    Dahmer. Probably because he did not kill, eat and chop up women. I would have been safe. I had a few guy friends watch it with me. THEY wanted to kill me after watching it.

    Serial killers are a fascination with me. And not one topped Dahmer imo. MOvie was pretty damn close to his life...as they talked about it at the end. So young, so deadly.

    Wow Pam.. I liked the movie too. Did you see the others by the same guy? He did one on Gacy and one on Bundy. Bundy's was pretty chilling though--and they showed everything, including him being prepped for execution: cotton balls and vaseline included.

    OK, these are not well-known movies outside of Latin American culture: a series called "La India Maria," about a little Mexican woman of indigenous descent, who has lots of crazy adventures but always retains her folky integrity.

    Lol yes.....i have seen them all i am pretty sure! Glad to know another woman liked it...it kinda lets you inside the mind a bit. I own a few books about Dahmer and others as well. But not much was documented on Dahmer...He was a sick fuck no doubt, and i don't look up to him...but how these people do this, and slip the law so many times...clearly they are not insane, just highly clever. Their IQ's are great. It's a shame they did not use the mind in a more constructive way.

    But still they are very interesting people...I am looking into the KTB killer now!

    And we have one of the (or maybe the oldest now ) who went on a "Rampage killing spree right down the street from me. Death row i believe...William Cruise (sp) Don't look much into him however. It's the serial killers that have my attention....ahh to interview one!

    I've always had a ridiculous fondness for 'My Girl'. I've seen it waaaay too many times.

    Also 'Fire Walk With Me', the Twin Peaks movie. I know other Twin Peaks fans 'get' it, but if you haven't watched the show, and you just dive into the movie, you'd probably just sit there like 'huh? wtf?'.

    Twin Peaks as a whole is awesome, probably my favorite media experience.

    loooove Eternal Sunshine!

    someone mentioned that a lot of people may like a movie, but you know you it's got a special meaning to you, you know no one gets out of it what you do, and it's so true... like, it's hard to put in words the effect the Eternal Sunshine has on me, for instance, but if I try, it's just this airy, spacey, oceany, half stoned feeling, lol... vague, hazy, lazy, like painting with watercolors somewhere away from hustle and bustle of life and not having a care in the world... like a dream...

    p.s. am watching "Deuce Bigalow European Gigolo" right now and this ain't it, rofl! still, am very fond of the original, lol.

    Since I hardly ever watch TV, and tend to just assume all the shows are pretty much alike, I never pay much attention when everyone talks about any show, the characters, who did what to who, etc.

    So when everyone was running around saying how great Twin Peaks was, 'who killed Laura Palmer', 'oh it's so funny', 'oh it's better than regular TV', I was just an asshole and said to myself "Right, heard that before."

    Now if I had known it was David Lynch behind it, I might have been smart enough to turn on the evil box and watch the damned show.

    I saw the movie, and to some extent said "huh, wtf?", but that's always a part of watching any David Lynch movie, lol. It's too bad I hadn't seen any of the series, but I still liked it.

    Now Mullholland Drive, there's a movie that most people will say "WTF?!" to, and I know lot's of people who didn't like it.

    I said it too--again--but I loved it. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what the hell happened, even if I have a lot better idea after seeing it three times, lol...

    But that's the fun of a Lynch film--you can never really pin down exactly what is going on.

    I fucking love this thread, lol--Ok, anyone seen Fellini's Satryicon? I wish I had read the book before the movie instead of after, but I'm not sure how much good it would have done. He's like Lynch in that respect

    ooh, "Mullholland Drive" was great! i remember watching in on Independence day 2004, half drunk and crying after a break up with my boyfriend. But that movie just sucked me in. Gotta rent it again. "Blue Velvet" kinda bored me, but i know a lot of people like it...

    ot, but i used to dance a lot to the theme song from Twin Peaks. Went over really well.

    anyone else loves "Waking Life", or am i alone in this? i like it better than "What the bleep do we know"...

    The Green Mile is on ABC this Saturday. (based on the Steven King novel)

    This is a very good movie, if you haven't heard about it. Excellent acting too.

    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    I have a couple..

    Like Water for Chocolate... those of you who have never seen it, I highly recommend it.. definitely worth watching.

    Clockwork Orange... you just have to see it.

    Stand By me... this is by far one of my favorite movies of all time, and a few of my friends just don't understand why.

    I have to agree with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Very moving for me when I watched it...I cried, which I rarely do. But, I felt like the person I was watching it with just didn't "get it" the way that I did. I think I'll have to go and buy it tomorrow, as I've only seen it once.

    I've seen it. It's a Jim Jarmusch film.



    Jim Jarmusch is one America's most acclaimed independent filmmakers. He is pre-Sundance, so his early films rarely made it into the mainstream. With Sundance and the success of the other independent filmmakers like K. Smith and Paul Thomas Anderson, indie films have gained acceptance. But Jarmusch was one of the pioneers of indie film.



    I've been a fan of his since I saw his early film, Stranger than Paradise. You may also like his later film, Night on Earth.

    I both loved and hated "The Terminal" with Tom Hanks. I loved it because Gupta is the BEST character and stole the show. I hated it because it was so Spielberg and Hollywoody.

    By almost the same token, I absolutely LOVE "A.I." The Teddy bear steals the movie, and I will watch it over and over again and cry every single frickin time I see it!!!!

    hell yes--especially Dr. strangelove!

    Oh, and Kat--the Terminal had great potential--but that goddamned Spielberg almost never resists pulling out all the stops to get us all snuffling and crying, which almost invariable bores the crap out of me, lol.

    But hey, I wouldn't tell you that if I didn't think of you as a friend, and mast same goes for Spiderman...

    LOL, OMG A.I. was the first time i ever shed a tear at a movie. When David gets that one last day with 'mommy' just killed me. Though had Kubrick lived long enough to do the movie it would have ended at the bottom of the harbor with the blue fairy.

    Oh what might have been...

    Mine would have to be 'Willow'. That sucker bombed like a lead pipe tossed into the Marriana trench, but i liked it a lot.

    ^^I love Willow - I thought I was the only one!^^
    Also Milo and Otis...
    One of my new favs is "Closer" w/Julia Roberts & Natalie Portman. It's about how people interact in relationships.
    Anyone seen Eli Roth's "Hostel", recently in theaters? Gory, but excellent plot and character developement.

    "The 40Year-Old Virgin" because it seems like Andy and I live parallel lives. I swear I'm his female counterpart. Plus, I've actually had a weekend like his "eggsalad sandwich" weekend, only mine was sweet iced tea. I spent all day making it, and by the time I was done and ready to drink it, my teammate skanked it all. And everyone I know tells me I put the p***y on a pedestal too.
