Mysterious Island anyone? Escaping confederate soldiers land on said 'Mysterious Island' in a stolen hot air balloon and battle a variety of Ray 'The Don' Harryhausen stop motion creatures which include a giant crab. An elephant bird and giant wasps.
Then to top that off Hebert Lomb pops up as Captain Nemo.
Fuckin awsom.

Sounds weirder than van Dom's naked Nuns with machineguns, bigjobs. They must of been smoking goood shit in those days to come up with a story like that!

Mate from the sounds of it you have not seen this movie. Check it out now. I'm tellin you this whilst relatively sober so trust. It is ace.
Have you read my post re 'Beneath the Planet of the Apes'. Check that motherfucker out ASAP. If that film didn't influence Wagner in some way then I lick my own ball sack.
Belive!

Man, Archer is just the best.

What the fuck is Archer? Is it a Scott Bukula thing?

QUATERMASS AND THE FUCKIN PIT for cryin out loud. Call yourselves SciFi fans. Has no one on this board seen this fuckin film. Writen by Nigel Kneale and staring for my money (apart from the 'ledge' John Mills) the best Quatermass, Andrew Keir. Hobs fuckin end dudes.Lol.

Final Destination-the first one with Devon Sawa who looks remarkably like a young-ish Mel Gibson.

Anyway I was surprised how much I enjoyed it though I was imbibing a whisky on the rocks which would probably make anything, even one of those atrocious Sci Fy Channel Movies seem good.

Second ones pretty good. I love the opening highway multi pile up scene. Bone crunchingly good stuff. And the deaths later are a real treat. They're pretty clever and inventive films workin off of a nice original premises. I think that's why they stand out for me. Not seen past the second one though but I was really tempted to go see number 5 in 3D @ the pics in a sort of guilty pleasure way.

Saw the original movie of "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" last night, as part of Film Four's "vampire" season. Amazing that it went on to be such a popular TV series when the source material was so flawed. Some of the early vampire scenes are quite eerily done, but the final showdown is a bit of a blink-and-you'll-miss-it sort of thing.

Isn't Rutger Hauer in it? May be wrong on that score as I've only ever watched about 15mins of it @ anyone time.

Yeah, under some heavy make up and (unsurprisingly) playing the chief villain. Oddly enough, I found the bits with the regular vampires a hell of a lot more interesting than the ones with him in.
