Recommend some movies
I'm looking for some movies to check out and I need ideas. I don't mean big Hollywood movies that everybody knows. I'm looking for movies you like
that you think other people might not know about. Hook a honkey up.

- Traitor with Don Cheadle was a good, spy/espionage/terrorist stuff.
- Glory Daze, old punk movie about college life with Ben Affleck, Alyssa Milano and French Stewart, great soundtrack too from The Vandals & a dozen or
so punk bands.
- December Boys, Australian based movie with the Harry Potter dude in it, saw the first 20 minutes on TV one night and haven't seen the rest but
looked promising. Got it downloaded, will watch it eventually.
- Henry Rollins - Shock and Awe is a great Rollins stand up event.
- Deaths of Ian Stone is a good movie featured in the After Dark Horrorfest. The same guy dies every day in a different life/fashion. Worth a watch.
- Dying Breed is another After Dark Horrorfest based in remote forests of Tasmania where a pure blood community of some crazy bastards live & tourists
get trapped there.
- Antichrist if you like really fucking weird/art house/wtf is this type movies. Willem Dafoe is in it, it's weird as hell but if you dig that style
you'll like it.
- Charlie And Boots was a funny movie, Kenny the toilet guy & Crocodile Dundee are in it, I forget Kenny's real name and nobody knows Paul Hogan by
name lol. Father & son driving from rural Victoria to far north Queensland to fish off to top of Australia. Had some really funny stuff and had a
good story too.
- Fuck, a documentary on the word Fuck in modern pop culture. Ice T is hilarious in this, as are a ton of other actors/comedians/porn stars etc.
- Into The Wild by Sean Penn was incredible. Great videography, Alaskan wilderness, awesome story, based on true events. One of the best movies I've
seen.
- Old Dogs was a funny family movie with Seth Green, John Travolta & Robin Williams. Worth looking into if you like clean family funnies.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Session 9
Village of the Damned (1960)
The Orphanage
The Changeling (1980)

...and if you want something light hearted check out House (1986) awesome old school horror comedy

Casshern
In the future, in a polluted post-apocalyptic society called Eurasia after a war against Europe, the planet is devastated by the effect of nuclear,
biological and chemical weapons. The geneticist Dr. Azuma (Akira Terao) develops a technique called "neo-cell", capable of regenerating the body of
human beings, sponsored by an evil corporation. His son Tetsuya Azuma (Yusuke Iseya) dies in the war, but after an accident in the laboratory of Dr.
Azuma, Tetsuya revives as the powerful warrior Casshern, while a new breed of mutants called "neo-humans" is generated in the plant. The neo-humans
decide to annihilate the humans and raise a new world.
American werewolf in London
Two American students are on a walking tour of England and are attacked by a Werewolf. One is killed, the other is mauled. The Werewolf is killed, but
reverts to it's human form, and the townspeople are able to deny it's existence. The surviving student begins to have nightmares of hunting on 4 feet
at first, but then finds that his friend and other recent victims appear to him, demanding that he find a way to die to release them from their curse,
being trapped between worlds because of their unnatural death.
Return of the living dead part 2
A gang of kids accidentally release of mysterious gas which wakes up the inhabitants of an adjacent graveyard. The zombies want only one thing and
that's BRAINS and there are plenty of them in the local town which has been sealed off by the army.
Bad boy Bubby
Bad Boy Bubby is just that: a bad boy. So bad, in fact, that his mother has kept him locked in their house for his entire thirty years, convincing him
that the air outside is poisonous. After a visit from his estranged father, circumstances force Bubby into the waiting world, a place which is just as
unusual to him as he is to the world.
Living a life kept shut by a dream,
I'm reaching out to grasp my reality.
Hands of time wrap tight around my neck, and hit me so hard,
leaving me eyes black.
staring at a ceiling,
wondering why i never left,
penning words in a notebook,
wondering why haven't slept.
sanity is tapping in a cell
inside my fucking head.
begging for redemption
after hearing what was said.
the nights, they will not sleep
cause the days, have played for keeps.

Other than my sister, you're the first person I know that has even heard of Session 9. Cool fucking flick. House is also awesome. I must have
watched that 100 times over the years.

The Salton Sea - Double crosses, revenge, meth addicts and Val Kilmer.
Big Trouble In Little China - One of my favorite John Carpenter films. Kurt Russell ends up fighting Chinese demons. Fucking awesome.
Dolemite II: Human Tornado - Rudy Ray Moore beats up mobsters and rednecks.
Versus - Japanese movie about escaped cons meeting Yakuza in an isolated forest when all of a sudden, the dead rise and shitloads of fights and
gunplay breaks out.

Crazy Eights is another After Dark Horrorfest film and if I remember right it was pretty similar to Session 9.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal

i'd never heard of Session 9 until recently when I was randomly reading a list of scary movies on some site.
I read up on and downloaded it and as soon as i finished watching it I ordered the dvd. Really creepy stuff.
Strong cast too. The guy who directed it also The Machinist and some episodes of The Wire and The Shield.
