"Spectre"

Spectre (1996) is a derivative haunted mansion film more like Poltergeist in plot line, but straight horror, with none of Poltergeists humor or rich characterizations. Alexandra Paul, her husband Greg Evigan and their daughter Briana Evigan move into her ancestral Irish mansion. The couple are not getting along well, evidently because she caught hi cheating. It is pretty clear right away that things in the house are going bump in the night. So, we bring in the priest, and paranormal investigators to cleanse the house after their daughter is swallowed by the evil spirits.

Elizabeth Costelloe shows full frontal in a dream sequence, and Mary Kate Ryan, as one of the paranormal investigators, shows breasts when Paul imagines her having sex with hubby. IMDb readers have this at 4.3 of 10. The special effects are amateurish, and the story is not unique enough to make this an interesting watch. This is a D+, probably not even god enough to interest genre addicts.

    Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)

    Amazingly enough, there have been three watchable zombie movies in the past year or so. Dawn of the Dead, 28 Days Later, and Shaun of the Dead (I'm taking the last one on faith). Considering that there are pretty much no other watchable zombie movies in history (unless you really take a lot of drugs before watching them), I guess it was too much to expect a fourth.

    Whenever the critics and the mass audiences disagree, I almost invariably find myself on the side of the general public. Not this time. This film got savage reviews, and deserved every bit of them, and worse. Yet for reasons completely inexplicable to me, this film has a 6.2 rating at IMDb, and was the #1 film at the box office last week. Crazy! That's absolutely amazing, because this flick is not just sorta bad, it's an abomination. Watching this movie is exactly the same as watching the screen when other people are playing video games. It's people stalking shadows through dark alleys and corridors, followed by zombies grunting and growling outside of locked doors, followed by armed guys blowing away mass quantities of zombies with automatic weapons. Then we see lots of fires and explosions. Then we see guys looking at computer screens with numbers changing rapidly, possibly to see their scores and how many "lives" they have remaining..

    There are super-powered zombies, and regular zombies that just mill around the streets, and king-fu zombies, and zombies with long tongues, and zombies who are heavily armed, and zombies who rise from their graves, and zombie pets, and I don't know what all. I think there were even good guy zombies. Suffice it to say that we are faced with an astoundingly and confusingly rich variety of zombies. Fat zombies, skinny zombies, zombies who climb on rocks. Tough zombies, sissy zombies, even zombies with chicken pox. I don't know whether they all love Armour Hot Dogs, but we truly have a Zombie for All Seasons.

    Other than a record variety of zombie types, this film has just about nothing going for it.

    Unless you like to see Milla Jovovich naked. And topless zombie hookers.

    Which is, now that I think about it, not a bad couple of reasons to watch a movie.

    • Milla (1, 2, 3)
    • Topless zombie hookers (honest!) (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

    • The yellow asterisks indicate that I wrote the review, and am deluded into thinking it includes humor.
    • If there is a white asterisk, it means that there isn't any significant humor, but I inexplicably determined there might be something else of interest.
    • A blue asterisk indicates the review is written by Tuna (or Junior or Brainscan, or somebody else besides me)

    .wmv files made by Scoop from Shiloh's .avi's.

    NOTE: because of a unique combination of circumstances with the Windows media player and some substantial bandwidth theft, we will have to do all of our movie files in zip format. Left click on the files as you normally would to view a picture. When you get a choice, click on "save", and put it on your hard drive in the directory of your choice. UnZIP and play from there.

    I know this is not especially convenient, but it allows the film clips to continue. I can protect .zip files from hot-linking in the same way I can protect still images. For some reason, if I protect .avis and .wmvs from hot-linking, they will not play in the Windows media player, and I can't get a satisfactory work-around. Perhaps I will find a better solution, but for now this new policy allows you to continue getting the movie clips you want to see, which is much preferable to my abandoning the clips altogether.

    You don't know who she is? Sure you do. Gold-fing-ah! She wasn't naked in The Girl Hunters, but you didn't see that much nudity in mainstream films in 1963. She did spend the entire film in a bikini! The four clips are almost identical. Only the bikinis have been changed to protect the innocent.

    • WTF? It's not often I'm totally lost on these, but I don't know who Suzy McCoppin is, and I never heard of a TV show called Entourage. I guess TV Shows is not going to be my best category on Jeopardy. I looked it up, and it might be pretty cool because it stars one of our favorites, the ever insincere Jeremy Piven. Anyway, Suzy got naked in the show, so it's got that goin' for it. . (.avi zipped) (.wmv zipped).

    Perhaps these tips will help if you have trouble with the codecs for these movies:

    Shiloh says:

    FYI when I hypercam vids to make the file size smaller I use DivX MPEG-4 Fast-Motion for the video compressor, then I use virtualdub to compress the audio. The properties for the vids says the video codec:  DivX Decoder Filter & audio codec:  Morgan Stream Switcher which I'm not familiar with. When I compress the audio with virtualdub I use MPEG Layer-3.  A friend of mine told me about compressing the audio about (6) mos. ago. Like I said previously, only been capping for a year & a half & I'm no expert. Hopefully this info will help members with the proper codecs for my vids.
     
    When I cap big brother's I use hypercam mostly & sdp & asfrecorder if the set up allows me. I stopped using camtasia cause the file sizes were always too big, could never figure out the process, over my head lol, plus it cost too much to buy in my opinion.

    A reader says:

    You mentioned that some users were having trouble with the videos on your site. There is a tool designed to determine what codec is needed for a video. http://www.headbands.com/gspot/ Hope this is useful to you or your users.

    Scoop says:

    I made the .wmv versions of each video. The codecs for these: Windows Video V8, Windows Audio 9. The upside of these is that you know the codecs, and they'll play in the Windows Media Player. The downside is that they are slightly larger, and slightly lower quality.

    'Caps and comments by Brainscan:

    A few fundamental questions have been debated since the dawn of human consciousness: such as, when was the dawn of human consciousness? And why, in a world made by a good and perfect God, does evil or Dick Cheney exist? And... my favorite... how bad does a movie have to be that a lockerroom of six nekkid women and two girl-girl scenes can't save it? Forbidden Zone: Alien Abduction (1996) attempts to answer the last of these. Does a damn good job of it, too.

    Movie starts with a naked gal swimming in a pool. That would be Floriela Grapinni. She gets out of the pool and ogles a woman who's just come into the place: the first sign this is going to be a movie with heavy lesbotronic overtones.

    Woman she ogles is played by Meredyth Holmes, a pale blonde with an interesting face and...if you don't mind me saying so... a killer rack. She gets her kit off, lolls around and imagines a funny looking dude is doing 'er right there. pool-side.

    Enter Darcy DeMoss, former Hefmate Pia Reyes (how I love the way that woman looks...surprisingly tall, with legs up to her ears and a body to study like finals were just around the corner) and two other friends with Eastern European names.

    They start to talk, and they talk and talk and, when they are done, they talk some more. Shit, I wanna hear a naked babe talk my ears clean off I'll wait to the missus is in the tub and ask her how her day went.

    Couple of times the movie cuts away to show you what one of the gals is talking about. And here is where things get tres confusing. Like one of them, played by Alina Chivelescu tells about a massage she got, but the gal getting the massage in the movie is Darcy DeMoss. Thought I'd gone crazy or something very much like that. Went back and checked, and yah, you betcha, it was Darcy frigging DeMoss acting out Alina's story. WTF? Anyway, it is a twofer... you get to see Alina topless and Darcy topless, so far be it for me to piss and moan.

    So, anywho, Alina tells her story and a second gal, a redhead named Carmen Lacatus tells hers and then throws off her towel and jumps into the pool at the end, so everything is just dandy, you know.

    That leaves Pia, Darcy and Meredyth. Seems the three of them were stranded on a lonely road together some time back and their stories of erotic fantasies start to intersect. Each knows what one is about to say, as though each had been in the same place at the same time. The fantasies involve some unhappy boy-girl things for Pia and a weird-ass girl-girl thing for Darcy, complete with a nekkid friend (Laura Ilica) and a topless dancer (Alice Balaianu).

    At that point, Meredyth figures it out. Well, that's not the right phraseology. She figures it out the same way that old broad did on Murder She Wrote or that Monk guy does on TV, which means she reaches into her ass up to her elbow and pulls out the most far-fetched explanation since Powell went to the U.N.

    Seems the three of them were abducted by an alien. He allowed Darcy and Pia to find what they really wanted in a sexual relationship. That would be: one another. So they do the lesbo-lite routine. And Meredyth? Why, shoot, she always wanted to hump an alien, and he is oh so happy to oblige. So rather than do the usual, alien anal-probe activity with an inanimate object, he uses something a tad more personal.

    And thar ya go. A pretty poor half-hour funky cable show padded with sixty minutes of towel-clad women yakking like there is no fucking tomorrow. Sound like your cup of tea? Well, then, bucko: have at it. As for me, I've seen it twice now... capped it from videotape a long while ago and now from DVD... so my quota of listening to boring, far-fetched gal stories is used up for something approaching a decade.

    Today from the Ghost...a few vids (zipped .wmvs) of Skinemax babe Regina Russell in scenes from "Scandal: Sweet Revenge" (2001)

    Here's a breakdown of the clips.
    Links 1 and 2 are from the same love scene and feature breasts and bum, with slow moving pseudo-sex.

    Links 3-5 are from another sex scene. Different dude and slightly more energetic pseudo-sex. There are also a few near miss pube views.

    Link #6. Dude #1 again. Toplessness and some partial rear views. No pseudo-sex.

    Links 7-8...also with the first dude, and also a very slow moving scene. Mostly we see breasts, but there is a very clear pube view in #1.

    "BAADASSSSS!"
    Mario Van Peebles plays his father Melvin in this 2003 homage to his father's ground-breaking 1971 film Sweet Sweetback's Baad Asssss Song which Melvin directed, wrote, and starred in. The film, which beat Shaft by a few months, broke the mold for black films by showing blacks as real people with real problems, and not just shuffling idiots with no brain, like early portrayals of blacks in films often did.

    There were all sorts of problems making the film, including loss of financial backing, and Melvin used every last cent of his own to get it done. In addition, there were a lot of conflicts with the establishment, and within the unlikely crew he assembled to make the picture.

    This is a fascinating look at early black filmmaking, and although not a high-action film, is very entertaining.

    Kirsten Dunst New in theaters this weekend! Watty 'caps of Kirsten showing a little cleavage, and nekkid behind a shower curtain in scenes from "Wimbledon". The shower curtain scene shows off her shape, but no goodies.

    Christiane Henschel 'Caps and comments by UC99:
    Christiane Henschel was the German Heffer o' the month for August '04. When I saw her pics I remembered: In 2001, "Chrissie (21)", together with Anja, Andrea, Carmen und Kathrin, was a member of "Naked", a "music group" that was promoted as "Germany's first topless band". Well - there were no debates about their musical talents. As far as I know they produced only one single, appeared several times on TV - and disappeared ...I had stored some caps, tried to make the best out of it - hope you enjoy the result.

    BLOMBOS' BIMBOS: CAVEMEN HAD BLING-BLING
    It's Joan Collins' Jewelry! - New Scientist magazine reports that cavemen invented bling-bling. In a cave in Blombos, South Africa, scientists found beads, jewelry and ornaments believed to be 77,000-year-old status symbols. The reports says that prestige goods could be the first step on the road to modern civilization. It was thought that interest in fancy accessories started about 40,000 years ago, but this shows that even the earliest nomadic hunters used bling to establish a pecking order, which means they were more civilized than we knew.

  • If bling is a sign of being civilized, then explain the East Coast/West Coast gangsta rapper feud.
  • Everyone already knew that Wilma Flintstone wore a necklace.
  • The first really big rock given as an accessory came from a caveman named Kobe.


    ORAL SEX THE LAZY WAY
    Perfect? That's Hard To Swallow - Pravda reports that a new device has gone on sale in Moscow called the "Lazy Thing" that supposedly makes it easy for a woman to give perfect oral sex. It's a vibrating latex cylinder that a woman can put in her mouth, and it supposedly pleases her partner all by itself. The woman doesn't even have to move. Pravda said, "A woman may relax and think about a new pair of shoes she has seen in a store, for instance."

  • News flash: that's what she was thinking about during regular oral sex.
  • She's thinking, "From now on, I get all the shoes I want."
  • Of course, if a man doesn't want to pay for her shoes, he could just buy this device and then he wouldn't need a woman at all.


    TIGGER-TURNED-GOOFY SUSPENDED AGAIN
    Disney Is Just Being Grumpy - Walt Disney World employee Michael Chartrand, who was acquitted of charges that he touched a teenage girl's breast while dressed as Tigger, has been suspended again. This time, he's accused of shoving two photographers while dressed as Goofy. His lawyer claims he "has a bullseye on him" because Disney wants to get rid of him, and the shoving was just routine horseplay. He said, "Of course he was goofing around -- because he was Goofy!"

  • Sounds like he's using a Goofy legal defense.
  • And maybe he did drugs a few times -- but only when he was Dopey!
  • Next, he wants to be Donald Duck, so he can go without pants.
  • He has a bullseye on him? That sounds more like a Warner Brothers cartoon.


    HEFNER INDUCTED INTO EROTIC MUSEUM
    Museum Piece - Tuesday, in a ceremony hosted by Bill Maher, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner became the first inductee into the Erotic Museum of Hollywood's Hall of Fame. The museum called him "one of the most democratizing forces in sexuality" and said his "brand of preened perfection became the standard of beauty for a nation." Hef donated some artifacts to his exhibit, including a pair of pajamas, slippers, a pipe and a Bunny costume.

  • And an industrial-strength airbrush.
  • And a pair of 36DD breast implants.
  • The most democratizing force in sexuality? That would be Viagra.
  • Bill Maher just wanted to shake Hef's hand, but Hef declined.
