Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

Guido shot first morelike

Had a hard time getting into My Winnipeg, but man, Black Narcissus blew me away. I think I need to re-watch that on blue ray.

Just added Enter The Void to my instant queue. Not sure if it will be any good though....

Collapse documentary. Really good.

Dogtooth is up.

This TV movie where Cloris Leachman gets a venereal disease is on WI:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073729/

Exam - kind of the perfect B movie for streaming netflix imo. Quasi twilight zone, 8 strangers in a room together must figure out the mystery, etc.

yeah i really dug exam actually - another great example of the how the best possible solution to no budget = film in one room dummy

that idea also gave the world the genius club however

Whoa, the genius club looks amazing.

Julia - with Tilda Swinton at her most mesmerizing. Feels almost like a condensed season of Breaking Bad with all the escalating, crazy plot turns and terrible decisions. There is really no reason this shouldn't be a mainstream hit.

ok i am watching this and it is quite disturbing - what r u doing 2 me

watched 'following sean' docu earlier - follow up to that famous one where the 4 y/o claimed to smoke weed on the haight in the 60s - theres some lame baby boom self interest operating but its p touching re the passage of time irl etc

I started watching "Trash" but was not prepared for the seemingly interminable shots of Dallesandro's flaccid dong. It is amazing I can watch this shit on my 360 though.

lots of horror movies on instant

had a double featch of hellraiser and hellraiser 2 the other night.

92 In The Shade (never on DVD, oop on VHS since the 80s) is up!

The surreal Hungarian film Taxidermia is recommended for fans of the grotesque. Something like Jeunet & Caro doing body-horror, or conversely Cronenberg played for laughs.

or conversely Cronenberg played for laughs.

so like eXistenZ?

In parts Taxidermia has the clinical eye of Shivers or Videodrome, but there's a bit of "Middle Age" from Monty Python's Meaning of Life in there too.

I watched Genius Club, and it is definitely my favorite so-bad-its movie in quite awhile. Highly recommended to fellow trashophiles.

Exam was :-/ ugh, don't get me started.

Watched the Mad Max trilogy. I'd rank them in chrono order, however Tina T. is freaking hot in MMBT, dayumn.

watching some frontlines over here, taliban behind enemy lines is excellent, for profit higher ed is just like ugh def captures something abt the current moment

looking forward to still bill

Just watched Straight Time - entertaining, gritty 70's heist flick. Awesome cast - Dustin Hoffman, Harry Dean Stanton, Gary Busey, M. Emmet Walsh, and Kathy Bates.

*adds to queue*

i fell asleep watching enter the void last night. surprisingly did not have psychedelic dreams.

gonna watch dogtooth tonight or tomorrow in honor of dr. morbz!

queued up both of those recently

Paycheck is a c-grade Bourne/Inception-esque Affleck/Uma vehicle... Uma has never looked worse.

Bottle Shock was not horrible. Rickman is awesome.

new mitchell and webb... and what is pulling and men behaving badly?
UK types? anybody know?

paycheck is ott ridic woo/dick fiasco, i will watch basically any movie in the convoluted paranoid dystopian scifi sphere

yes, Minority Report meets Bourne meets Inception but really awful version thereof.

haha yes it is so bad

not seen pulling but Men behaving badly is a pretty awful Bloke sitcom.

Been catching up on Saxondale. As an American who's met loads of Anglophiles, it's especially amusing that he's an Americanphile (is there a word for it?), with the Mach 1 'Stang and "U.S.A." t-shirts and all.

UHF is streaming, so that's always a good time.

Saxondale is fucking awesome

Recommendation for geeky romantics:

Thomas in Love (2001). Belgian sci-fi about an agoraphobe seeking love on-line, presented entirely from his screen.

does Saxondale look terrible for anybody else? I watched about ten minutes of it - almost seemed like it was going to be a British Eastbound & Down or something. I can't get past the poor quality, though.

plays fine for me.

watched 'last embrace' dir. jonathan demme - apes hitchcock in abt a dozen diff ways, is still decent - roy scheiders a pretty captivating leading man

"Just watched Straight Time - entertaining, gritty 70's heist flick. Awesome cast - Dustin Hoffman, Harry Dean Stanton, Gary Busey, M. Emmet Walsh, and Kathy Bates."

One of my favorite movies.

At the risk of spamming the board about this movie, of you like smart horror movies " black Christmas" from 1974 is totally amazing.

Directed by the guy who did a A Christmas Story!

...and Porky's!

and this one

poll

also wtf at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382028/

check out the wind journeys if you are a fan of cinematography or latin american magical realism

about a teenager accompanying an accordion player across colombia to return his devil-possessed accordion to his former teacher

story kind of meandering but it looks fantastic

Straight Time contains my favorite Dustin Hoffman performance.

Full version of Oliver Assayas' Carlos posted today.

straight time was great!

kinda not surprised the wiki sez this:

Michael Mann also contributed to the screenplay but was uncredited upon the film's release. The novel later served as a source of reference for the character Neil McCauley in Mann's 1995 film Heat[citation needed].

That content includes “Medium,” which was recently canceled; “Flashpoint,” which is shared with CTV in Canada; and a raft of old shows like “Frasier,” “Family Ties” and “Cheers.” (Some of the shows included in the package are associated with other networks, but were distributed by CBS’s studio.)
