I also liked how many Jodorowskys were involved in the film. Made it seem like a bit of a family project. Looking forward to El Topo / Holy Mountain!

Yeah, I had way more laughs than anything related to spooks. I jumped one time towards the end, and I knew it was coming. XD

I noticed all the Jodorowsky's also, I thought that was neat too.

When the giant snake came out I literally said "He thinks he's got a big trouser snake" haha.

It wasn't bad at all. I wouldn't have called it a horror movie at all though.

El Topo first, Holy Mountain second I believe...

i love Save The Green Planet :)

i finally watched this last night

http://www.brixpicks.com/wp-content/...nia+poster.jpg

a couple of friends of mine have been wanting me to watch this for some time now and my only reaction is.....wow

a fairly well done documentary about the White family of West Virginia...starting off as....what i would call a "look at how cool it is to be bad" and then they start crushing up pills and snorting them in front of their protesting 85 year old mother on her birthday.....thus twisting my reaction to somewhat sad that i'm a part of the same race (human) as these idiots

if you can enjoy and laugh at a roller coaster of stupidity and possibly see the anthropological concepts portrayed by the film makers....it is well worth watching

a screen shot that somewhat sums up the film

*there are subtitles during this part due to her unbelievable accent and probable on the breech of overdose

I watched Signs again last night with my sister. I was only planning to watch an hour or so, but I had forgotten how much I enjoy that movie. Pretty much my favourite blockbuster/thriller film, 'twas a good watch.

I plan to watch Russian Ark tonight, and cannot wait, I hear it's great.

I just finished Santa Sangre, from Alejandro Jodorowsky. It was okay. Not what I was expecting at all. I liked where it ended up but really didn't like how the movie paced for the first 75%.

I'm typing this from a hotel lobby in Taipei. Santa Sangre is a sort of halfway house bettween arhouse and horror. loved it

Started watching this last night but I fell asleep halfway through. I think it's always interesting to see the other side of the story and this is no exception. The dude who plays Hitler really nails it.
For now, 9/10. I'm gonna go finish this movie right now and I'll revise my score if necessary.

Definitively finish it. The ending is what makes that film for me, it's the only part i vividly remember, because(SPOILERS)
he's doing some crazy drugs or something with his lady before he dies.

Highly underrated and highly exceptional Coen brothers movie. This oen is up there in my top five of their films. They really are just flat out amazing filmmakers.

9/10

Good old sci-fi fun but definitely not a great film.

6/10

I love Miller's Crossing so much. It's definitely been overshadowed by the other Coen films such as the Big Lebowski, Fargo, etc. A Serious Man is one of their greater feats that was robbed from any favourable limelight IMO.

A film like A Serious Man would never be in the spotlight. It's just not made for it.

Having said that, I love both A Serious Man and Miller's Crossing.
