Our Favorite Movies Day 8: Evil Dead

Evil Dead is a 1981 Sam Raimi horror movie that is, well pretty much a cult classic. It has everything you could want, death, gore, nudity,a cabin in the woods. The only real issue is to me it was always more funny to me than anything. I feel like a lot of others felt the same way considering how the sequels were made. I actually first saw this movie hammered with friends and me and his wife annoyed him to no end when we talked through the entire movie making fun of the outdated effects. And yes, I was way under age to be drinking. I loved the movie and I still like tossing it on every so often, and you should definitely check this one out. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailers

Later this month what will probably be the game of the year releases, Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2. The game is shaping up to be pretty great, with hunting and shopping and a huge world to explore. A very dangerous world, see for example if you decide to wantonly kill people thats fine, but their families might just decide to kill you later. Recently game play trailers have released and i wanted to drop them in one place for you guys.

 

Our Favorites Day7: Scream

Scream is the 1996 Wes Craven movie that spawned a sort of resurgence in horror movies for a bit. It wasn’t the best horror movie of the 90’s, but it was possibly the most popular. This is part of why it makes the list. The movie itself while good and maybe even great, it is what it represents that is important. Horror movies weren’t dead or anything like that but people were losing interest. Along came scream, renewing the main stream interest. I remember being in school and people who never even discussed horror movies talking about it. This was really the first time I remember people being that excited over a single horror movie, and that is why this made the list. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Nic Cage says he would be a great Lex Luthor

Most people don’t know that, or maybe they do, that at one point Nicolas Cage was supposed to play Superman. If you want the fully story on all this check out Screen rant.  What is also interesting is when asked about playing Superman Cage openly admits that those days are gone, but he believes he would make a great Lux Luthor. Honestly as much as I enjoy his work I don’t think it would go so well. But hey what do I know, I still think the best Lex was Michael Rosenbaum. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Movies We Love Day 6:Zombieland

Zombieland Now you guys had to have known this movie would show up today after this mornings post about Zombieland 2. This one is great for so many reason to me. It has a great story, great cast and is simply funny as hell. Whether its Woody yelling “Thank god for rednecks” while shooting a fully automatic weapon or Bill Murray simply being Bill Murray. I don’t really have any fond childhood or heartwarming memories, I honestly just really enjoy it for what it is. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Zombieland 2

After many years of rumors and such Comicbook.com and many others have been reporting that zombieland 2 is set to release a year from now in October of 2019, 10 years after the original. The stars had to align to make this happen with. Getting the original cast together was hard, and they pretty much demanded a high quality script.  Wegotthiscovered.com also reports that we have been promised a cameo that will rival that of the Bill Fucking Murray came from the first, but we will have to wait to see. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our Favorites Day 5: Night of The Living Dead

Night of the Living Dead by George A Romero  is a classic zombie movie. And as I learned last year due to some forgotten paper work when it was made it has always been considered public domain, meaning you can find the entire movie on YouTube. I can also post it right here for you to watch. Seriously if you haven’t seen it, watch it below.

When I was a kid me and my dear old father used to watch monster movies every year when he was on vacation from work. He was an EMT and worked a lot, so when he went on vacation we would collect a huge pile of movies, usually Godzilla and vampires and stuff. That being said he also introduced me to this movie. It was the first black and white movie I ever watched and also to my knowledge the first zombie movie. My dad died last year of cancer and 2 of my 3 kids don’t really enjoy these types of movies the way me and my old man did, but me and my middle daughter still watched this together. Will also be sure to watch it with my youngest when she is older as well. Which is why this movie is on my list. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Venom Gets 40 Minutes Cut

According to movieweb.com there is a ton of Venom that you won’t be seeing in theaters. About 40 minutes to be exact. Tom Hardy also said some of his favorite scenes also did not make it into the movie which really makes me wonder what did make it into the movie. A lot of people are bit nervous about this one with it being a Spider Man spin-off with no spidey and being separate from the MCU. Tho this does make a potential directors cut or deleted scenes extra on the Blu-ray pretty interesting. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Our Favorites Day 4: Freddy’s Dead

Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991) Day 4 of out favorite movies is actually one me and @torstenvblog greatly disagree on. See i have fond memories of this horror/comedy and greatly enjoy this movie. I understand why so many people don’t, but this was the first movie I saw that showed that a movie could be both horror and comedy successfully. Tho I am greatly disappointed Tom Arnold and Rosanne didn’t get murdered.

The movie itself also had everything I like. Gross deaths? Yup, gotta love the nail on the chalkboard scene. Comedy? Yea I laughed at “The map says we’re fucked” after the kept driving in circles.  The movie’s title was a pretty big lie tho. The final nightmare? Come on there were movies after. Regardless this movie made my half of the list, tho @torstenvblog did mock me a bit as always. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

For those that love the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, here is a collection of the original movies on Amazon. Nightmare on Elm Street Collection
