Rewatched Kairo in preparation for Pulse, but I just found out Pulse won't be opening at our local theater this Friday.:( Still, I got to watch a really good movie, so that must count for something.

Is it just me...Or does Pulse look a lot like White Noise?

Even though I liked White Noise (stop booing and hissing...I get the point;)), I hope Pulse at least tries to stick to Kairo. If it doesn't...well maybe I should be glad it's not opening in my hometown.

...American Ninja...
Man, so much of this makes me laugh...but there's some great kills. As a kid, this was like the best movie in existence...now, it's well, fun.
"C'mawn karate man!!"

little miss sunshine:

the best dark comedy since the royal tenenbaums. i was not prepared to laugh that much! i cannot stress enough how hysterically funny this movie is. after reading about the movie i was expecting something more subdued and serious, like june bug, but this was like national lampoon's vacation meets american beauty. and the characters are great (look out for alan arkin as the heroin bumping disgruntled grandfather). good stuff, highly recommended.

when this came out i saw it in the theatres ... i was caught between being too young to think it was cool and old enough to enjoy the cheeze-factor.

i hated it more than any other movie i'd seen up to that time ..

the plot (using the term loosely as possible) the horrendous acting ... and the frigging laser beams ..

Not to mention the "martial art" fights. Laaaaaame.

"Look at me. I´m a ninja, so i can fly!!" Please...


But the standard for Ninja movies in the 80s was pretty low (not that i can think of any ninja movies after the 80s), which made the "American ninja" trilogy look like a fucking masterpiece.

And when you see them now you just go, "Why?? Why did i like that crap???".
