Homeland. Don't know who the baddy is yet but feel sure it will be one of the British actors...

If you've not seen it already, I'd recommend Das Kabinett des Doktor Caligari. :tup:

Watching an 80s film on Netflix called, Brain Damage. It's only started and already the cheese is clogging my arteries. As if the second rate synth music didn't give it away in the opening. There's also some ham with that cheese. Christ the acting is bad.

Definitely watching all of this. :lol:

Flash Gordon. I first saw it when I was 7. Definitely in the "so bad, it's good" category. :teef:

Hey, for us grade school boys in 1980, that was some good clean fun. :tup:

And with all due respect to Queen, their music was always a bit high on the cheese-o-meter. Doing the score for that movie was just a spike on the meter.

Gonna take a minor break from my excursion into German expressionism — I've got two books to read over the weekend — then I'll return with either Nosferatu or The Last Laugh. (And maybe Sunrise, though that isn't technically German, I've been dying to watch it since Bella suggested it. And I'll probably slip something modern in there somewhere, maybe Ponette.)

I was just tweaking the preferences of my Netflix account and checked the box for "Often watches movies about dysfunctional families". Not sure what that means. I also noticed two separate categories for Karate and Kung Fu movies. Not sure most people would recognize the difference.

Danke. Yes, I added it a day or two ago when I got around to looking up its specifics. But thank you for the suggestion. It's most appreciated.

The Beguiled. A really great film. :tup:

Along with Play Misty For Me, I think those are the only two films of his I really like.
