Title: To be Hooper is dead, alas.
Post by: Schwartzwald on August 27, 2017, 07:58:11 PM
First off I know my autocorrect automatically fucked up the name to be in the title. I looked at it and just said "fuck you I refuse to go back and fix it." Also " Fuck you again for misspelling it in the line above too."

Anyway, the director of the Texas chainsaw massacre, a movie I never saw or wanted to,  has died. He did direct a cult movie I love, "Lifeforce", so I mourn his passing.

TCM is amazing. If you liked Lifeforce you should like TCM.

Somewhat hilariously, Space Vampires is actually the name of the book it was based on (by Colin Wilson)

Salem's Lot was what I think was his best work.

I know no one here will believe it but I liked a little more about life force than Mathilda May's stunning appearance.

Its a fun movie besides that. And I refuse to feel guilty for taking prurient joy in May's nudity. Three of the girls in our group watched Wolverine Origins 3 times largely for Hugh Jackmam's bare ass :D

Why would anyone feel guilty for enjoying nudity? :confused: It's one of my favorite things.

R.I.P.

I think Salem's Lot was my favorite of his. Thank you for giving us probably the scariest vampire ever depicted Kurt Barlow.

Um, have you seen "shadow of the vampire"? Seriously, I recommend it.

Shadow of the Vampire is a lot of fun. It is a shame Hooper didn't get to make more films. Seem Poltergeist killed a promising career. But TCM will make him immortal.

Oh, trust me. This is a reeeeaaaly old school vampire. Like nosferatu old school. He ain't no glittering pretty boy. The plot if the movie is incredibly original too.
