I have BBC's Persuasion on, but I can't really get into. I've heard thought that BBC's Sense & Sensibility is good. Of course I"ve watched the Ang Lee Emma Thompson version which is superb... I may get it this week to see :P
Terror Trap
Hatchet II
Gore movies! :)
I just added Troll 2 to my queue because I remember all the awesome reviews people here have given the film. Haha!

Augh, that reminds me. Did anyone else attempt to watch Troll Hunter on Netflix streaming? We tried to watch it (enthusiastically, even!) a few weeks ago, and could not get into it. What's the deal with trolls, anyway? I guess they are the antagonists of a handful of fairy tales, so that's generally unflattering concept, but I can't get behind the notion that they should cause terror.
I'm with you, 9FS. I mean, from what I know of mythology and folklore, trolls are ugly, smelly and stupid, and that's about it. In the stories they usually try to make trouble and end up having it bite them in the butt. So nu?
Troll 2 is the best B horror movie ever made. EVER. It's incredible.

Why?? I don't understand this. I've seen much better 'bad' movies...I could not come close to finishing Troll 2.
What on earth could you think was better than Troll 2?

Most anything else, ever.
You're going to have to start naming names, missy.
Ok, the movie I just watched, Terror Beneath (2, borderline 1) was better than Troll 2! Why is Troll 2 so good? I found it quite annoying.
ninefatstalks & AC - I'm not sure of the troll/Troll 2 obsession. I just know I love awful B-movie horror films. :)
Today I watched:
Conan O'Brien Can't Stop - A documentary on Conan's stand-up act that he took nationwide when he left NBC.
Vanishing of the Bees - A documentary about the Colony Collapse Disorder that affected thousands upon thousands of bees in the world. The problem? Corporations like Monsanto fucking with crops while ultimately hurting the agriculture. In this movie Bayer was the reason for the bee problem.
I Need That Record! - A documentary about the greed of record labels hurting the artist as well as the independent record store..which ultimately comes back to hurt the record labels for shoveling a bunch of shit. Power to the artist!
Fall From Grace - A documentary about the Phelps family and the Westboro Baptist Church Cult.
The Price of Pleasure - A documentary about the porn industry affecting sexual identity and relationships and the harm it may cause. It also discussed the violence against and the degradation of women. This movie really opened my eyes to the sick despicableness towards women in porn and how it carries over into our society. We should stop the want and/or need of such products and the commercialization of such garbage that I saw in this film.

That's what trolls do best, I guess...be dumb and annoying. Even on the Net! ;D
Best Worst Movie is a great doc. about Troll 2!
I watched Something Borrowed.....cute, but predictable
The Man That Fell to Earth, a David Bowie movie from the 70's. Really bad!

It was awful when it came out...I was around then...I can hardly imagine what it looks like to modern eyes! Does it qualify for "so bad it's good", or is it just...pathetic?
I am sitting here impatiently waiting for my DVDs to turn up from Amazon!! Season 2 of Dharma and Greg, the full series of Bill Cosby, and an English animation thing.
it's so bad it's bad!! and really long......

Hmm. I've had that on my DVR for a while. Been meaning to carve out the time (and mood) to watch it.

I haven't seen Troll 1 or Troll 2 (or Leprechaun or Elf, for that matter), but I feel confident proclaiming that TERROR ON TOUR is better.
I watched Sunrise, an old silent movie last night. Really good, and ahead of it's time in alot of ways.
On second season of Sons of Anarchy.....love!!!

I saw that over ten years ago for the first time, and I am still disturbed and scarred by naked aliens.

Haha, another one languishing on my DVR!
The Others
Really enjoyed it! Interesting, kinda classic feeling. Twisty! Recommend it for a creepy, yet tame suspense type.
also watching Ruby season 3 :D
I had kinda forgotten about The Office after season 7, but watched season 8 so far, and it's pretty good!
