Why Men Don't Approach Women Anymore

Another Double Stinker for a Sunday evening

Another Double Stinker for a Sunday evening First: Bandit Queen (1950) https://youtu.be/xAmhaehaP0I?si=f6g9ghoQ8sizwdS7 A young woman comes home in time to witness her parents get murdered by a sheriff in cahoots with a local land grabber.... She takes the whip used to murder her father & learns to use it while living at the local Spanish Mission.... She later rallies some locals to help her steal back stolen gold, & extract vengeance on the men who killed her parents.... A wee bit more preachy than The Master Gunfighter(1975), but much more enjoyable.... Second: BLACK MOUNTAIN (2025) https://youtu.be/26rVcPJ71NE?si=FljhxGAkpExmEpEA So, a couple of researchers get turned down for some grant, which somehow has to to with something in a rural town that turns the locals into paranoid cannibals, while giving outsiders appendicitis..... The audio is abysmal, which only serves to exacerbate the extremely regional dialect & weakly delivered lines... Key scenes have been cut out for no reason, and I was enticed to watch by a grossly inaccurate summary in the description bar.... Ultimately, I had no idea what this movie was about!!!

Twin stinkers for Sunday afternoon

Two-fer for a Sunday afternoon..... The first being We Lived Alone: The Connie Converse Documentary https://youtu.be/Yx1hlEbvQxw?si=7FPlWlcwkgwB9cTA The story about a multitalented woman who failed as a '50s folk singer, disappeared in 1974, then rediscovered in 2003.... Leaves out some details that the viewer may need to read up on first..... The second was SPACE RANGER ORIGIN (2025) https://youtu.be/28oCp0l_ms8?si=E_uLkjE7SPuSq5Gk About a female war veteran who gets a mission to go back & time & destroy the program that created her.... Slow paced, even at less than an hour, spends most of it's time pontificating about futzing around with the space time continuum.... Lots of green screen & CGI that looks like an ad for a video game, and an incredibly confusing story.....

I don't think she's MAGA

Tonight's Stinker: LIGHT YEARS (1986)

Tonight's Stinker LIGHT YEARS (1986) https://youtu.be/koUpDfnq_zc?si=tLUPgOgbDicmWeKG http://www.badmovies.org/movies/lightyears/ Peaceful people living off nature are attacked by lasers that turn them into stone.... News of this reaches an alien capital, who send a young agent to investigate.... He first encounters a group of mutants, who were created at the capital a thousand years earlier, then discarded for being ugly... He learns that the attackers are an army of robots who worship a giant brain.... But the brain wants to help him, but the agent needs to sleep for a thousand years so that the brain will be older & weaker... From a really bad VHS rip... Slow & plodding at times, mostly confusing..... This is one of those movies that back in the days of VHS rental stores, I'd read the back cover & put it back, & walk past it on future visits..... Then I read about it on the internet...... The style kept reminding me of Fantastic Planet(1973), & I couldn't stop thinking about that....

Tonight's Stinker: The Vampire Bat (1933)

Tonight's Stinker The Vampire Bat (1933) https://youtu.be/IctQwO6YYpQ?si=PyZ58SAiSCz1-mw7 In a small German town, a serial killer is leaving victims with neck wounds, drained of blood during an infestation of bats..... Naturally, the locals speak of vampires, & citing historic examples of one... Fingers are quickly pointed at the wild eyed village idiot who keeps bats for pets... But after he's killed, we find out it's really the local doctor, who needs the blood for a breathing potato in a fish tank.... Not too bad.... Really cool scene in this print, about halfway through, where they computer colorized the flames of torches wielded by angry peasants....

Just when I think these mfers can't go any LOWER, they go ahead and surp...
