Watch it – Ponderous Personal Projects

Color Me Blood Red [1965]

Color Me Blood Red
Herschell Gordon Lewis
4/6

Unexpectedly funny. And bonus point for great music.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
Bob Persichetti / Peter Ramsey / Rodney Rothman
6/6

Best super-hero movie ever.

Desperate Living
John Waters
6/6

The most beautiful movie ever made marks the start of this rewatch of all things Waters, in semi-random order.

Sound of Noise
Ola Simonsson / Johannes Stjärne Nilsson
6/6

Attraction
Fedor Bondarchuk
5/7

IMDB gave this 5.5. They’re wrong.

These Final Hours
Zak Hilditch
5/6

A comet just struck our little blue planet, and everyone will be dead in twelve hours. I think this is exactly how the end would go down.

Foreign Correspondent
Alfred Hitchcock
4/5

Still in America, so it’s still pushing two hours. Successfully this time around.

Spotted: yes!

Shrek Retold
Grant Duffrin

I don’t know what to say.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Steven Spielberg
3/6

Really bad special effects, that make absolutely no geometric sense. Still much better than I remembered. The kid’s got warped dice.

Tim’s Vermeer
Penn & Teller
6/6

A movie about a guy with a crazy idea, a big cache of cash and too much time on his hands.
