Ponderous Personal Projects

I really wanted to be the one that said “Hang on?  Why does everybody hate this movie?”

I think everybody should see 200 Motels at least once before they die. It’s even on the youtube now…

 

Title:	200 Motels
Director:	Frank Zappa
Score:	6/6

My six-year-old says it’s a girlie-film, but I think he secretly liked it anyway.

Title:	Frozen
Director:	Buck / Lee
Score:	Officially 0/6
Dad says:	Music: too ESC.

The greatest heist movie ever. A bit of a cheat, really, as Cul-de-sac is one of my all time favourite movies. Most heist-films focus on the planning and execution of the big heist.  Cul-de-sac picks up after the heisters have gotten away, and shows us while you may think the answer is money, and freedom, the question is people, and eggs.

Interrestingly, I believe this marks Donald Pleasence’s first apparance in the year of film 2014.  Strange… You rock, Donny!

Title:	Cul-de-sac
Director:	Roman Polanski
Score:	6/6
Eggs:	I like eggs…

Cannibal horror is back!

Title:	The Colony
Director:	Jeff Renfroe

Not bad, but I fear time has slightly run away from it.  Feels like they’ve filmed a radio script. Bla bla bla bla bla bla. 

Title:	The Quatermass Xperiment
Director:	Val Guest
Score:	3/6
Tediusness:	Moderate.

Grrrussel Crowe!

I know, I know…..

Title:	Cinderella Man

The Great Depression:	It sucked. Also, this film gives me one.

Fun, in a movie-nerdy way.

Title:	Colour Me Kubrick
Director:	Brian W. Cook
Score:	4/6
Embarrassment level:	High.

Not really a movie, but I’m making it count.  Because I wanted to watch it.  So there.

Title:	Klondike
Director:	Simon Cellan Jones
Score:	6/10
Weirdness:	A mountie who never once said “eh”.
