[QUOTE=XandertheWise;6791619]on Netflix right now, I'm watching Conan the Destroyer even though I've seen it a gazillion times before already[/QUOTE]
Got a big soft spot for that movie. You've got Grace Jones, Wilt Chamberlain, a great wizard battle, Olivia D'Abo, and to top it off Ursula herself as the evil queen. I'd see it in theatres if I could. Just take my money!

Abigail. Loved it, I also liked the previous comedy horror vampire movie, Renfield (I missed The Last Voyage of the Demeter which I assume is not comedic at all). Too bad it seems to be flopping like those movies but vampire movies in general look like box office poison now, years removed from the bestsellers adapting Interview with the Vampire and Twilight movies that had hot stars (not that Abigail doesn't have a little for everyone with the likes of Melissa Barrera, Kathryn Newton and Giancarlo Esposito). But even 30 Days of Night in 2007 only seemed to become a small hit. I hope Abigail becomes a hit at least in streaming.

[QUOTE=Captain Craig;6791629]I just went and looked this up on IMDB which has the trailer. It is from 1992, but Sue Price isn't listed in the credits. Is this the wrong [URL="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107668/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_Nemesis"]Nemesis [/URL]film? [URL="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0697169/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_1_nm_7_q_Sue%2520Price"]Sue Price[/URL] is listed in the sequels 2-5.
There is strong imagery that invokes 1999s [B]Matrix[/B]. Then it also borrows from [B]Terminator[/B](which borrowed from [I]Westworld[/I]) and elements of [B]Robocop[/B](which [B]Universal Soldier[/B] did as well, also 1992 release).[/QUOTE]
Ups, my fault. Sue Price came later, yes. She had an incredible physic. I just loved to see her run around almost naked and see those muscles work. That alone was worth watching Nemesis.

BoyKillsWorld---7 out of 10
Good action. Good story. Good laughs. Excessive blood and gore. Kept me entertained the whole time. [spoil]Nice little twist at the end I did not see coming. Not the sister but the mother. I figured out the Sister right away, but the mother and shaman had me all "oh s#!t" but they set it up nicely. [/spoil]
The trailers beforehand showed a lot of movies that are coming out this summer that are chocked full of blood and gore. So if you like that, this is the summer for you!

[B]Sounder[/B] ( 1972 ) directed by Martin Ritt. Starring Cicely Tyson, Paul Winfield and Kevin Hooks. Quiet story about a family of black sharecroppers in the 30's. They fall on uncertain times after an incident involving the father. The oldest son struggles to understand his place in the world.
Well acted by the leads, and nicely shot. The movie takes a leisurely when is comes to the plot, but it never seems boring. Heartwarming and charming.

Monkey Man (2024)
Its a fun flick
-
Rebel Moon Part 2
Its one big action scene. I didnt expect much and got a great Sci-Fi battle. The rest is meh.
The Creator on Disney
It made me think for a while. Not a very good movie but the CGI is good and yeah its at least a bit thought provoking.

[B]Nightcrawler (2014)[/B]
Louis Bloom is a terrifying villain, he got away with endangering multiple people to gain his wealth.
My favorite characters are the detective who knows he's bad, and the guy in the editing room telling his footage is illegal.

[b]Anaconda[/b] - I had not seen this since it came out in 1997 (damn that's a long time) but I listen to this podcast called 'How did this get made?' and they talk about this movie which made me nostalgic to see it after all this time, my opinion hasn't changed it's still a dumb movie with bad 90's CGI.
-
[B]Le Samourai[/B] ( 1967 ) directed by Jean-Pierre Melville. Starring Alain Delon. A lonely hitman in France tries to stay one step ahead of the police and the mob after an assassination is compromised by a potential witness. Heavy on mood and atmosphere, light on plot. I wasn't as swept up as I wanted to be but it's definitely a well made film. It's not hard to see how it's been an influence of a dozen later movies.
