The Hidden II – review

May 20, 2009 by Steve Barman

I like the first 25 minutes of this movie (because it’s taken straight from The Hidden 1). The Hidden part one is an excellent sci-fi blood fest eith some social statement. The Hidden 2 is a lower budget no-action gab fest. Watch 1, forget part 2. Kyle Mclauchlin is in it!

S. Darko REVIEW

May 20, 2009 by Steve Barman

What happens when Fiona Apple and her shitty friend hang out in a bastard sequel? S. Darko! The dialogue is so random, I think they edited the dialog without bothering to check if it would still make sense.

This movie is like the youth of today, really hot and completely daft. Roberta Sparrow wrote a book on time travel so we could get the time wasted from this film back.

The poor man’s Joaquin Pheonix plays an alchoholic who kills people with a car, but no one presses charges, and the other driver is never mentioned. The second unit work is good. For some reason there’s a bunny, a zombie girl, and dead kid all replacing Frank the bunny.

Don’t ask me about the plot… I have no clue as to why the flury of random events was placed on a dvd and called a movie.

If you know the person who directed this movie, “burn the pervert’s house down”. I wish Samantha was at least able to say one line as clever as “what’s a fuckass?” Actually 90 minutes of Sparkle Motion rehersal footage would be prefered to this crap.

I bet if the nerdy guys takes his glasses off he’s a hunk… I was right! I am blogging this while I watch it. Kev says “we should walk around all day randomly and film it, add a few after effects and we’ll have a better movie.”

This movie cost 4 million dollars!? That money would have better been spent on a castle made out of marshmellows. I would rather shave my grandmas pussy than watch this movie again… ok, maybe not, but its a close call. Kevin would rather give Bill O’Reilly a blowjob while Bill takes a shit. I would rather get hatefucked in a victorian asylum while undergoing shocktreatment than watch this movie again.

Exciting week

As you have heard I have begun the initial bstages of putting together a tv show! Tv show is a loose term since it will be internet based. We are building the sets now. It will be a campy late night talkshow with detroit area bands interviewed, sketch comedy, politics, and more.

I am really excited. I had the idea a week ago and our set is half completed. We even have some of our “B” reel shot. My plan is to use my friends and associates for cohosts and guests. I would love to hear any suggestions you might have for the show.

Reality Bites

Vickie Miner: You don’t understand, every day, all day, it’s all that I think about, OK? Every time I sneeze, it’s like I’m four sneezes away from the hospice. And it’s like it’s not even happening to me, it’s like I’m watching it on some crappy show like Melrose Place or some shit right, and I’m the new character, I’m the HIV AIDS character and I live in the building and I teach everybody that ‘It’s OK to be near me, it’s OK to talk to me.’ And then I die. And there’s everybody at my funeral wearing halter tops or chokers or some shit like that.
Lelaina: Vickie stop, OK? Just stop. You’re freaking out. And you know what? You’re gonna have to deal with the results, whatever they are, we’re gonna have to deal with them just like we’ve dealt with everything else.
Vickie Miner: This isn’t like everything else.
Lelaina: I know that, alright? But it’s gonna be OK, you know? I know it’s gonna be OK. Melrose Place is a really good show.

She Plays My Heart Like A Theremin

December 19, 2008 by Steve Barman

My comic has arrived from the printers! It will be available at indyplanet AND from me. The cost is $5 (this includes shipping). You can order a copy by sending $5 via paypal to stevepareidolia@gmail.com (make sure to leave your shipping address).

A beautifully illustrated adventure in self-loathing and unrequited love, “She Plays My Heart Like A Theremin” is the debut comic from Barman & Eckert. A cerebral love story of romance, Karl Marx, and Albert Camus.

Part one of their “Theremin Trilogy”. The second part will be a feature film. This rare edition print is a two part story. One part linear story telling, another part artistic ego bludgeoning.

MST3K: Rifftrax vs. Cinematic Titanic

December 6, 2008 by Steve Barman

Mystery Science Theater 3000 was a great show and should have never been canceled. The show ran 11 years and grew a massive following of devoted fans.

For those of you living in the dark, for the past couple of years Rifftrax.com has been a service from Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy, Bill Corbett of MST3K. They produce audio commentary where they make fun of the movies. You can purchase these as mp3’s and watch them along with any movie they choose. Because they’re not breaking copyright they can riff any movie, The Dark Knight is their newest release.

Then, here is the news: Joel Hodgson, Trace Beaulieu, J. Elvis Weinstein, Mary Jo Pehl, and Frank Conniff have launched their own MST3K type business: Cinematic Titanic! Cinematic Titanic features the ORIGINAL Mystery Science Theater 3000 writers, with silhouettes in front of the screen, making fun of the movie. Giving the features a much more MST3K feeling. They also have live performances occasionally.

Will this be an epic MST3K bloodbath of the later writers versus the earlier writers!? Time Will tell. I’ve been listening to a lot of rifftrax (very funny), now I need to try cinematic titanic which seems very funny.

Here’s samples of both:
