Ghost flick for Day 2 of #scarymoviemonth
THE DEAD THING 2024
Elric Kane

It takes real longing for connection to fall for a ghost. Sexy, subtle, with menace and reckless abandon. Intriguing debut. Loved the score, too!

Really enjoy this. Johnny and Al's dynamic is quite strong, as is Johnny and Anne's. Performances def make this one, but also, there's scenes like fugetaboutit. Huge fan if the book too

#Junesploitation Day 29 #80sAction!

SOUTHERN COMFORT 1981
Walter Hill

Solid example of #Namsploitation disguised as #Hixploitation, which is eons better than the movie I watched for that category during Junesploitation 2023 (1990's godawful Ragin Cajun)

Finally getting to this Coppola produced, Bukowski written piece of arthouse Golan & Globus. Here's how it started and how it ended.

SEX WITH A SMILE 1976

#Junesploitation Day 25: Wings Hauser Tribute!

L.A. BOUNTY (1989)

In his first scene, Wings says we have imaginations to entertain God by doing the unexpected. That must be the artistic statement of this film. I don't know about God, but I was certainly entertained by its inexhaustible creativity.

#SybilDanning should've played a female Terminator, just incredible. While we're at it, Wings could've played the Joker in a mid 80s low-budget Batman flick!

Really dug this warrior out of time flick that reminded me of maybe a combo of Demolition Man, Miike's Izo, & Frank Miller's Ronin by way of #goldenharvest

It appears they filmed most of the film at UCLA, so that could account for that foreign film poster as well. Would be interested to know the actual connection.

TAG: THE ASSASSINATION GAME 1982

Robert Carradine holds over his Sam Fuller bit from Big Red One including cigar chomping & notebooking, plus Linda Hamilton is gorgeous as hell. The Shape even works in slashery elements
