wild wild west is a fucking gem and deserves to be expanded upon
10,000 BC.
It got thst award for worst movie of the year. I get that its in no way historical accurate. And even in it’s own world maybe it doesn’t make sense thst the tribes never have met. But dang its just a fun action movie.
some films i rated 4+ stars on letterboxd in order of their imdb rating:
Attack of the Adult Babies (4.2)
Antibirth (4.9)
The Feast (5.6)
The Greasy Strangler (5.7)
68 Kill (6.0)
Blood Punch (6.2)that was fun to find out. all great films tbh
Death Sentence is awesome and doesn’t deserve it’s 20% rotten tomatoes score
Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny It has a 53% on RT which isn’t terrible but it bombed at the box office which it absolutely didn’t deserve
Didn’t get a movie till the series got canceled but Blue Mountain State should’ve gotten more love.
Had a lot of good laughs from the series.
Hudson Hawk gets a 5.7, which I think is criminal.
It’s so damn great!
So happy to see this, one of my favorite movies.
Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2
Velocipastor and Kung Pow: Enter the Fist!
Lost River (2015)
I went into it with zero knowledge or expectation and was held by it from beginning to end (even when I knew it was blatantly emulating David Lynch etc, I didn’t care, I was gripped). Only to look it up online afterwards and find out that critics and viewers kind of hate it.
- IMDb: 5.6

Exorcist II - The Heretic (1977).
I love the atmospheric, almost psychedelic vibe of this film. The scenery and settings are stunning, Blair is blooming and the story is very interesting. It’s certainly not perfect, but there is a lot to enjoy in there.
There have been a few versions released, so each might influence perception differently. I hope to see them all, eventually.Exorcist two is bonkers. (In a good way.)
The 13th Warrior
Came here to say this.
It predates LOTR just by 2 years yet I couldn’t help myself thinking how much Peter Jackson drew inspiration from it. Very similar shots, very similar visuals, very similar soundtrack, but ABYSMAL storytelling really ruins everything.
Beat me to it. 6.6 IMDB, 33% RT. It stars Antonio Banderas as an Arab, but goddamnit I love this flick.
The Waterboy
Hackers (1995), admittedly it has a fairly respectable 6.2 on IMDB, but only 33% on the tomatometer.
More honorable mentions:
- Kingdom of heaven (2005) - 40% tomatometer
- see no evil hear no evil (1989) - 29% tomatometer
Wilder/Pryor ftw
