tongue_tied_danny Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 The Big Bus Corny spoof disaster flick from the 70s about a nuclear powered bus that runs into difficulties on its maiden journey. A bit of a guilty pleasure this one. It's utter shite but enjoyable all the same. Airplane did the spoof disaster thing about a thousand time better a couple of years later. 6/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that that's the intention and as brilliant a film as it is, I didn't enjoy that horrible anxiousness. 8.5/10 Never watching it again. I was the same just felt heavy stressed for the entire runtime. Great ending though, felt cathartic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverton End Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Lore (2012) A German movie, set at the end of WWII, a high-ranking nazi & his wife desert their 5 kids as the Allies close in on them. The eldest girl (Lore) tries to lead her young siblings, from the Black Forest, to her Grandma's up north in Hamburg, as Germany crumbles around them. Pretty brutal at times, it's a lesser seen side of the WWII movie genre. As well as being a hard hitting drama, it's also a coming of age movie, that stays with you long after the ending. Brilliant film. Film4 have been showing it. 9/10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Brightside Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 The Terminator (1984) 9/10 One of my favorite movies of all time and one of the first films I owned growing up. I know most movie fans seem to prefer T2: Judgement Day, but the dark 80s atmosphere of T1 is amazing. More like a slasher film lol The first Terminator is 100% a horror film. And it's great for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Eat My Dust Hi-octane thrills in this Roger Corman B movie from the 70s. A youthful Ron Howard stars as a gormless teenager, who steals a racing car to impress some burd. This film is about as low brow as it gets. Badly dated pish. 4/10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I actually love that film, and it might be my favourite of the franchise. Maybe just behind the original. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Robocop (1987).8/10A great wee film. It's far more political than i remember when i was wee - but just as gory. The scene with toxic waste gave me nightmares.The adverts and news clips peppered throughout are brilliant too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will flop and nobody will remember that I did it". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Followed up with "Say cheese and die, again". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 You Were Never Really Here. I might need to give this another shot as it gets great reviews and I'm really tired, but just finished watching this and I thought it was total pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
