Humanoids From the Deep

Monster! (Humanoids From the Deep) - in which the terror of Jaws is actually giant fish guys who will rape you. In a small town, in a fishing community, locals are preparing for a new cannery, but there appears to be some infighting about it. Well, the local Native American is opposed to the new plant and its science chemicals, but the town leaders call him some racial slurs at the Friday Night Fish Fry, and a fist fight break out. Our main character is a nice white guy who wants the cannery, but can't abide by doing racist shit to this nice neighbor. The violence starts early, with a graphic onscreen dog murder, followed quickly by several more canine corpses littered around the docks. Dog remains are found in a Chrissy-like pile on the dunes. Then, a cute couple has sex on the beach, only to be attacked by these fish monsters! The woman is raped, and the guy is murdered. Further down the beach, another woman is raped. The town folks figure out there are some dangerous things out there, and the white guy teams up with the Indian to fight them. They set some traps, and the fish monsters figure them out, and kill the Indian! Oh-no! Then, the fish monsters all come ashore during the big town carnival, and they run amok. The towns folk respond by beating and shooting to death all of the fish monsters. Even the racist mayor saves some ethnically ambiguous kids. Meanwhile, in a hospital, one of the fish rape victims gives explosive birth to a baby human salmon hybrid, Alien-style, and she does not survive. However, in the end, the fish monsters are defeated, and the women of the town are safe. They will have to get new dogs, though.

Event Horizon

Event Horizon - in which sci fi space body horror gets very fucking real, and totally gross. First, Lawrence Fishburne is a space captain named Miller, and his first mate is Joely Richardson, and she rocks. Her accent is real. A bunch of space sailors are escorting science genius Sam Neill to the wreckage of a space ship. It wasn't just a space ship, it was a massive black hole generating machine, and it recently re-emerged around Neptune, and now its just orbiting, being spooky af. To give all the details, Sam Neill, AKA Dr. Weir, is having creepy dreams about his dead wife in his cryo/gravi-sleep pod before they even get to the abandoned wreck. Oh, its called the Event Horizon. So, once the crew rolls up on Event Horizon they get nervous, because its creepy, and a few people go out to investigate the empty ship. Miller orders Dr. Weir to stay aboard their vessel, and he doesn't do a good job of listening. As soon as the crew splits up, one young guy gets sucked into the g

The Abyss

The Abyss - in which James Cameron writes a love letter to the ocean, and the ocean answers, "Here are some aliens." Ed Harris plays a scientist who is happy to be in an underwater Sea Lab (cue theme song) even though his mean wife comes to visit and be a cold bitch to him. A plot happens, but its been weeks, so I forget what it was. Ed Harris is bull headed, and only his wife can get through to him. The crew is enjoyable. Oh! Michael Bean shows up after an oil rig problem and gets pressure sickness and tries to kill everyone. In an effort to escape and save everyone, Ed Harris gets his swimmer craft stuck in a chasm, but some nice aliens lift him out in a spectacular light show of kindness. The aliens invade the SeaLab as water/people and try to be nice, with moderate success.A few people die, but most live. Good movie, watch again.

Death Wish

Death Wish (1974) - in which the justice system fails a man who lost his family, and he goes off the rails in finding personal justice. I mean vengeance. Charles Bronson plays Paul Kersey, a husband and father and architect, who has a nice NYC life. One day, near the beginning of the movie, Paul's wife is murdered and his daughter is raped into a catatonic state, from which she will not likely recover. Sexist. Anyways, Paul is destroyed, so his boss sends him out to New Mexico, or another lawless state, for a 3 month long project. Paul does some recovering while he is out there, and is befriended by his big money client, with a big hat and big guns. Upon arriving back in NYC, Paul is disheartened to find his daughter in terrible condition, and his son-in-law coping poorly. There have also been no arrests in his wife's murder, as the police are very busy with a crime spree related to gang violence. Paul is a really sympathetic guy, and his pain is visible, and very real. So,
