This movie is slow as shit. Somebody TALK TO ME so I don't fall asleep!

I guess it wasn't bad. Ultimately disappointed though.

I wasn't disappointed but it did end up with a B grade down from my original B+

Going with a 5.2/10

But it will get a rewatch at some point because I feel like I can understand the likability.

No. There's a Sir Mix A Lot reference in there somewhere.

It's on youtube.

Was going to start the morning with Deadly Games - had a nice Blu-ray rip video from YouTube prepared to go - but it's been privated, and now the only video up I see is the cut version (ten minutes less time). I don't really have the money to spend on a Blu-ray (especially for a movie I don't know if I'll care for), but might not have a choice if I want to get this one in.

Could rent it on Amazon Prime, I guess - they list the 1 hr 35 min running time - but I've had issues trusting Prime in the past.

Regardless, instead going with The Icebox Murders (1982).

very cool. now everyone can watch it!

sorry you didn't like talk to me, jason. i didn't think it was slow at all. but i guess i can get that criticism.

i'm starting the morning with the nest of the cuckoo birds.

is nicolas winding refn the one that found it? what's his involvement?

Not sure, but here's some backstory on how it was found. https://bynwr.com/videos/the-nest-of-the-cuckoo-birds

Always interesting stuff to me, when a movie's lost and decades later, manages to survive.

Here's a quote from https://videowatchdogblog.blogspot.com/ ... iewed.html:

"Refn - reknowned Danish director of such films as THE NEON DEMON and DRIVE and the winner of a similar eBay auction that left him the owner of Andy Milligan's celluloid rarities and scraps - has now unveiled THE NEST OF THE CUCKOO BIRDS absolutely free - as the opening salvo of his forthcoming byNWR.com streaming site, which premiered last night in piggy-back fashion on the art film streaming site MUBI. Dale Berry's HOT THRILLS AND WARM CHILLS (1967), restored with materials from the Something Weird Video collection, will be premiering in a few days. Refn's channel will be premiering independently next February."

it's too bad that hot thrills and warm chills isn't a horror film too.

this is edited so strangely.

Yeah, it's definitely unique. The beginning made it seem like we'd see him undercover with a bunch of moon-shiners, but we immediately skip all of that and go to him wandering through the swamps. Bizarre option. Had to have been a better way to set him in a swamp than that.

uh huh. it's kind of jarring. i think this could have been a cool little indie horror, if it was put together more coherently.

we overtook the challenge thread for 2023 already. nice.
