Bad Movie Night
Don't Open Till Christmas mercifully isn't about some Santa Claus that goes around killing people. It's about someone going around killing Santa Claus'. Switcheroo! BleedingSkull.com says:
"Witness dubbed lines that appear without mouth movement. Cringe at the cheese-spook score, popping up every five seconds, regardless of what’s transpiring onscreen. Scratch your head at the bicycle riding Santa, fumbling around some kind of wax museum in a drunken stupor for nearly ten minutes"
Here's director of Shaun of the Dead Edgar Wright's comment on Don't movies:
We already watched Don't Go Into The Woods... Alone! which I DON'T remember too well but it's by the guy who did past BMN movie The Executioner, Part II , which I loved, and future BMN movie Lady Street Fighter, which I also love! We will soon watch Don't Panic a movie out of Mexico City.
I'm glad I brought up Mexico City. Santa Claus comes from that same city and as you might expect from all the UFO visitations and drug kidnappings the inhabitants of that city have become a little nutty. Bleeding Skull again:
"I hereby proclaim this seasonal nightmare required feel-good viewing once a year, every year. Just don’t show it to any little kids."
Note that we're not really watching the movie but the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode with this movie that just came out a couple of weeks ago. With limited time only Tom Servo figure! No, I haven't played with it. Much.
Here's what happed last week:

Beans from another planet???
ReplyDeleteLMP, what do beans have to do with insurance claims anyway?
ReplyDeleteI think we need to have a night where we run through the piles of movies and watch clips... hmmm... maybe we should start to note the defining moments while we watch them so it would be easier to do so in the future.
ReplyDeleteI think YouTube has done half that job already. We could have a night at your house very slowly typing in YT searches.
ReplyDeleteT-H-E P-I-T.
Don't you think you might be blowing your Christmas movie load on BMN? Is there going to be anything left for Bloody Mary Christmas?
ReplyDeleteThat is a concern of mine. It would have been fun to save MST3K's Santa Claus for then. The enjoyment of my guests comes before me having a merry Christmas though.
ReplyDeleteI have stuff planned!
