So I wanted to see MASH again.

Title:	MASH
Director:	Robert Altman
Score:	4/6
Biggest surprise:	Draal.

Mad Max meets Short Circuit meets spaghetti westerns for the new millenium.  Why does everybody hate it?  It’s fine!

Title:	Young Ones
Director:	Jake Paltrow
Score:	3/6
Water:	It’s the water of life.

Well that was fun.  Lots of vomiting, good ending, even a little boobage.  Plusses all around.

Title:	Taxidermia
Director:	György Pálfi
Score:	5/6
Priceless moment:	The cock-pecker-pecking incident.

I’m sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.  I think it was like a black-and-white version of The Blob?

Title:	Quatermass II
Director:	Val Guest
Score:	3/6
Bonus:	I’m giving it an extra point in case it’s my fault..

Not the worst waste of time I’ve ever had.

Title:	All Together Now
Director:	Jonathan Glazer
Score:	3/6
Crush:	Whoever was playing John’s mum.

Disturbing. And sexy.

Title:	Under the Skin
Director:	Jonathan Glazer
Score:	5/6
Actor confusion:	Cured!

Proper, actual science fiction, for once.

Title:	Transcendence
Director:	Wally Pfister
Score:	4/6
Actor confusion:	I thought Evelyn was Scarlett Johansson for a full hour.

Jamelicious. What do you prefer?  Jam or marmelade?  Marmelicious.  I like jam.  But not apple jam.  Not beatle jam either. I almost never have jam.  I like ham.

Title:	Let it Be
Director:	Michael Lindsay-Hogg
Score:	3/5
Best song:	Mmmm… Hammm…

I’m making it official: There’s No 666 In Outer Space by Hella is the greatest album ever made. What The Strokes would sound like if they were put in a blender with Captain Beefheart.  Get it at Bandcamp.  

 

Title:	X-Men: Days of Future Past
Director:	Bryan Singer
Score:	5/6
Coolest superhero:	Quicksilver

I was expecting a horrible zombie film, but this is a non-horrible western (with zombies (and irishmen)).

It’s not good, but not horrible either.

 

Title:	Survival of the Dead
Director:	George Romero
Score:	3/5
Summary:	See below

In 2014 money.
