Many Many More Movies

Now that I've seen Blind Horizon and Karate Dog, I feel it's time to turn to you, dear readers, once more. My Netflix queue is in need of some changing. Which one of these films should move to the top of the list?

Point Doom
Grieco and Dice Clay in the same film. There's also something about a love triangle and fleeing the city or something like that. Who cares? Grieco and Dice Clay battle it out over the same chick. That's every woman's fantasy, right? (also stars Ice-T and Angie Everhart)

Revenge of the Red Baron
A young Toby Maguire and an old Mickey Rooney have to fight off a model plane that is possessed by the spirit of the Red Baron. Seems that old Mick killed the Baron back in WWI. Also seems that a cheap puppet plays the spirit of the Baron. (this was suggested by a friend of mine who swears it's the worst film he's ever seen.)

Face the Evil: No Contest II: Access Denied
That's the best fucking title ever. Oh, and it's got Lance Henriksen, Shannon Tweed, an art gallery heist, and some stolen Nazi nerve gas.

The Ape
Nothing I can say compares to the description they use to actually try to sell this piece of shit. Here it is:

"Determined to write the next great American novel, family man Harry Walker (James Franco, also directing his feature film debut) leaves his job as a corporate scrub, moves out of his house and rents an apartment to help him focus. But when he unexpectedly discovers he has a roommate -- a trash-talking gorilla with an affinity for Hawaiian shirts -- Harry's plans go down the drain. Brian Lally portrays the scatological simian." (From Netflix)

Please let me know what I should check out first. Voting will last through Monday. Have a good weekend. Go Mavs!

Just exactly does James Franco think he is? Sure, he's a looker. Sure, he pulls off sensitive/evil-to-be in Spidermen 1 y 2. Sure, he won lots of Hollywood awards for playing Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean...but a director...of a film called THE APE?!? I say we give this p-o-s the Grieco treatment and show Franco who's boss.

obviously, Face the Evil: No Contest II: Access Denied

man.

the ape is too mainstream. you need to check out the Onion's "commentary tracks of the damned" on this film though,,,

I'm going with the Red Baron. The Ape sounds good, but you just watched Karate Dog. You need a break from trash-talking animal sidekicks. Face the Evil sounds awesome, too, but I really wanna see how a drunken Rooney handles that young go-getter Maguire. Plus the puppet sounds cool.

I'm siding with bts on this one. Best title since Wasterape 2: Population Cops. (or is it Wasterape 3?)

And Henricksen, whose name I just realized I misspelled throughout my guest post. How humiliating.
