I'll join after the UFC.

**RU Joe** · 04-24-2016, 02:29 AM

Well, it finally happened - I saw a movie even worse than Tommy Wiseau's 'The Room'.
Food Fight was really bad but I don't think it compares since it was entirely CGI and therefore bad in an entirely different way; like comparing rotten apples to rotten oranges, so to speak.

What the hell was with the little room with the walls all covered with black garbage bags?
Was that the Donkey Room?

**ZedIsDead** · 04-30-2016, 08:55 PM

It was probably Neil Breen's rape room.

^
It was interesting, but at the same time very odd.
Like other movies attempting to pack lots of different characters in, it felt piecemeal at times and some of it just didn't make sense.
I guess my biggest complaint is the really fast cut CGI scenes which left me wondering what was going on = those of you familiar with The Transformers know what I mean.
That being said, it wasn't the worst movie and is still better than most we've watched lately.

After that we watched William Castle's 1960 production '13 Ghosts'

Which I found very interesting, having only seen the remake until now.
Apparently back when it was in theaters, all audience members were given a 'Ghost Viewer' necessary to 'see' the ghosts on screen during certain scenes.
You don't get that sort of thing anymore; it must have made the movie experience so much more fun!

**ZedIsDead** · 05-07-2016, 08:34 PM

We're going to double down on Neil Breen. Saturday night at 10PM EST, RU Movie Night returns with Double Down.

Can it actually be worse than Fateful Findings?

Can it?

First of all I want to address the ratings on the poster or w/e this is ^ .
'The Winner'? - winner of what?
Who gave it those '4 stars', and what do they even mean anyway?
What do those quotes refer to? - notice that they're not referring to any one aspect of the movie at all?
They could be talking about almost anything, like so:

The lunch menu ... 'dangerously controversial' ... too much hot sauce in the burritos ... muchas gassy - ass ...

'Stunning' ... scenery, but the rest of it felt like watching a Mission Impossible movie starring the guy from Jacob's Ladder ...

'Desperation' ... is what the audience feels when they're trying to make heads or tails of what's going on.

Ok,
To be fair, the scenery and cinematography were pretty good, there were very beautiful shots establishing the location which as the title implies is in and around Las Vegas, Nevada.
Also, as with Neil Breen's other film 'Fateful Findings', the plot was ambitious and honestly still way the hell better than Tommy Wiseau's 'The Room'.

Neil Breen's character {whatshis name}, is a multi - millionaire super - spy / highly decorated former special ops military officer / hit man / mercenary / uber hacker {and probably more but w/e} capable of manipulating or disabling any electronically controlled system on the planet via his sophisticated array of TV satellite dishes clamped onto the trunk of his outdated Mercedes Benz and several crappy looking laptops.

On the run, hiding from 'them'

{who cares} in the desert outside of Las Vegas full of lucky gamblers' bones and a ram skull {Neil Breen sure loves this skull

; it also appeared in his other movie}, and eating only tuna from cans and drinking Miller Lite whilst manipulating shit elsewhere via his laptops and glancing occasionally at the satellite dishes as he's working ...

AS I said earlier, Breen's character is very much like the guy from Jacob's Ladder who suffers horrible hallucinations as a result of having been exposed to military grade LSD during the Vietnam war; so does this guy, and the result is a confusing mess ...

{UGH,

I'm getting tired of talking about this POS so the rest will be in broken bits, just like the reviews }:

Backstory:
He and his girlfriend met when they were very young and apparently spent most of their lives together.
He's a successful computer expert and she has a nice ass, and they have a happy life.
At some point she gets assassinated {with her ass showing, ironically} by 'them'

, which pushes Breen's character over the edge and he turns renegade.

Story story:
He transports and deals in dangerous crap like biological weapons, double crosses the people he deals with, makes hits on newly wed couples, and a bunch of other nasty stuff, ultimately becoming involved in a plot to create utter chaos on earth which he then backs out of at the last moment.
Some politicians and other officials make stupid speeches, people die, there's a fire somewhere, and that's about it.

The nail in the coffin:
Through the whole movie he's bouncing back and forth all over the place between what could only be flashbacks / hallucinations such as:

Sleeping in / waking up beside his car, which sometimes has 'help' written in blood on one side {this happens no less than 10 times with slight variations}.

Seeing a 'familiar' old man dying in the desert who gives him some kind of special stone.
Don't ask me what that was about.

Seeing himself / his girlfriend both young and grown alternatively, and seeing her dead in a body bag in varying states of decay {around 4 times}.

Pulling Tommy Chong's blue jean vest adorned with every military medal imaginable from under a pile of empty tuna cans in his trunk and putting it on.
Later it disappears and he's back to his usual sleeveless T shirt.

Performing a faith healing using some kind of 'special power' he acquired on a young relative? of his, curing her newly - diagnosed brain cancer merely by placing his hand on top of her head.
One - shot deal, and no connection to the rest of the plot.

IN CONCLUSION:

It had potential but was so confusing as to what was actually happening and what was just another flashback I had no idea what to think.
Ram skull.

So was it worse than Fateful Findings?
I think they're sister movies, and could really be melded together nicely in terms of their plots, but this one was too unorganized.
.................................................. .................................................. ...................

NEXT we watched the horrors 'VHS' 1 and 2.
Shot almost entirely in a first person 'camera eye' view, both movies are collections of shorter horror stories glued together by a central premise, or hub, it being a VHS cassette containing footage which bears some kind of a curse.
Sort of a cross between 'Blair Witch' , along with the storytelling approach of 'Creepshow'.

I further compare these to the Blair Witch movies in that the second was better than the first, and even in the way the movies were shot as well; the first was all very shaky camcorder shots and the second smoother and more polished, featuring normal movie - type footage mixed with the camcorder style footage.

I liked the second one far better than the first, and that Indonesian documentary - style segment in the second one was outstanding.
They really helped me recover after watching Double Down.

Toward the end of the movie, it turns out he didn't save her(at least that's what I think, who knows what actually happens in this fucking movie).

**Slime Slayer** · 05-08-2016, 06:00 PM

Best part of the movie was when the kid gets caught doin the 5 knuckle shuffle while all his friends are asleep.

I wouldn't be surprised but like you say, who knows?

Yeah that was a funky part of VHS 2.

It was probably more like him doing the '2 finger shuffle' while he thought his friends were asleep.

I can't be there that early. Not going to ask for a different time slot of course, but maybe if there are others who cant be there that early... us westerners need time to eat supper!
