The Movie Picture Game

[fernandito]

That's right! :)

[Heather19]

I loved that film. I want to go watch it again now.

Here's a new screencap
http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii117/heather10119/Misc/screencap.jpg

[gsvec]

Heathers - one my all time favorite movies!

[Heather19]

Yep you got it!

[gsvec]

So which Heather are YOU, Heather? :evil:

Let's try this one
http://videodetective.com/photos/130/005475_37.jpg

[Heather19]

I'll go with Winona Heather

and were you trying to post a pic because I don't see anything?

[gsvec]

I edited it and used another version of the same pic - can you see it now, Winona?

[Heather19]

yep, i see it, but I don't know it.

[The Lady of Shadows]

oh hey, i know this.

murder in the first.

i :wub: kevin bacon.

[gsvec]

You betcha! Next!

[The Lady of Shadows]

hmmmmmm. well, see. . . :blush: i don't really know how to play this game. i peek in here from time to time to see what it is about and this just happened to be a time when i saw a picture i recognized. so i'm kind of lost. :unsure: do i put a dvd in my computer and capture a screen shot? or am i allowed to go to ::gasp:: imdb and find a screenshot?

or would you just like to post another one and save the newbie the trouble? :lol:

[Girlystevedave]

You can post an image any way you want :)

[Heather19]

I usually just search google for an image from a film, and then just post it up here :couple:

[gsvec]

TS, do Google image search and when you find something you want, click on it. Then at the top of the screen you get there's a thumbnail version of the pic. If you click on THAT pic, it'll take you a screen that's JUST the pic. Use the url from that page to add the image to your post. :D

[The Lady of Shadows]

cool. i didn't know if we could do it that way or if it had to be from movies in our own libraries. i'm off to search now. :D (thanks for the help)

[The Lady of Shadows]

here we go. sorry for the double post.

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame.jpg

[Heather19]

I know this one, I just can't think of the title.
Something with Life in it?
This is going to drive me crazy now.

[gsvec]

My Life Without Me? Didn't see it (somebody told me it was really sappy) - have you, TS? Did you like it?

[The Lady of Shadows]

yes. to both questions. my life without me is the movie. and i thought it was wonderful. but i am a huge fan of sarah polley. :)

[Heather19]

yes, i think that's it (or at least that's the film I was thinking of). I enjoyed it, but it's been ages since I've seen it so I only remember bits and pieces of it.

[Heather19]

I love Sarah Polley too, and I know this is a bit off topic, but have you watched the Avonlea series by any chance?

[The Lady of Shadows]

very sad, very touching, and of course she was amazing as usual. but i might be a little biased. think feev and batman! :lol:




ETA: no, i haven't seen any of that series. is she in it? is it on dvd?

[gsvec]

http://thisdistractedglobe.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/Trouble%20With%20Harry%20Hitchcock%20pic%201%20.jp g

[The Lady of Shadows]

woohoo! another one i know.

the trouble with harry!

[gsvec]

Gotta love Hitchcock :D You're up!

[The Lady of Shadows]

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame4.jpg

[fernandito]

is that Kuno Becker?

[The Lady of Shadows]

is that the name of the movie or the actor?
whichever - it's not the answer, say sorry.

[fernandito]

Kuno Becker = actor.


Damn that looks familiar.

[Heather19]

Sliding Doors maybe?

[The Lady of Shadows]

correct actress, incorrect movie :ninja:

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame4.jpg

[Heather19]

what about Hush?

[The Lady of Shadows]

:clap:

hush it certainly is! the feather is yours my friend.

[Heather19]

http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii117/heather10119/Misc/AB_0104.jpg

[The Lady of Shadows]

american beauty?

[fernandito]

It is.

[Heather19]

Correct!

[The Lady of Shadows]

woohoo! although since i've only seen two movies with her in them (i think) i had a 50/50 shot. :lol:

here's another:

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame3.jpg

[The Lady of Shadows]

do we need a hint? :orely:

[BeDaN]

Is that Malice?

[The Lady of Shadows]

you say true, i say thankya. feather is yours. :)

[BeDaN]

Where's my goose!?

[The Lady of Shadows]

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/CacklingGoose_1944s.jpg

[fernandito]

Post a picture, Bedan.

[BeDaN]

Good Luck

[Rjeso]

Collateral?

[The Lady of Shadows]

i think you're right. :D cause that is jamie foxx for sure.

[Rjeso]

Yeah, for serious, but he has done other movies...

[BeDaN]

Collateral?

Success!

[Rjeso]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/silver_phoenix11/moviestill2.jpg

[BeDaN]

Hmmm, looks like that old Apple commercial. Don't throw it at the screen! lol. But I'm gonna go with "The Wall" ?

[Rjeso]

Nope!

[jayson]

1984

[Rjeso]

Yessir! You're up.

[jayson]

http://i38.tinypic.com/2ql9z6v.png

[Rjeso]

1941?

He was so great in that flick. Classic Belushi.

[jayson]

Correct, it is 1941. Kinda kept the ball rolling on films with dates as titles following your 1984 post.

You are also correct that Belushi was great in it. The film often gets panned or simply ignored when people discuss Spielberg's career, but I think for a pure comedy, it was pretty funny for it's time. I haven't seen it in years so I don't know if it stands up to the test of time or not, but I suspect at least parts of it do.

[Rjeso]

I've seen it recently, and it was still fun. Terrible, but fun. :D

I'll have to post one once I get home.

[Rjeso]

Not difficult, but beloved, LOL.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/silver_phoenix11/6980372_gal.jpg

[Armand St Pierre]

That's Willow.

If ever a wonderful Willow there was the Willow is one because because.....

[Rjeso]

I said it was easy... :P

I just wanted to show some love for Willow.

[The Lady of Shadows]

:cry:

big red Xs just aren't my thing

:cry:

[Armand St Pierre]

It should be fixed now.

[The Lady of Shadows]

at first i thought that was holly hunter but now i'm thinking julia roberts. either way i can't place that movie. ::bangs head against wall::

[Heather19]

Is it Enchanted?

[Armand St Pierre]

You're right!

Your turn...

[Heather19]

http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii117/heather10119/Misc/18818671_w434_h_q80.jpg

[Rjeso]

Finding Neverland

[Heather19]

Correct!

[Rjeso]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v123/silver_phoenix11/ridiculous.jpg

[leaveittobeezer]

This Island Earth ( or MST3K: The Movie)

[Rjeso]

No shadows, so it is This Island Earth. :)

[jayson]

Beat me to that one leavittobeezer. By the way, yours is the greatest signature ever. :thumbsup:

[leaveittobeezer]

sorry bout the delay

[The Lady of Shadows]

it's so tiny. is that alfred molina in identity?

[leaveittobeezer]

indeed it is

[The Lady of Shadows]

damn. totally wasn't expecting that. :cool:

okay, here's one:

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame-1.jpg

[turtlex]

Single White Female ( if that's right.. someone else can take it - I am screen cap impaired )

[The Lady of Shadows]

yes that is correct. what does screen cap impaired mean precisely? :unsure:

[jayson]

yes that is correct. what does screen cap impaired mean precisely? :unsure:

I think it means turtlex cannot post a new picture (cannot perform screen captures) and thus doesn't want the feather even if correct. Of course there are other ways of obtaining still shots from films besides doing a screen cap, but that's up to turtlex.

[turtlex]

yes that is correct. what does screen cap impaired mean precisely? :unsure:

It means I love guessing the film but can never seem to capture a shot to add to the thread.

All I've tried has failed miserably. Advice?

In the interim, turtlesong, you can make another if you kin.

[jayson]

It's not exactly the same as getting the specific shot from the film that you may have in mind via screen capture, but a Google image search for a film will usually yield some screenshots. Often IMDB has still images from a film as well.

Yep, I usually just google a movie I have in mind and find a pic from it, and then post that here.

[The Lady of Shadows]

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame3-1.jpg

[turtlex]

That one is POINT OF NO RETURN .... The American Version of La Femme Nikita.

Um, ... I tried to put up an image, and just ended up with x squares!

[The Lady of Shadows]

you are correct. the feather is yours.

and just out of curiousity, are you trying to host the image from your own computer or are you using photobucket or another image hosting site? also, are you using jpg, or something similar?

[turtlex]

turtlesong - you take the feather and post a pic.

Just using jpg is all.

[Heather19]

turtlesong - you take the feather and post a pic.

Just using jpg is all.

I usually take the picture and upload it to my photobucket account and post that link, however I'm pretty sure there's a way that you can just attach the image to the message, but I've never done that so someone else might have to help you with that, if that's what you're trying to do.

[The Lady of Shadows]

sorry, sorry, sorry.

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk95/turtlesong/moviepicgame5.jpg

[gsvec]

turtlex, if you use Google Images to find a pic, when you click on it you'll get a page with a thumbnail of the pic at the top. Click on that pic, and you get a new page with JUST the pic. You can click on the little image button here and just paste the url from that page to post the pic. :D

[turtlex]

Giving it another shot :

http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/3129/trailercap335hg.jpg

[turtlex]

Yup. That's V for Vendetta ( one of my all time favorite movies ).

Take it !

[jayson]

Wolves of the Calla The Movie (when Callahan jumps out the window)

[leaveittobeezer]

Hudsucker Proxy? (& btw R of G I think I peed myself a little when I read your spoiler :rofl:)

[jayson]

Hudsucker Proxy? (& btw R of G I think I peed myself a little when I read your spoiler :rofl:)

I think you are correct on the film (an excellent one) and sorry about your pants. I couldn't help myself. :evil: Besides, I owed you one as I think your sig is easily the single funniest one I've seen.

[leaveittobeezer]

lol thx & consider us even

[leaveittobeezer]

http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb78/kravecki/Adelstein/Movies/wrigley024.jpg

[RUBE]

So I Married an Axe Murder?

[leaveittobeezer]

nosir

[Heather19]

Rushmore?

[leaveittobeezer]

no maam

[turtlex]

Three days without a guess, we must need a hint !

[leaveittobeezer]

lol sorry forgot about this thread. lemme post another one from the same movie

http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb78/kravecki/Adelstein/Movies/wrigley035.jpg

[leaveittobeezer]

hmm, maybe not as many people have seen this movie as i assumed (it's one of my personal faves)
maybe this'll give it away

http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii133/silpada07/icruelty.jpg

[gsvec]

Shoot...he's a divorce attorney, right? Grrr......

[fernandito]

Intolerable Cruelty?

[RUBE]

The last picture definitely gives it away as Intolerable Cruelty. As for the first picture, I have seen the movie and do not remember that character.

[leaveittobeezer]

yep (& that first pic was Wrigley, Clooney's legal assistant)

[fernandito]

http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l416/feverishparade/nocheatingsucka.jpg

[gsvec]

Death and the Maiden?

[fernandito]

negative.

[turtlex]

Hint perhaps?

[gsvec]

She's too "puffy" for it to be Copycat. :lol:

[turtlex]

At first I thought it was Susan Sarandon, but I'm honestly not sure.

[gsvec]

Isn't it Sigourney Weaver? Hmm...maybe not. :orely:

[turtlex]

I don't think its Weaver, no.

[gsvec]

The more I look at it the more I agree with you, turtlex. Not Weaver. Nope.

[Heather19]

I was thinking it was Susan Sarandon as well, but I haven't got a clue as to the movie.

[fernandito]

Hint : possessed

[leaveittobeezer]

Witches of Eastwick?

[gsvec]

[fernandito]

Second Hint : 3rd Grade Detention

[RUBE]

I was going to guess but then I decided it was a stupid guess... I have no clue.

[turtlex]

Hints : Third Grade Detention and Possessed?

Um.... What Is ... I have no clue.

And I was pretty sure I'd seen every single Susan Sarandon movie, ever.

Are we sure it's even Sarandon?

Edited to add : that is one nasty rope burn

[fernandito]

No, it is not Susan Sarandon.

[fernandito]

Another picture from the same movie :

http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l416/feverishparade/isaidnocheating.jpg

[turtlex]

No, it is not Susan Sarandon.

Whew!
This is actually a relief. I consider myself a huge SS fan, and I was disappointed in myself.

Looking at the other photo....

Um, could it be "Child's Play" ?

[theBeamisHome]

looks like it to me...

[fernandito]

Actually, it's Childs Play 2. :cyclops:

Go for it, turtlex.

[turtlex]

fev - Can you please post another, I'm horrible at it and usually end up posting small boxes with little x's in them :).

[Heather19]

so who is the actress that looks like Susan Sarandon?

[RUBE]

Damn, my "stupid guess" was going to be Child's Play.

[fernandito]

Here's an easy one for yez :

http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l416/feverishparade/picture2.jpg

[Armand St Pierre]

Lethal Weapon 2?

It's a shot in the dark.....really:ninja:

[RUBE]

Predator 2


I am probably not going to check this page again for awhile so someone else post a picture please.

[MrQuint]

[Brice]

Little Nemo?

[MrQuint]

A little tricky ...

http://mag.awn.com/issue9.09/9.09images/life01_LifeAquatic-seahorse.jpg

[Brice]

Is it Little Nemo?

[MrQuint]

nope

[fernandito]

Finding Nemo?

[MrQuint]

double nope ... this one might be too hard.

I'll leave it for a while to see if any Baumbach/Anderson *hint* fans recognize this.

[turtlex]

Thunderbirds?

[Heather19]

The Life Aquatic? or something like that?

[Girlystevedave]

Ooh...I think you might be right

[Heather19]

Thunderbirds?


The Life Aquatic? or something like that?

Bump
What about these 2?

[MrQuint]

Thunderbirds?


The Life Aquatic? or something like that?

Bump
What about these 2?

YES!

Life Aquatic

[Heather19]

here's an easy one
http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii117/heather10119/Misc/untitled-1.jpg

[MrQuint]

Easy says you!

ummm .... Grease?

[Heather19]

nope

[jayson]

Rebel Without a Cause?

[Heather19]

Sure is! You're up

[jayson]

http://i35.tinypic.com/6fobbq.jpg

[turtlex]

Treasure of Sierra Madre

[jayson]

Correct! Good job turtlex :clap:

[turtlex]

We don't need no stinkin'badges!

Give me a few and I'll try to get a photo up.

[turtlex]

Here we go - let's give this one a try :

http://www.alicia-logic.com/capsimages/lh_021TruthLord.jpg

[fernandito]

Dragonheart 2?

[turtlex]

No, sorry.

[fernandito]

Apology accepted. :lol:


Hmm....Robin Hood ? (Kevin Costner)

[turtlex]

:) When I saw you posted - I was thinking "gosh that didnt take fev long at all".

[fernandito]

Yeah, this one is kinda tricky :orely:

[turtlex]

Tis not Robin Hood, either.
And tricky it is - I'm a tricky one.

Frankly it's a miracle the photo showed up at all, usually mine just turn into little boxes with an x in them.

[jayson]

Ladyhawke?

[turtlex]

Ladyhawke?


Yes! Well done, well done.

The feather is yours.

[jayson]

I am very curious to see if anyone gets this one and how quickly...

http://i37.tinypic.com/245ke1l.jpg

[turtlex]

How about a hint, R of G ?

[Armand St Pierre]

Sid and Nancy

[jayson]

Sid and Nancy

Nope. Not a bad guess though.


How about a hint, R of G ?

Ok.. let's see. Would it help if I told you the name of the film is also the name of a band (though not a band that existed at the time of the film)?

Also, my telling Beezer that "Sid & Nancy" was not a bad guess was somewhat of a hint itself.

[Cuthbert Heath]

Its Sunny and Cher

[jayson]

Its Sunny and Cher

Funny, but wrong. :nope:
Also, Sonny & Cher already existed at the time of this film (1982, there's another hint)

[jayson]

I'd say there's a reasonable probability that nobody is going to get this one. If people would prefer, I could post something from another film, one that is more likely to have been seen by someone other than myself. I just happen to have an obsession with a particular musician/actor who appeared in that film so I felt compelled to watch it. Although, it has been on one of the cable movie channels quite often over the last few months so perhaps someone else has seen it. I'm conflicted. :orely:

[gsvec]

Is it The Replacements?

[jayson]

Nope, though it's a good guess based on the hint I gave. :)

[fernandito]

I'm Not There.

[MrQuint]

Smithereens!

[jayson]

No, you're not there. :P

[jayson]

Smithereens!

Correct! Hooray Quint!

[MrQuint]

whooo hoooo

this one's easy .... but it's a cool pic

http://l.yimg.com/img.movies.yahoo.com/ymv/us/img/hv/photo/movie_pix/twentieth_century_fox/the_omen/_group_photos/gregory_peck3.jpg

[gsvec]

The Omen . . . and I agree about the pic. :)

[MrQuint]

Robert and Kathy look so happy ...

[gsvec]

. . . just one happy family :D

Sort of keeping with the theme

http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e73/gsvec/Misc%20Pics/notgonnatellya.jpg

[Heather19]

The Family Stone! I love that film.

Someone else can post a shot since I'm going to be gone for a bit.

[gsvec]

Me, Myself, and Irene?

[Armand St Pierre]

You WIN!

[Girlystevedave]

I win? Sweet!
What's my prize?:cyclops:

Gimme a bit to post one.

[Girlystevedave]

Actually, someone else can have the feather. My brain cannot come up with any ideas at the moment.

[turtlex]

I'll take it if no one minds.

How about this one :

http://wearemoviegeeks.com/wp-content/adventures2.jpg

[jayson]

Adventures in Babysitting

What I always have to remind myself is that that's Vincent D'Onofrio as Thor.

[turtlex]

Very good ! Yup, Adventures In Babysitting.

I love the scene in the Blues Bar - "They Want Me To Sing The Blues"

Take it, R of G !

[jayson]

http://i35.tinypic.com/nna3xf.jpg

[jayson]

Ok, this seems to have stalled out. Let's try another picture from the same movie, and if nobody gets that in a day or two I will try another movie altogether...

http://i33.tinypic.com/av6bz4.jpg

[Woofer]

Rumble Fish?

[jayson]

Correct! Whoo hoo Woofer!

Had to post the first pic because it's Tom Waits, though I thought it might prove difficult.

[Woofer]

Naturally! I'd totally blocked that movie from my mind because of Matt Dillon. He just was not what I pictured when I was growing up reading the S.E. Hinton books (Yes, same for Tex and The Outsiders), and I have never watched it since.

Should I give it another shot? I no longer loathe Matt Dillon and it does have a lot of other great people.

Movie picture to come.

[Woofer]

http://www.thedarktower.org/gallery/data/562/Movie_Picture_Game_002.jpg

[fernandito]

Battle Royale?

[Woofer]

No, but isn't Battle Royale awesome?

[Heather19]

No, but isn't Battle Royale awesome?

Yes, I love that film.

Could this maybe be Ichi the Killer?

[Woofer]

Alas, no, but I love that movie as well.

[Heather19]

this is going to drive me crazy because it looks so familiar

[The Lady of Shadows]

all i know is it's freaking me right the fuck out! :scared:

[Woofer]

I'm sorry, turtlesong.

How long should I leave this? Post another pic? I'm leaving for Screamfest in the morning and won't have access again (so far as I know) until Monday night.

[gsvec]

Hint, maybe?

[turtlex]

My first thought was Brazil, but I don't think that's it.

Screamfest - woot ! Have fun !

[Woofer]

It is Japanese.
It is a bizarre love story with aliens and a scifi aspect.
It has moderate levels of weird The Thing-like gore.

ETA: Reviews say it is for gorehounds, but it's not standard slasher gore as I noted above.

[turtlex]

If it's not Akira ( and it's not Akira ) then I have no idea.

[Woofer]

Hehehe, but good try. It is obscure, but not too obscure. It's on Netflix.

Thanks for the well-wishes. I plan to be exhausted but thrilled after Screamfest. MALCOLM FREAKING MCDOWELL. I was in lust for young Malcolm, and I am in love with old Malcolm just because he plays awesome baddies. He does okay as good guys, too, but doh! McDowell as H.G. Wells or as Caligula? Hmmm.

[turtlex]

You're going to meet Malcolm McDowell?!? No way. I clicked on your link and didn't see that. That is freaking awesome! He's a legend !!!! You've got a crossover to Star Trek Generations, there! What are you going to have him sign? I'd have to go with something Clockwork, but no way I'd miss an oppportunity to have him sign something Trek as well. Wow. Woot !

ETA : Okay I have no clue what I was looking at before, but completely missed MM. Looks like a great line up. Corey Haim just added but to me, Rochelle Davis from The Crow! It's one of my all time favorite movies.

Awesome. Take pics!!

[Woofer]

Well, we don't know for sure that he'll be doing autographs, but most of them do, so... yeah. I am taking my collector's edition of the ACO video and my hardback UK release copy of the Burgess novel. He's definitely doing a Q&A session, so I will surely be in it! My friend who is going even had his action figure from ST: Generations, but gave it away when she decided she needed to condense collections. AUGH!

Among many others appearing:

Tom Savini (makeup artist and actor, probably best known for his role as Sex Machine in From Dusk Till Dawn
Doug Bradley (Pinhead, Hellraiser) and the other original Cenobites
Ken Foree (Peter, original Dawn of the Dead and Televangelist, remake of Dawn of the Dead) and many more from the original DotD cast
Angus Scrimm (The Tall Man, Phantasm)
Elvira
Jason Mewes (of Jay and Silent Bob)
Dana Snyder (voice of Master Shake from Aqua Teen Hunger Force)


I am so freaking psyched!

Okay, back to The Movie Picture Game. I'm posting another picture/hint, but it's kind of gory/graphic so a spoiler box it gets.

http://www.thedarktower.org/gallery/data/562/Movie_Picture_Game_003.jpg

[turtlex]

The show sounds great. Good luck with the autographs. ACO stuff sounds like a great way to go.

Back on topic - I still have no clue and ... ew.

[Woofer]

I have a bunch of errands to run in prep for leaving, but I'll check in periodically on this. For the moment, though, it's off to the shower!

[Heather19]

Sorry Woofer, I'm not sure if I know this one.

Have a great time at Screamfest. Sounds like it'll be alot of fun.

[Woofer]

TY! How long do I wait? Or shall I throw the feather in the air for someone else?

[The Lady of Shadows]

it's only been two days. i'd bump the original pic and the hint and see if anyone's guessed it by the time you come back.
it's a hard one and people may be searching (er, ummm, their brains that is. . . . :) ).

just my humble opinion.

Here we go:

It is Japanese.
It is a bizarre love story with aliens and a scifi aspect.
It has moderate levels of weird The Thing-like gore.

The Host?

[Woofer]

No, The Host is Korean. I want to see that. I started to watch it on Netflix watch instantly, but they only had subtitle version and I just wasn't in the mood to try and read subtitles that late at night.

[fernandito]

I got nuthin' :/

[The Lady of Shadows]

I got nuthin' :/


that's not true. you have a marvelous personality and wonderful ocd quirks! :lol:

[gsvec]

I spent a bunch of time googling, YouTubing, etc. and STILL got nuttin'. A couple I thought were close, but the more I looked the more I decided they weren't right. They were Tokyo Gore Police and Returner (aka Retana). I give up until after Screamfest. :lol:

[fernandito]

/Me thinks we need a new movie...

[turtlex]

I think woofer returns from Screamfest today.

[The Lady of Shadows]

woofer should be back today. let's threaten to pull her tail ( :lol: ) if she doesn't tell us cause i've been trying all weekend and am completely stumped (and i really like japenese horror flicks!).

or, we could have two going at once. :unsure:

[Woofer]

WOOF! I am back. Oh my god. I met Malcolm McDowell (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000532/) (got a pic with him, got an autographed pic of him as Alex, and he autographed my copy of A Clockwork Orange (the collector's edition DVD)), and Doug Bradley (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0103208/) (autographed my Hellraiser print) and Ken Foree (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0286010/) (autographed a nice B&W promo print from the original Dawn of the Dead). So much more. SQUEEE!

And the movie is Meatball Machine (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0820111/). Nice to see a reference Tokyo Gore Police, though. I can't wait to see that! I learned, while posting a picture from this movie, that it was a remake. Now I am very interested to see the 1999 original.

P.S. Doug Bradley says "Hello youtube!"

[gsvec]

Meatball Machine? Sounds like an Italian Restaurant to me! :lol: Sounds like you had a great time at Screamfest, Woofer!

[Woofer]

Hehehe. It does, doesn't it?

Okay, here's the new picture. I was just too tired last night to start the new movie. I could say a lot about this movie - one of my all time favorites.

[fernandito]

Is that Malcolm McDowell?

[turtlex]

Yes, for sure it is. Not sure on the film though.

[Woofer]

Oh yes... yes it is. *drool* He told a great story about this movie, too.

[The Lady of Shadows]

you know, i'd say it was "IF" if it was in color. :orely:

[Woofer]

Funny little film if.... Parts are in color, and parts are in B&W.

[The Lady of Shadows]

hmmmmm. ::wonders where brain went::

[Woofer]

Sure. I'll come back with something in just a bit!

[Woofer]

*bump* Nobody?

[IWasSentWest]

dukes of hazard? i dont think thats the same guy but might as well guess

[Woofer]

No, but thanks for guessing!

[gsvec]

I keep looking and I just can't seem to place it :arg:

[Woofer]

Well, I'll let it ride until someone requests otherwise. The movie is very odd.

Anybody need/want a hint?

[IWasSentWest]

[MrQuint]

Yes, hint please.

[fernandito]
