The Last Jedi

[Mord]

The Shape of Water  -  Guillermo Del Toro gives the Gillman the finale it truly deserves. Beautiful romance fantasy, a la "Beauty and the Beast", with an incredible cast. Sally Hawkins is such a pleasure to watch (Yes, she does get naked in this). Original, imaginative,  and visually stunning film. Our favorite monsters aren't getting this kind of respect from Universal. They're happy to churn out mindless "action-horror" with dubious choices for the cast (Yes, "The Mummy", I'm looking at you). If you're a Creature fan and haven't seen this...what are you waiting for?

The Shape of Water... 

You had me at "naked".

Congo, 1995 - The author of "Jurassic Park" wrote the book this jungle adventure was based on.  Two groups merge to venture into a war-torn Congo.  One group is on the altruistic mission to return a laboratory gorilla to her place of birth.  The other group is trying to discover the fate of a previous group that disappeared rather mysteriously.  They are joined my an individual with the less pure motive of finding the ancient, (mythical?) city of Zing,  rhymes with "cringe', and Solomon's diamond mines.  Stuff happens.

Why does this movie belong here?  You have to see it for yourself.  I hate to give any but bare bones details in reviews.

The resolution is over-the-top comic book fare that would be an interesting setting for Indiana Jones.  But the lengthy setup, suspense and dangerous jungle settings are pretty well done.  Well worth a single viewing.  Whether it is worth re-visiting is up to you. 

I bought a copy when I found one that was dirt cheap and haven't regretted the decision.

SPLIT (2017) - I felt James McAvoy was excellent and this is the best M. Night Shyamalan film in quite some time.

THE HIDEOUS SUN DEMON (1958) - been a while, always loved this.

[Monsters For Sale]

A Simple Plan, 1998 - Two brothers and a friend find considerable money.  Then, their luck turns decidedly sour. 

A cold weather classic that came out 2 years after "Fargo" and suffered unfair comparisons because of it.  Directed by Sam Raimi.  Starring a solid cast:  Bill Paxton, Billy Bob Thornton, Brent Briscoe and Bridget Fonda.

Re-watched it because it was mention in this thread.  It still holds up after several viewings.

This film deserves a lot more respect than it gets.

FIRE MAIDENS FROM OUTER SPACE (1958) - Brings back wonderful memories of when my dad took me and one of my sisters to a drive-in back in the early '60s. It was part of an all-night show. 

I'll never forget the line-up:
FIRE MAIDENS FROM OUTER SPACE
THE MOLE PEOPLE
THE DEADLY MANTIS
CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF - which terrified me at that young age even though I fell asleep about 1/3 through. (Of course it became one of my favorites later)

I just loved watching "Die Monster Die!" when it came out at the Reading Drive-in, recently watched it on VHS a few nights ago.

Lots of great drive-in memories - KING KONG VS. GODZILLA, EVIL OF FRANKENSTEIN, THE GREEN SLIME, DRACULA HAS RISEN FROM THE GRAVE, CAPTAIN SINBAD, DINOSAURUS!, PLANET OF THE APES, NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and the list goes on and on.

I saw a matinee showing of this as a kid. Loads of fun (reminds me of Hammer).

Raise the Titanic, 1980 - Something incredibly rare and vital for national security is aboard the Titanic, 2 miles down.  Clive Cussler's solution: hire special agent Dirk Pitt to retrieve it from the ocean floor.

Not horror, but brushes with sci-fi and future national defense/potential weapons more powerful than the atomic bomb.

Very able cast: Jason Robards, Alec Guiness, Richard Jordan and Anne Archer.  Darned nice pre-computer miniature work with lovely underwater model work directed by Ricou Browning.  (The Titanic model is 55 feet long and weighs 10 tons!)

Even though this movie was done before we learned the true condition of the Titanic, it doesn't feel as dated as it might have.

Kinda fun visit to the days of the cold war.
