Cheapskate! CHEAPSKATE!

Yes, this title is a pun on two previous Twitch-O-Meters ( this one and this one ). We all know and love stories about fledgling filmmakers scraping together the tiniest of budgets and managing to create an intriguing, sometimes even phenomenally successful movie with it. John Carpenter worked wonders with "Dark Star" and "The Assault of Precinct 13" on a tiny budget. Even the...

Black Thought: "The Professional" (MP3 - Download)

Word is that this Black Thought track appeared on a mixtape from several years ago that never really saw the light of day. Until now. "The Professional," a never-before-heard cut by the Roots frontman, features Black Thought spitting with his trademark tenacity and ultimate breath control. The grimy, almost-gloomy beat ain't too shabby either, mostly thanks to the John Carpenter-ish synths....

‘Mad Men’ Writer to Have a ‘Fright Night’

As much as critics and movie fans seem to hate on remakes and reboots, you have to admit that a lot can be done with a remake in talented hands. Examples of this extend back to John Carpenter’s work on The Thing to David Cronenberg’s The Fly. It’s possible. It can be done right. Which is [...]

LIFF '09: LA HORDE review

It's always frustrating to see a director missing the point. Manly and self-righteous though most of eighties action cinema was, the best films of the decade gave the audience both ludicrously violent wish-fulfilment and a genuine sense of gleefully adolescent hero-worship. Few viewers could seriously believe they actually were Arnie, or Sly, or Dolph but many wanted to be, dispensing gruesomely inventive...

Big Trouble in Little China

John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Little China (1986) is an enjoyable mash-up of classic Westerns, Saturday-morning serials, and Chinese wuxia than any of the Indiana Jones movies, with Kurt Russell in full bloom as Carpenter's de rigueur hard-drinkin', hard-gamblin', wise-crackin' loner...

A Field Guide to Horror Movie Jerks

I've talked alot about jerks here at Final Girl. Usually I'm referring to people who disagree with my opinions or don't like the things I like or something- you know, Paul Reiser fans and the such. After all, this is The Internet, and therefore anyone who doesn't think exactly as I do is a jerk. Today, however, I want to focus on horror movie jerks. I've talked about those in the past as well, but...

Dark Star

Dark Star is a 1974 science fiction/comedy film, the first feature film of John Carpenter . At about 21 minutes in there's a delightful little musical instrument. This is the 2nd science fiction film I can remember seeing that includes surfing in the plot. Watch it online: Moria gives it 4 stars and says, "The film has this sense of deadpan humour that just sits there and keeps building to the...

An insatiable thirst for vampire stories is telling of our times

From Courier Mail AU THEY have stalked us for centuries, the night creatures preying on the blood of the living, beings once like us but who now crave only breathing, bleeding flesh. They are the whispered tales of unspeakable things of ancient myth, the dark and brooding monsters of folklore who feast upon us. In popular culture they are the 19th-century vampires of Bram Stoker's Dracula, from the...

Even when they're being nice...

The Sun today carried a story about the five British soldiers . There's nothing controversial about it. It just an article about the soldiers and some of the relatives that have to pick up the pieces after losing a loved one. But even when The Sun is being nice and sensitive it still can't help but have a little dig. One of the soldiers, Warrant Officer Darren Chant, was expecting to become a father...

Memo to Michael Bay: GI JOE KICKS YOUR ASS!

Superheroes with toy franchise tie-ins get a lot of heat... unless critics had a real lively sense of humor they trashed both TRANSFORMERS (as well as WOLVERINE, TERMINATOR SALVATION, etc.) but GI JOE: RISE OF THE COBRA does everything right. AND it gets a lot less things wrong. One can only hope the Michael Bays, Brett Ratners and McGs pay attention when watching JOE (though its director, Stephen...
