"Is this some kind of a gag?"
" this is a gag isn't it"
" what kind of a gag is this?"
" this is just plain weird!"
"Kentucky wind-age"
Then I better run home and check if there is a roast in the oven or something else entirely.
Yes! His suit, shoes, standard yellow 80's Porsche.
All perfect for a mid level soldier trying to be hip. His bedside manner is extremely horrible as well! Great character all around!!
Good list. I believe the three top are...
Forbes, Harrington, and Gart. They were ripped from our world with no explanation. And they seemed like they suffered alot
For a cocktail party, pigs in a blanket and some heavy drinks, then I'm def calling Bob and Millie.
For a BBQ and a good intellectual conversation, then Don and Pat. They seem less selfish and would be there for you. They seem like good peeps.
Hell yeah they do
Just as beautiful is the mid intermission from Walking Distance...""A man can think a lot of thoughts and walk a lot of pavements between afternoon and night. And to a man like Martin Sloan, 'till memory has suddenly become reality, a resolve can come just as clearly and inexorably as stars in the summer night. Martin Sloane is now back in time. And his resolve is to put in a claim to the past.".
For me it will always be..."Martin Sloan, age thirty-six, vice-president in charge of media. Successful in most things but not in the one effort that all men try at some time in their lives—trying to go home again. And also like all men perhaps there'll be an occasion, maybe a summer night sometime, when he'll look up from what he's doing and listen to the distant music of a calliope, and hear the voices and the laughter of the people and the places of his past. And perhaps across his mind there'll flit a little errant wish, that a man might not have to become old, never outgrow the parks and the merry-go-rounds of his youth. And he'll smile then too because he'll know it is just an errant wish, some wisp of memory not too important really, some laughing ghosts that cross a man's mind, that are a part of the Twilight Zone.".
"Wait a minute.. before you say one word before you say anything gimme a drink..."
LOL. I'm convinced Gurney went to the same party Bob and Millie Frazier were at from "Stop over..".
"Never never never again...." while pulling partystring from top pocket.
Yes I agree. A very underated film to say the least!
Everyone contributes perfectly. Sean's slow decent into this strange town is done very very well.
Great choices guys! That "Obsolete Man" intro is timeless
Yes. His threats were quite awful too! Twilight Zone had a great way of having evil on earth and having you fear someone without showing you anything. Jeff, Little Evil Anthony, Willie, PIP etc... all characters that were as evil as it gets and yet without all the fire and brimstone. That's why these can't be remade. To subtle for today's audience. There would be too many jump scares.
It's interesting. I always felt that Jeff did come back but with a little darker soul. It's almost as if we never found out his true purpose. He always seemed like he had something else in mind and didn't have the smaller thinking at everyone else did. I would rate him more closer to evil than good but with a mind your own business attitude to him.
Oliver Reed played "scared" very very well. He showed some great emotion and fear. Fantastic film
Yes. You nailed it. Having to go upstairs to open a door. Whether it be a closet or anything. I would put off doing it.
Yes that war scene was epic!! That body flying through the air silhouetted by that huge explosion! Awesome. Yes the character development in this was a little more invested. I also like the fact that they brought in the idea of being a Vet in society at that time and dealing with street justice in the manner that he did.
Great film
I agree. The war scene in the beginning alone makes it a great film. I am a fan of the Death Wish films but this film had a great revenge plot as well. His motivation was believable and warranted.
"....Tell the Easter bunny I want my gun back..."
Agreed. Gimme some people who look convincing. The thin long legged hotty kickin ass looks good in comics and on paper but for once I'd like to see a man and woman cast who have mass/weight/strength.
"Can you summon demons wizard...?"
