent Japon.

I want to come to kyle's thing but I'm sorta bound to go to the flössin / blevin show. When's the tactile dome planned?

― milton parker (Jon L), Friday, 17 February 2006 19:53 (twenty years ago)

Battle In Heaven is sold out at YBCA.

Tactile Dome was only hypothetical. I don't think I can take it.

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 20:51 (twenty years ago)

tactile dome is actually a friendly place, a normally claustrophobic friend of mine gave it good reviews. it's too fuzzy in there to be scared.

― milton parker (Jon L), Friday, 17 February 2006 21:09 (twenty years ago)

i saw some ~thillers~

The Woman

- this felt like a decent film ruined in the cutting room; soundtrack possibly worse than the crow ost.

A Lonely Place to Die
Kill List
The Veteran
The Dead

- really enjoying these new uk genre movie vibes. none of these made any sense, but they made up for in viciousness, or nightmarish atmosphere, or both (kill list).

The Yellow Sea

- hong-jin na quickly approaching all-time status imo.

watched: robert siodmaks' menschen am sontag (1930) — his first film, with a script written by a very young billy wilder. naturalistic acting by non-professional actors, gentle humor and beautiful sunlit scenery. 4/5

cant believe i hadn't ever watched easy rider or head before-- so great

― ⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 5 January 2012 20:46 (fourteen years ago)

Head is just a good movie full stop

This is not as much a 'good' movie but I'm definitely glad I saw it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Freedom

need to see more lubitsch

just watched: loulou (maurice pialat, 1980) — isabelle huppert and a hunky gerard d. seems to be about unconventional relationships, one's expectations clashing with another's. realistic acting, frank eroticism. very nice.

― tanuki, Friday, 6 January 2012 04:47 (fourteen years ago)

just heard: lulu — metallica and a hunky lou r. seems to be about unconventional relationships, one's expectations clashing with another's. realistic acting, frank eroticism. very nice.

chantal akerman: the new york films (early experimental shorts) — studies of space and movement that seem like studies for "jeanne dielman"
birth (glazer) - expected to hate this after reading about the premise but found it pretty affecting
playtime - 2nd viewing, looked amazing on a decent hdtv. noticed lot of hidden gags i hadn't noticed before.
