Flatliners. 1990. Keifer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, William Baldwin, Kevin Bacon and Oliver Platt play the medical students who decide to see whats there in the afterlife. What starts as a manic experiment leads to masculinity with betting each other on who can stay dead the longest and be brought back but inadvertently end up bringing with them a sin of their past. This is the first time watching this in...so many years and forgot how Joel Schumacher managed to create such a dark toned gothic style thriller. You go into the unknown to find answers that you seek and something else comes back to basically haunt or torment you. First time I watched it and never really gave this much thought but now I actually enjoyed it. p_800x1200_Flatliners1990_EN_111117.jpg

Friday The 13th: A New Beginning (1985, Danny Steinman) Having never seen this one, I felt I had to after all this time. Sometimes dead is betterer. Jason targets a halfway house for teens with issues. Laugh riot surely? Well ... Time has passed as Tommy Jarvis is now in his 20s, who is being transported to a new facility as we open. Haunted by the hockey mask some what, he better not look behind him then ... I know Paramount had a downer on their slasher stepchild, but come on ffs , poorly written characters, no main focal point and the usuallly brutally shorn kills. And then .... I sort of sat up at that revelation. What affrontery on their part. The chap from Return Of The Living Dead was fun for all that.

National Lampoon's Ratko: The Dictator's Son (2009) A stupid gross out comedy about the son of the tyrant leader of fake eastern European country Hanjobia who is enrolled at (and takes over) an American college where he instantly falls for student activist Katrina Bowden (Who wouldn't?). Silly and crude, last night was my second viewing of this and it just about wobbles along on some fun performances - Efren Ramirez is a likable fella despite having let's say different morals to the rest of his campus - and one or two laugh out loud moments. The college 'skanks' (Their words, not mine) had me in tears of laughter. Adam West has no shame as the dictator in question and it's worth looking out for former Doctor Who companion Yee Jee Tso, who at age 35 plays one of the students. It has to be said that Sacha Baron Cohen does this kind of thing so much better in The Dictator (2012) but i also kinda' like this. |
