What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

[BegintheBeguine]

Horror Express, and Premonition.

 

[LordJohnRoxton]

The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer... Cary Grant, Myrna Loy, and Shirley Temple!

 

[Josephine]

I just watched Underworld. Apparently for the second time. I had forgotten I had watched it before, but them some things jogged my memory. I was cross stitching so I just left it on and to see what I had forgotten. I want my 4 hours back. 2 for the first time and 2 for the second.

Actually, I think I meant to get Underworld: Evolution, but I think I will skip it...

Do you think Underworld:Evolution is better than the original? I thought that it did worse in the box office (as if that means a blessed thing)...

I haven't seen U:E. It has the same rating on IMDb (6.6) that Underworld does. Maybe I'll put U:E at the end of my Netflix queue and watch it after the others come...

ps Underworld did 51.9 billion US, and U:E did 62.3, but that doesn't include DVD sales which I read were as much as ticket sales.

Mellow greetings yookee dookee!

This one's a huge, huge guilty pleasure of mine. Cary Grant is a riot and I was surprised at Temple's skill at comedy--too bad she didn't get to do more as an adult. Myrna's her usual perfection, Rudy Vallee is always welcome for me and I loved the kid who played Jerry.

You remind me of a man...

Horror Express

..with Cushing and Lee? I love that movie! It is so bad it's great.

 

[Quigley Brown]

I watched the original 'Alfie' on TMC last night. Can anybody tell me what's it all about?

A great film. I caught the last 15 minutes this time.
Did anyone see the mess that was Jude Law in the Alfie remake? Oh the horror!

I watched The 300 last night.

I stand corrected! I haven't watched either of them the whole way through. While I love a dark movie, especially a vampire movie, in general and Kate Bekinsale in particular...

You have to love that line!
It's true... Shirley Temple really didn't get to exercise those skills as she became an adult. I suppose it was as difficult to break out of that child star mold then as it seems to be now!

I've had these on my Netflix queue for awhile--I don't expect much from them but Bill Nighy as a vampire? Gotta see that.

Cushing and Lee are the best! They elevate even the cheesiest material.

Just watched Spencers Mountain with Henry Fonda, I liked it. I watched it as a kid but did not remember much of it.

Waiting on the DVD of 'Bad Day at Black Rock' it should arrive this week.

Cushing and Lee were my Horror heros!
Hammer put out the coolest films, at least I thought so back in the day.

I still think so.

Bad Day At Black Rock

I got BD@BR some time ago. I remembered watching it as a teen at my parents house and being totally involved in the antagonistic aspecs of this drama. I had not seen it in 30 plus years, but was compelled to get it from my memory of the gamat of feelings it had evoked. Borgnine and Marvin portray astonishingly repulsive characters. Also some fine hats.

The title also evokes the exploitation movies of the era.

Great film.

The Philadelphia Story

My first time. Wonderfully entertaining.

 

[Matt Crunk]

The last movie I watched was The Naked City. I just picked up the Criterion Collection edition DVD of it yesterday at my local Movie Stop. My first time to see it and must admit I was a bit disappointed it was not shot in a more typical Noir style.
