My favorite scene in One Dark Night has to be when that guy almost legit hits a girl's foot with the bike he's riding, and she says something like "Look out."

Otherwise, despite the stellar location, it's mid as fuck fam. :P

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aW6yN-02vVs - 59:34 for bike scene.

Still, that cast, tho...

Michael Gross, Hilary Swank, Patrick Renna, William Morgan Sheppard - what more do you need in life?

Depends on which one you recognize. If you only recognize Renna, then yes. :P

Honestly, with the story and setting, I wish I liked it. Seen it at least twice, though, and it never took.

He hates Michael J and his Republicanism in Family Ties, so no dice on Gross.

I actually quite enjoyed Family Ties almost solely for Gross' character, though I won't deny Fox had his naive charm. :P

I do love 2017's It, but due to it also falling victim to dark cinematographers, I can't justify adding the "+" next to that A grade lol.

Just noticed zombie watched Dorm That Dripped Blood earlier this month. I was planning on watching it my first time within the next week, so hope it's worth it.

Someone's Watching Me has a similar feel to The Morning After. Not that the plots share any resemblance, but the feeling is the same. Hard to explain.

Fired up The First Omen to end the night and Holy shit what a mistake that was. It's 2:30 in the morning and I'm all jazzed up. :P



First Omen Spoilers Ahoy
The final 10 minutes turned an otherwise fairly good movie into a spectacle. I was half expecting this movie to tie into the original Omen at some point and it still blew me away when it finally did. I am so glad I rewatched the original and had it fresh in my mind for this. That picture of Gregory Peck sent a shiver up my back. What an ending.
