I remember it well from my days of reading DC Comics in the 1980s. Did any fundamentalist types ever try to use that as proof positive that DC's comics were satanic?

I never got the tagline for Suspiria, "The Only Thing More Terrifying Than The Last 12 Minutes Of This Film Are The First 92." It seems like they're advertising it as a series of diminishing returns.
Apart from the opening sequence, there is one other really good thing about Darkness Falls, and it's the following dialogue exchange:
And that's part of the heavy-handed metaphor, and if I'm remembering correctly, there's no explanation for how she can resist the peen-monster except on the metaphorical level.
I'm not sure I'd call the episode with the heavy-handed metaphor for Buffy's inability to tear herself from a horrible relationship being represented by a penis monster a series highlight. "Gone" was pretty good, though.
I'd read an interview with Paul W.S. Anderson before the release of Event Horizon, so I knew to expect a full-on horror movie. (In fact, it hyped me for it even more.)
He's a riddle wrapped in an enigkma.
The Last Stand was also better than DOFP, for what it's worth.
And then John Wick came along and made Kersey look like a friggin' amateur!
Listen up, you undapants! Who wants get…
Those first two albums especially are out and out classics.
I think season six of 24 especially suffers due to the fact that it directly follows what is, in my opinion, the absolute best season of the series. Season five was probably the only one in which it felt like the writers sat down and planned out the entire arc beforehand without resorting to a shitload of unrelated…
I'm sure that was the intent. That said, there was an alternate ending shot in which she survived, so maybe no one had told her at that point which one was going to be used.
They're both dumb. It's part of the charm.
I liked both. Olympus Has Fallen was better.
Bingo!
Perhaps I missed it by reading the review too quickly, but I'd be curious to see Ignatiy's opinion of the previous film. I had a fun time with Olympus Has Fallen, and if someone who felt similarly said London is skippable, I'd be apt to trust their judgment.
Also the music video for "Beat It" until goddamned Michael Jackson had to interrupt it with his peacemaking singing and dancing.
I honestly think that role would have been helped by being played by someone even bigger, someone with real movie star baggage. Think Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise, someone who—unless you were familiar with the comic—audiences would never dream would play the villain in a superhero movie.
I was actually just wondering if just having a face that resembles Tom Jane's somehow makes one an asshole because Tom Jane is, in fact, an asshole.
