Castle's House on Haunted Hill.
Really fun, genuinely creepy at times (the blind caretaker's wife can fuck off forever after), and Vincent Price's constant fourth wall breaking asides and stares directly into camera (hell, his presence alone) strike that perfect tonal balance between dread and delight.
The Town that Dreaded Sundown.
The sensationalized version of the spree killings that occurred in post-WW2 Texarkana. It has moments of real tension (especially the home invasion sequence), but why Pierce chose to insert a bunch of silly ass comedic scenes with the bumbling deputy I will never understand. Just when the film settles into the sweet spot of a procedural thriller, that goddamn deputy pops up like a ether-huffing marmot to spoil the whole thing (usually by crashing into something).
For a low budget feature, it has some strong spots, but as an overall picture, it is woefully askew.Me quick one want slow

So Extraterrestrial wasn't a terrible movie, but much like the other flicks from The Vicious Brothers it just can't stick the landing. Ironside was decent in it though. And Emily Perkins is great in anything."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

Life After Beth.
I really enjoyed this. Alot of great people are in it and they all did a great job. Molly Shannon was hilarious, and I enjoyed when Paul Reiser was on screen. Much better than I expected. Plaza put in some solid work. I'll never listen to soft jazz the same way again."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

The Iceman. Michael Shannon was made to play maniac's, as was surprisingly, Chris Evans. Ended much to abruptly for my tastes. Also nice to see Ray Liotta looking half way human again. Dudes facebloat was outta control for a while."Fuck Rob. Also, he has a podcast called Podcaust. Edgy Holocaust humor lulz indeed." - The Faraci

This felt like a first draft of a screenplay. It lays out the ideas but doesn't really flesh them out. Stiller compensates for this lack of depth by over-directing it and trying to give the film a sense of gravitas that really isn't earned by the script.
Also, the basic concept of Walter Mitty is that he's a daydreamer. That concept gets used for the first half hour and then is largely dropped for the remainder of the film. If you're gonna go that route, why even call the film TSLoWM?
