Thanks for dropping by.
J. A...Cliff: Hey, Cliff. Thanks for dropping by. <br /><br />J. Astro: Do you have a link to this boil draining video? ;)<br /><br />Knarf Black XIV: I'm not sure what Devin DeVasquez thinks of her first-rate resume, but I do know that the word "oeuvre" is quite tasty.<br /><br />According to IMDB, House and House II: The Second Floor scribe, Ethan Wiley, has five movies in development; one with the title "Baby Zombies."<br /><br />The Vicar of VHS: Yeah, the goo in From Beyond is strangely similar to the goo in Society. In fact, they would both make for a terrific double-bill; you know, if you're into watching things secrete ooze.<br /><br />I'm no math whiz, but wouldn't Emilio Estevez be an old-ish Emilio Estevez around the time Society came out?<br /><br />Keith: Despite all the yuckiness, it's actually a semi-intelligent satire about 1980s era greed and excess.Yum-Yumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897678877069611172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9109073679101688906.post-11513707550997342312009-10-21T10:57:48.326-04:002009-10-21T10:57:48.326-04:00I've never seen this movie before.

Y...I LOVE Society, and watch it every chance I get! Yes indeed, Billy, the rich are NOT like you and me! <br /><br />This is a movie that is just amazing in the fact that it ever got made. And the practical effects (by my favorite-named special FX artist, "Screamin' Mad" George) are of a scope and scale I despair we'll ever see again. It's like those squishy sequences from FROM BEYOND with all vestige of restraint and good taste removed--which is aces in my book! <br /><br />Just a weird, wrong, and totally entertaining movie, and one I often recommend to friends who thereafter stop returning my calls.<br /><br />Oh, and by the way, I thought for the longest time (until I learned to use imdb and bought the dvd, actually) that Billy was played by a young Emilio Estevez. I'm still not altogether sure this is not the case, covered up by his agent thereafter. <br /><br />Great write-up!The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9109073679101688906.post-997807705440572442009-10-20T09:41:10.271-04:002009-10-20T09:41:10.271-04:00Not that the rest of her oeuvre is that impressive...Not that the rest of her oeuvre is that impressive, but I wonder if Devin DeVasquez leaves House II on her resume or immediately fakes a violent coughing fit if anyone asks her about it.<br /><br />I'm a little embarrassed just for watching it, and that only happened because they give it away free with the first House.Frank Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14850057409016456318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9109073679101688906.post-17430819674954033852009-10-20T00:44:01.250-04:002009-10-20T00:44:01.250-04:00heh - "SOCIETY" is one of those weird li...heh - "SOCIETY" is one of those weird little oddities that I liked the first time, & I'm happy to own it, but loathe to ever it watch again. It's just fuckin' gross, like watchin' a YouTube video of somebody draining the world's largest boil or something. Enthralling but VERY off-putting. :)J.
