Zombie Christ
Without a doubt worst film I've ever attempted to watch even by low budget standard.
Re: Most Recent Movie You've Seen
The X-Files: Fight The Future is always a bit of a bittersweet moment for the series.
It was a good movie... but it was the jump the shark moment for the series. The show was NEVER... EVER... as good as it was post-movie, than it was pre-show.
Was it awful? No, but it almost came across as a totally different show.
In hind-sight they should've been very artistic and used the theatrical film, which was a decent hit, to be a big epic cinematic series finale, and just end the series there.
Something like Fight The Future, meets "The Truth".

1 Father/2 Sons was 11 episodes after that in Season 6. That's where the original conspiracy arc ends and all the all bad guys from the movie and earlier seasons expect CSM get killed off.
I loved that series, but completely insane the end doesn't happen in the movie. There were various good episodes scatered throughtout the remaining seasons till it got cancelled, but the legacy was certainly damaged.

Warrior.
Wasn't expecting much,..........I was wrong.
Characters are superb, Nick Nolte is fantastic and the story is very well written, also it must be mentioned that the fight scenes are done incredibly well.
One of the best movies this year, I know that ain't saying much, but this is really worth seeing.

Wow dude, I totally forgot about that. You're absolutely right. That mid-Season 6 2-parter, was an epic moment for the series. Back when it originally aired, I remembered thinking "this should've been the movie and series finale".
Little did I know the show was gonna continue a decline phase.
I never understood the shit Doggett & Reyes got later on. I'd much rather have them, and the show be dark like it was originally, than David Ducovney trying to turn it into a damn sketch show every damn week.
Those comedy episodes wanted to make me puke.
Re: Most Recent Movie You've Seen
Anybody watch The Thing yet? Wanted to see it in theater but shit happened & it went on the backburner. Downloaded it on pirate & will either watch this tonight or start catching up on American Horror Story. Last EP I watched was the fourth.
Re: Most Recent Movie You've Seen
I saw "Due Date" the other night. It was pretty funny, but it was pretty darn similar to "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles" from the 80's, and that was better.
Also saw "Wrong Turn" starring Eliza Dushku and Sloan from "Entourage". They are both hot and were nice to look at. The movie was alright as far as horror/thriller's go, but nothing I'd recommend.
Re: Most Recent Movie You've Seen
My best friend is like the biggest Eliza Dushku fan. Thinks she's the hottest thing alive. Talks about her like he personally knows her (probably follows her on Twitter or something).
I recently watched...
"The Lincoln Lawyer"
It was actually surprisingly good. It's gotta be Matthew McCoughnahey's best film and best performance in YEARS, and Ryan Phillipe was surprisingly evil.
Supporting cast is solid too... Marisa Tomei, William H. Macy, Josh Lucas, Frances Fisher, Bryan Cranston...
