Usually, he doesn't have to push at all. It just kind of happens all on its own.

Witnesses describing the incident say Jones "ran up on" the victim and "pulled a Rambo." At press time, the status of Jones's $3700 lynx coat is unknown.

It didn't fit because he tried putting it on over a latex glove. It had to be the dumbest thing the prosecution did, letting the defense control the evidence like that.

He used to be "one of the good ones" but I'm pretty sure he's out of money now.

So he doesn't get to tell stories about the place he spent most of his life and presumably knows best because you're sick of it?

"Nah, it's cool, you got this."—all the other boroughs

"Don't you mean East Williamsburg?"—somebody who paid a rental agency waaaaaaaay too much money for their one-bedroom apartment

The movie was written by Stakeland/Cold In July writer/costar Nick Damici, Hell's Kitchen born and raised and still a permanent New York resident.

Like, on purpose even.

We must never forget that, in addition to being perverted and predatory, R. Kelly is also deeply, deeply stupid.

Sure, everybody always says New York is like a character in the movie, but does it ever get a sex scene?

Most classic slashers are avenging some (real or perceived) wrong, but the way they're going about it removes any chance for audience identification. Yes, Jason was allowed to drown by negligent camp counsellors, but the people he's killing had nothing to do with that so you don't really sympathize with him. You can…

"Don't deny it! You're a sick fuck for taking 90 minutes out of your life to watch a film I spent a year of my life making!"

They had more "excuses" than "reasons." You get the feeling with these slasher guys that if it wasn't one thing it'd be another.

There's so much crazy shit in that movie. Patrick Stewart once said that Hooper was his favorite director he'd ever worked with because he felt like he could go totally nuts and it would be okay.

And the killer is both sympathetic and legitimately frightening. I can't think of any other slasher movies that pulled that off.

All his movies are. It takes a few viewings to see how hilarious TCM is, but once you do, it's endlessly quotable.

I always felt that Funny Games was projecting his own lack of empathy onto the audience. He's like "Ha ha, society, I am showing you how you are rooting for violence" and we're like, "No, asshole, we just want to see the nice lady escape the lunatics."

TCM2 might be his masterpiece. It's just the most vicious, mean little bastard of a movie. Nobody else would have (or could have) brought it there. Of all the classic horror masters, Hooper was the only one with a real sense of madness and nihilism. It makes his best work feel dangerous in a way that Carpenter or even…

Even his big(ger)-budget work has that thing I'm talking about. Lifeforce is just like "Here is a naked space vampire walking down a hallway. Deal with it." Not in a style-less way, but in a way that emphasizes the incongruity without calling attention to it.
