Jamie's Indie Movie of the Week!


Hello and welcome to Jamie’s indie movie of the week. This week’s movie is one that I've been trying to hold onto for as long as I could. I just couldn't wait another moment though and had to share it. This one is not only one of the best indie movies I have ever seen but it’s also a lot of fun. So let’s get right to it. Today’s movie is an instant classic called John Dies at the End. Huh? WTF! What kind of movie gives away the ending like that. How about one made by the famous director Don Coscarelli, Jr. He’s the man who directed such classics as: The Phantasm series, Beastmaster and Bubba Ho-Tep. You remember how badass Bubba Ho-Tep was right? If not then I’ll have to include that one very soon in my Indie Movie of the weak feature. And I know you must remember those awesome 80′s flicks, especially the Phantasm series. You can’t call yourself a true horror fan unless you’ve seen them. They’re the one’s with that creepy tall guy, those evil little goblins and those sweet silver sentient sphere’s that bust through doorway’s and have all kinds of wicked instruments inside of them. They have blades and smack into people and then drill into their bodies.  They were totally sweet and they went something like this:

Pretty sweet right? Well John Dies at the end is from the same director. It started out as a comic horror novel webserial before being turned into a novel. The Director bought the rights to the film adaptation and I’m hoping he makes the second movie since there were two books. The second one is titled This Book is Full of Spiders. I completely dig the titles to these especially John Dies at the End. The movie is pure genius and is about Dave and his friend John. Dave goes to a party to help John’s band and they meet this Jamaican dude who is selling this weird new drug called “soy sauce” and after taking it John begins to see all kinds of things. The rest is pure cinematic brilliance. Is John and later Dave having a bad trip or is there so much more going on? This is a hard one because I want to tell you every single little detail on why this movie is so awesome but I can’t because this really is one that you have to experience for yourselves.

 

The movie has a 6.5 star rating at Imdb.com and can be found here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1783732/

 

But forget ratings. This movie deserves 100 stars out of 10. That’s right, 90 more stars should be invented just for this movie. 25 of them would be for the name alone :) Ahh, I had such a good time watching this movie. I really don’t even know what to compare it to because it’s so odd, so out there and so freaking ingenious. John Dies at the End is in my top five favorite movies of all time and pretty much everyone I have forced to watch this have come away with a new favorite movie :) The acting is good, the special effects are awesomely creative. If you get the DVD, it has features on the making of the movie as well as the special effects which is a must watch. They do everything the old fashion way with this one and it gives it a special sort of magic. The plot, well the plot is just something else. You really just have to see this to believe it and as far ruining the end. Hey, it’s not my fault John Dies at the End. :)

Jamie's Indie/Foreign Movie of the week.

 

Today's movie is a gem called Ink. I tend to gravitate towards odd or different kinds of movies and on the few occasions that I do watch a movie I always try to hunt down an indie or foreign one. I appreciate a good Hollywood flick every so often but for the most part I love smaller projects. Movies where directors have to focus more on storytelling than nonstop cgi battle sequences. Movies that have to use special effects in a clever manner because of budget restraints and movies whose creators put their heart and souls into the project and I don't think there's a movie that fits all of these descriptions more than Ink. This movie has plenty of heart and soul.

 

The movie has a 7.0 rating on IMDb and a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Here's the link to it at IMDb

 

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1071804/

As the light fades and the city goes to sleep, two forces emerge. They are invisible except for the power they exert over us in our sleep, battling for our souls through dreams.

I've chosen the shorter blurb to describe the movie because I think IMDb gives a little too much away. The director is in no hurry to tell his tale and the pacing is absolutely perfect. As the story progresses more and more layers are added to it's already rich storyline giving this one so much more depth than your average Hollywood flick. Once again I wish Hollywood would take some notes because this is how you make a movie.

 

For it's low budget the acting is superb and the visual effects are truly a sight to see. There are no cheap gimmicks here, and Ink is just as much a visual experience as it is an emotional one. The action scenes are truly amazing and shot in such a way that makes them not only fun but also very unique. And once again as much as I like the Trailer it just fails to do it proper justice. It's like having someone drive home a beat up old car but when you look under the hood it contains a jet engine. There's just so much more going on underneath the hood or cover.

 

Ink is sort of a cerebral fantasy with elements of fantasy, horror, and action and you really just can't put this film into any category or genre. It has multiple story line's running simultaneously between the real world and the realm of dreams and the story line's overlap each other until they finally merge head on during the brilliantly epic conclusion.

 

Just take my word for it and watch this film. It is so good. It made a lasting impression upon me and I think that those who are parents will be moved even more by this film than I was. I just don't know how else to describe it so I'll just throw out some words that come to mind. Awe-inspiring, beautiful, brilliant, stunning, awesome, visual, emotional, dark, light, fantasy, etc etc.

 

I'm going to do this one every Saturday and I doubt I'll ever run out of good Indie or Foreign movies :D 

 

It used to be on Netflix but I don't see it there at the moment. But it's worth buying or renting. Find it wherever you can and watch this movie. This is another one that I will watch time and time again :)
