Mario Likes Movies No. 6: Night of the Lepus (1972)

The Mario Likes Movies team does its best to discuss the dismal 1972 horror film Night of the Lepus, starring an older Janet Leigh, some guys who aren’t James Garner, and absolutely atrocious parenting.  Seriously, sea turtles are more doting parents than the ones seen here.  Plus, if you were under the assumption that adorable bunnies can’t be scary…you were under a fairly correct assumption.  Enjoy!

You’ve Never Seen: Die Hard?!

I consider myself something of a film buff, but I’ll admit that there are some pretty gaping holes in my Film Resumé.  Sure, I saw Don Coscarelli’s Phantasm III when I was thirteen, but I didn’t see any of the original Star Wars movies until 1999.  Heck, I didn’t see Back to The Future until about a month ago when Dave loaned me his box set while I had the flu.

Now, my friends all know that I’ve got eclectic tastes in movies, but they’re still shocked and appalled when they mention a movie like The Goonies and I’m forced to admit I’ve never seen it.  People are shocked, and then disbelief quickly turns to anger: as though I’ve deliberately not watched these movies with the sole purpose of being able to dodge whatever point someone might be trying to make.

So with that in mind, I’ve decided to start watching these movies before people get really mad at me for not having seen them.  And since my husband’s out for a few hours and I have no one else to watch them with me, I’m going to watch them with you: The Internet.So if you want to follow along, I’ll be notating where I am in the movie whenever I have a thought.  I’m not sure if this will actually be entertaining to anyone… you can always skip to the end where I offer some (hopefully) coherent final thoughts on the film as a whole.

Family Friday: Lenny the Wonder Dog

Terrible movies don’t just show up in the forms of bizarre horror, dimly plotted action flicks or failed romantic comedies; in fact, children and families are delivered some of the flimsiest pabulum ever burned onto a disc and projected at a screen as the hapless audiences wave their powdered-cheese covered hands in the air, begging for mercy from a God that has so obviously abandoned them.

Every Friday, Ivan will discuss some of the most bizarre, tiresome, asinine, or just plain bad films targeted to this particular demographic in a segment we call “Family Friday.”
