I wouldn't accuse Decoder of being first rate, but it's certainly entertaining if you appreciate sleazy low budget sci-fi movies from the 80s. Excellent music/soundtrack though, and some scenes are very intense.

Kamikaze '89 with Fassbinder is great too. It's like a West German less-than-serious Blade Runner. Cyber-punk. It was Fassbinder's last movie; his fingers are nicotine-stained yellow and everything was catching up to him. Edgar Froese's score is 10/10.

Ryan Leach his outfits are fab

Gimmie Sopor

peeblood I just watched Der Fan finally and it blew my fricken mind! The main girl is a real vibe.

Holy macaroni! I had trouble getting to sleep last night, so I watched Der Fan. Gave me the same what the fuck-feeling as the Dutch movie The Vanishing and I can't stop thinking about it. Without a doubt one of the best films I have seen this year. Also have to re-evaluate my feelings about Rheingold, for reasons unknown I always wrote them off as a lightweight, but the OST is top notch.

Food poisoning wasn't enough suffering for me so I decided to watch Joker: Folie A Deux. I figured it would be bad but at least good for a laugh. I was wrong. They managed to make an insanely boring court drama musical with a guy in clown make up.

Gimmie Sopor Yesterday I watched Ben Wheatley's The Sightseers

Just watched this. Wow.

Anyone else watch Let's Start a Cult? Very dumb, but I liked it. Trying to go for a Sandler/Farley golden era comedy feel but within an indie framework. I suppose you have to like Stavros Halkias a lot for it to work at all. It's the perfect example of a movie that was a 5/10 but I also liked it. The last throwaway joke killed me.

Last Friday the “illegal” re-master of THE PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE followed by an in-person Q&A with national treasure Paul Williams was peak movie-going.

Man I went and saw Phantom at the Clinton a few weeks backs then saw this was happening. Meant to put it in my calendar but forgot.

Roger Corman’s Not Of This Earth

Wade T Oberlin Legendary. Even matched the interior of his Mercedes.

I saw "I'm Still Here" in the theater today. About the Brazilian military dictatorship disappearing a dissident in 1970. Based on true story. Especially terrifying in the current political context. Killer, killer soundtrack, as you could guess.

Clearing my Sunday schedule to watch Tomata du Plenty's scifi musical:

Al Dorado

Saw the Dylan movie a week ago. It was fine. I'm kind of over slick musician biopics. At least it was at the small fancy theater that sells beer and taro gelato. The Brutalist is playing there now so think we're gonna check that out next.

BARELY HUMAN

Gimmie Sopor If you're looking for a legit '80s arthouse punk movie, check out the German dystopian sci-fi flick Decoder on YouTube. Featuring Einstürzende Neubauten's F.M. Einheit as an anti-hero noise musician and prominent counterculture figures such as William S. Burroughs and Genesis P-Orridge in supporting roles.

this look's sick! will add it to my list... on the topic of German sci-fi's, watched World on a Wire recently, a made-for-TV two parter by Fassbinder about a simulation model that gets outta control, proto-Matrix stuff that i'm surprised i'd never heard of til my partner told me about it -- it ruled!

Love World on a Wire. I'm generally not too big on sci-fi stuff but have a soft spot for the lower-tech projects. Went on a Fassbinder binge a couple years ago and that was a definite highlight, alongside Lola and Fox and His Friends.

Seeing this at my local theater next month. Looks dignified.

Randall

Nathan Loud looking for a date?

Hadn't seen Planet Terror by Robert Rodriguez in ages, watched is yesterday and had a good time, even if it was a bit slower than what I remembered.

Randall

Nathan Loud where is it playing?
