I rated Assault on Precinct 13 (1976) 7/10 #IMDb
Carpenter’s first LA set film, a reimagined Rio Bravo is a masterclass in slow burn tension for the inevitable. The fact that none of the actors went on to more is a shock. Carpenter’s electronic music is 🔥

Frankenstein vs Baragon (1965)
Ishiro Honda (director)
I'm glad I live in a world where there's a movie about a gigantic Frankenstein that fights a gigantic reptile monster.
Haven't seen this one in ages.

Soderbergh and Stamp in revenge noir in sunny LA. over the top Cockney. Peter Fonda sleazy AF Luis Guzman solid. Love the old footage of Stamp from “Poor Cow” by Ken Loach. Also with Barry Newman (Vanishing Point). Solid 7+

I rated Dark Star (1974) 7/10 #IMDb
An influence on ALIEN (same writer) and the isolation of space
parody 2001, with a female not sinister HAL, an alien that’s not happy, and a logical bomb which would have fit in Dr. Strangelove.
Add some strong acid

Not only one of the most enjoyably creepy movies of the millennium, but also one of the most beautifully photographed.

Devon Sawa, at 21yo ish, looking fuckin manic in the snow. His green spiky hair is lopsided, appearing like a jester hat, and his text reads SATAN IS IN THE HOUSE.

Watched Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice; woo boy that's a slice of America at a particular moment. Not sure what I think overall but great costumes and sets, great acting, and good lord! Dyan Cannon. Fun watch #criterionchannel
I rated Hooper (1978) 6/10 #IMDb
Fun salute to stunts and stuntmen directed by Hal Needham with Burt Reynolds, Sally Field, Adam West, James Best and Jan Michael Vincent. If you like stunts, Trans-Ams and 70s Americana think Hollywood Dukes of Hazzard.

How have I never heard of this gem? It is the most eighties movie ever. Explosions, spandex, and video stores.
What an absolute blast.

I can’t believe I waited nearly 3 decades to watch THE BIG HIT
Lou Diamond Philips is giving a performance clearly inspired by Benicio Del Toro in The Usual Suspects because I can’t understand a word being said yet every word is fried magic dipped in gold.

A wonderful double feature. Similar themes, similar age, similar settings, similar struggles.

Classic Hollywood glitz vs mud, shit, biting, boots to faces and uncomfortably legit critter killing. Neither fully capture the #EmilyBronte novel, but make for one hell of a dualistically sweet double feature. #WutheringHeights #CriterionChannel #FilmSky
I turned on The Children’s Hour to watch while puzzling but the movie was so good that I never touched a piece 🤯🧩🎬

Cover of Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator, showing Charlie's iconic hat and moustache. When you turn the cover over you get the same moustache but a different vibe all together.
on deck for tonight, Charlie Chaplin's The Great Dictator, from 1940. Seems relevant.

#CriterionChannel adventures: Started Perfume: The Story Of a Murderer knowing nothing about it. When it got too gross, I wanted the complete opposite as a brain cleanser so settled on The Palm Beach story for some nanners screwball fun and snazzy costumes.
