@SkratchersOtherWorseChannel

5 ай бұрын

Both Fail Safe and strangelove are films about nuclear war lol, both have very similar stories too, to the point where Kubrick and Sidney Lumet had a bit of a legal scuffle over the rights to the novel Red Alert, which strangelove is adapted from. Never seen fail safe and don't mean intend on putting it down but I do greatly appreciate strangelove and implore you to watch it if that sort of thing interests you, was the film that had me fall back in love with well, film. One of the only pieces of media to humour me just as much as it terrified my core being. I definitely do have to get to fail safe, I just need to watch it in a mental state where I'm not comparing it to my literal favourite film of all time. I love Death Wish and Serpico though and only learned while typing this comment they're from the same director. (i have done more research, Sidney Lumet did not direct Death Wish, Dino De Laurentis produced it and worked on Serpico, idk how my brain mixed that up)

Must of missed those movies.

Thanks for the upload, I don't have this version of the series only the original and the one from the 90s hosted by Forrest Whittaker. SHATTERDAY is reminiscent of the David Lynch film LOST HIGHWAY, where Robert Blake plays a character that's part demon and maybe part vampire, at one point he walks in a party where the main character who's played by Bill Pullman in the first half of the movie and hands him a cell phone after telling him they'd met before, at Pullman's house, when told he's mistaken he replied that he was there right now and pulls out a cell phone and demands "Call me." Paxton humors him, and of course something with the same voice as Blake answers and says "I told you I was in your house... you invited me." It's a great film, and one of Lynch's best, so I won't say anything else because it definitely deserves a look. Probably doubtful that Lynch borrowed the idea from this redo, even though it's based on a story by the highly respected and influential sci-fi author Harlan Ellison.
