You talking classics or any era? Cause I really enjoyed In A Valley of Violence; Ethan Hawke and Travolta. The Ballad of Lefty Brown with my man Pullman was shot in Montana, so that was a selling point for me. But pretty solid, especially on a budget.

Just got a bunch of sleaze delivered last night, already watched Raiders of Atlantis, not sure what tonight's movie will be yet... Incredible. I’ve only seen a couple of these, and there’s a lot more I definitely want to check out. I love Severin!! Same here. They have especially been killing it these past couple years, so many good releases it's hard to keep up. Most of these were on sale for $8.00-$10.00, can't beat that. I just finished Invasion of the Blood Farmers, the movie wasn't good, but I watched a fantastic interview with the director and that was much more entertaining than the feature itself. The guy had a rock & roll band called The Castle Kings and was picked up off the streets by a guy working for Atlantic Records to record a single with Phil Spector... and a bunch of other wild stories. I just love these unassuming dudes who are low-key the coolest motherfuckers on the planet. One of the movies you've seen wouldn't happen to be The Mad Bomber by any chance? If so I wouldn't mind discussing Neville Brand's jackoff backyard poolhouse incident... or just his backyard jackoff poolhouse in general haha As for westerns...I just started getting into them these past 3-4 years... a few recent discoveries: The Ride Back ! and The Man From Del Rio. Both starring Anthony Quinn. Both great!! Death Rides a Horse. Lee Van Cleef is the coolest.

Eaten alive is definitely sleaze. I only know Raider of Atlantis from the Red Letter Media episode. A lot of shot guns in drug stores.*eyetalian Accent* "You have a headache I prescribe a shotgun Raiders of Atlantis was fucking awesome, it doesn't disappoint. From the first few seconds of the opening credits I immediately knew this was going to rule. Whole thing is up on youtube if anyone is in the mood for eyetalian post-apo trash!! There was this shitty eyetalian movie that I thought was pretty sick because they shoot people with lasers but like straight blow parts off them cant remember what it was. I think it was on Rifftrax or MST3K.

That sounds like maybe Light Blast with Erik Estrada ?? Could be a ton of movies...

I have actually watched some of the movies like Space Mutiny, Touch of Satan, and Manos The Hands of Fate along with others because of the show.

Favorite lesser-known westerns? ‘Lesser known’ is a tough descriptor because of how much it depends on how much of a film freak somebody is and then how much they know beyond Tombstone/Dollars Trilogy/The Searchers/etc but as somebody that really loves the genre the first things to pop into my head were: - The Ox-Bow Incident - The Great Silence - Cut-Throats Nine - The Mercenary - Bad Day at Black Rock

Same director as Light Blast. Never saw the Birdemic movies.

Got to see 'Burden Of Dreams' tonight, q&a w/ Werner Herzog & Les Blanks' son, Harrod Blank. Herzog is incredible... every answer could've been put into any documentary and be the highlight.
It was my first time seeing 'Burden Of Dreams'. It's on par with 'Fitzcarraldo'... probably better?

The Proposition is a good current underrated Western. That director (John Hillcoat) is working out an adaptation for Blood Meridian, if that actually ends up happening.

I’ll definitely add the rest to the list. Thanks!

Slow West was a solid recent western. Fassbender is the lead and it looks gorgeous.

Happy to see The Brutalist got picked up by a distributor. It being A24 means it will get a theatrical run, maybe small or slow release but it will be in theaters.

With Speak No Evil remake just about upon us, I’m just wondering if it meaningfully departs from the original. If not, not much point in ever seeing it (still never seen Let Me In). I imagine it’s just…more toned down (if the stoning happens, it won’t be as crushing), while also more viscerally “thrilling,” with the end of the trailer packing some action shots in. The fact that they tell you in the trailer that the boy’s tongue is cut out removes a lot, I think. Woulda been better if they had Longlegs’d the trailers/marketing campaign, which we’ll probably see a lot of in the next two years. More selling the tone than the story/character beats, while luring audiences in based on ambiguity. Honestly may have only worked this one time cuz audiences are fucking stupid and want a movie spoon fed to them in the trailers, which is why we get trailers that show 90% of a movie.

This might be Brady Corbet’s coming out party if A24 can really generate interest. I’m guessing it won’t be conventional or agreeable enough for Oscar contention. Dude hasn’t acted in like 10 years. He was great in Mysterious Skin.

Also, A24 shelling out 10 million for a movie with likely little commercial appeal is something. They can’t cut one of their sexy, dark horror trailers for it. Speaking of which, I think Heretic screens today.

It really seems like they’re playing up the family fighting back aspect to the point where I feel like they might survive the whole ordeal. There was some screening reports where people hinted as much. Ya know, the fighting Americans!! But who knows. If it has them meeting the same fate then it’s truly fucking pointless. Either way it really really did not need a remake.

Focus/Universal bought international rights for The Brutalist, it's getting pushed as an awards contender. Can't wait.
