That is without a doubt one of my childhood favs, I use to have it taped off the TV and I watched that thing all the time. I was also pretty fond of Blew up, BIG BUNNY!

Recently finished "Rang De Basanti".

Don't think I'm gonna watch "Conquest". It looks good AND it's a Fulci film, but the first few minutes and I get distracted.

The next six films on my queue (number seven is the first disc of Star Trek TOS: Season 2) are as followed at the moment:

* Shortbus: a sex-based drama directed by John Cameron Mitchell, the man who created and starred in the Off-Broadway musical turned film "Hedwig and the Angry Inch".
* Mysterious Skin: another Gregg Araki film, the film follows two young men, a male prostitute and an apparent alien abductee, both of which who were the victims of child abuse.
* The Living End: an earlier Gregg Araki film (pre-The Doom Generation), this story follows an HIV-positive gay man who becomes involved with a homicidal drifter (who, FYI, isn't Xavier from The Doom Generation)
* Caligula: the infamous film about the hedonistic Roman emperor.
* Tetsuo: The Iron Man: words can't really describe it
* Ultraman Gaia: The Battle in Hyperspace: it's Ultraman. 'Nuff said.

And of course, after that, I'm starting on the second season of Star Trek TOS. Naturally, I plan on another movie hiatus between seasons 2 and 3, and between 3 and TAS, but not between TAS and the films.

Shutter Island was pretty good. And Dear Johns a chick flick but it was enjoyable. Definitely worth seeing.

Shiver: Spanish chiller, which I thought was pretty good.
Let the Right One In: Swedish, this movie was a great great take on the vampire flick. Not a scary movie, not gory, and not an action flick. Very atmospheric and touching.

Au Revoir Les Enfants

So goooooooood. Best foreign film I've ever seen, and my parents worship foreign films, so i've seen my share.

Based in nazi occupied Paris, France In a wealthy catholic boarding school for boys. The boarding school hides a jewish kid and pretends he is a catholic. No one knows except the viewer and the priest/teachers.

Good stuff. The second wasn't as good IMHO, but Tokyo Fist is excellent. I still need to see more of Tsukamoto's later films other than Bullet Ballet though.

Black Dynamite, easily Blaxploitation at its best. I'd say this even trumps Blackenstein.
