I would be 88 years old by the time I finished watching it. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | I'm watching a movie starring Jane Fonda (who Mission has never heard of) where Jim Backus, (Mr Howell from Giligan's Island) is playing Mr Drysdale (but not the one from Beverly Hillbillies), and the plot is where several characters are playing someone other than who they are. Also, reminds me, Tina Louis (Ginger from Gilligan's Island) recently said the sexist actor on Giligan's island was actually Jim Backus, not the professor. (Russell Johnson) Trivia, what was the professor's character's name? What was the skipper's character's name? And how many episodes were their names mentioned? (this last part is the super duper bonus question) You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | Titante got a recommendation as the most F...d up movie ever made. 'Causing people to faint or walk out. That always sells some tickets. One thing I think is interesting. Had a female director. I can't remember any super messed up films by female directors. At least not one to the nth degree.

I don't know how to qualify, "Messed up," but did people not consider Pet Sematary scary at the time? I thought the old woman who could move really fast was a little creepy, but most horror movies are laughable regardless of the director's gender.

Most of my scariest experiences have nothing to do with the supernatural or gore. One time I was climbing these small cliffs (mostly rock) and a couple of us had gone into a depression in the side. It was about 40ft up, and one of the other kids gave me a light shove from behind as I was sitting near the edge. Scared the hell out of me.

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 189 Posts: 18762 | I watched the original "Nightmare Alley" this week. Based on what I've seen of the trailers. the remake is pretty close to the original. I think it's one of those films which is better not spoiled, so if you plan to see it, I wouldn't read up on it or watch the earlier one. I can't think of any whizbang action or special effects which might make you want to watch besides the plot, so that's why I think it's best not spoil it.

My Cousin Vinny actually made more money than Joe Pesci's more iconic roles in Goodfellas and Casino Mar 13, 1992 My Cousin Vinny Sep 19, 1990 Goodfellas Nov 22, 1995 Casino My Cousin Vinny was one of the big comedies of 1992, albeit way behind Sister Act and Wayne's World.
