| Favorite movies | Really into 70s Blaxploitation flix at the moment after seeing Coffy the other month ive now seen Foxy Brown, Black Mama White Mama, The Mack, Cotton Comes To Harlem, Hell Up In Harlem, Across 110th Street, Detroit 9000. Most Exploitation flix really. Good horror but not slasher prefer suspense, Some spaghetti westerns are decent like Django etc, Anything David Lynch, Anything Hitchcock, Scorscese, Argento, Rodriguez & Tarantino. Really liked Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind thought that was brilliant, i love Amelie, Anything with Bill Murray in it Groundhog Day, Lost In Translation, The Life Aquatic, Broken Flowers, What About Bob etc etc. Old school Martial Arts flix like Lone Wolf and Cub, Drunken Master etc etc. Funny light hearted shit like Road Trip, American Pie, Freddy Got Fingered etc. Twisted comedy trash films like Pink Flamingos etc infact anything John Waters did is bound to be classic especially the ones with Devine. Basically anything from the 60s-70s starring Jack Nicholson, Anything from 70s-90s starring Deniro. Brian De Palma is probably my all time favourite director |
