Current Musical Selection: Tool - Die Eier Von Satan



oh my friends.


this was probably the worst weekend in history. for once i get a 3 day pass... and im sick. for all of it. ear infections are no fun. nor are crippling, pain induced spasms and loss of equilibrium. that being said. i promptly pissed on the bathroom floor [missing the toilet] fell into the bathtub. stumbled going into the living room, then fell into my chair, breaking it. i wish i could say i was heroic and save a maiden in distress.... or was atleast wasted off my ass. no such luck. just was so screwed up i couldnt stand up or walk. then i blacked out for several hours. mix and repeat generously, and that was my weekend.

so then i dug out some dvds.

i watched Suicide Kings for the first time. its not that bad. the first few minutes had me thinking it would be a totally different [and better!] movie than it turned out to be. but it was worth the 4 bucks i got it for at wallmart. the no name actors, plus jay mohr and christopher walken make up the cast... i hate jay mohr. his acting is just like he is in person. walken saves more of the movie than he should. dennis leary is, again, just like he is in person doing standup, which didnt fit well... but i loved him as a hit man in this. yet, its a who dunnit movie. just from a screwed up angle. it tries to have a message. but in the end, everyone is paint on the cement when walken is done with them. its worth a rent, .... on night where there isnt much else to get; or your list is pretty well exhausted with out of stocks. not a bad movie. but not a top tier.

Black Fist folks was my winner! 80 minutes of pure shit. blaxsploitation film genre filmed in the mid 1970s... richard lawson as a street fighter recruited by the mob to fight for money... dabney coleman as a crooked cop on the take, trying to stop the pure black man from making his dreams come true, and ofcourse, we have hte mob. i spent 2 hours coming up with that plot. its more effort than the director an writters spent on it. its a shit bomb in the porcelain kids, but this one is still twitchin' . its three shitty movies in one. first its like watching someone play street fighter on nintendo, in 70s clothing, with less plot interaction; then it becomes a terrible mob movie; doing what the godfather could not [ie - SUCK MAJOR ASS], then its also part of a vendetta movie like [Payback with mel gibson], just done shitty as possible. the movie left me in tears from hysteria. litterally. i shut the movie off to gain composure so i wouldnt miss stuff. turns out it did no good. the film just skips around making no sense. the end is possibly the worst ive ever seen in a movie. the film making is terrible. every fight has 3 camera angles which are randomly switched between. fake blood abounds. everyone has to get mutilated some how. and many of our favorite stereotypes are always at work in this movie...

never trust cops.

the mob is always the one that puts bombs in peoples cars.

black people always aspire to have a life of education, travel, and owning a disco club.

mob underbosses know karate when they need it.

best friends always die by the mob hits.

black men having relationships with 2 black women isnt wrong, but a white man having one with ONE of THOSE black women IS wrong.

football helmet afros really were in style for some reason.

more plaid pants make more colorful shots.

middle aged women love to pay to see illegal black street fights.

.

aside from that, its got creative [read: very poor ] camear angles, tons of ingenious [read: forgettable if used] scripting, and a timeless [read: less time spent on] plot line. the bottom line is. if you like to see a Brother beatin' back whitey and the man, and dont care about how much sense it needs to make, or even if the Brother does a very good job of it...... then this movie is for you! come over, ill be happy to play this one! A+ 2 boob shots, cameras centered and waiting for them.... many fights.... lots of "honkey and jive-nigguh" lingo.... nifty outfits... a 7 minute pointless scene at a disco.... a mexican getting beat up by the mob AND the brother... and other assorted gems. come see Fightin' Leroy Fisk... in ....................
