I've only ever seen the first one. Are the sequels actually worth watching, then? Edited October 31, 2018 by Chest Rockwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even Olivia Wilde could keep my eyes on the screen. It was just an interesting idea poorly realised and is Favreau's biggest mis-step.

Steve Justice Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I rewatched it last week. Forgot just how bad it was. Olivia Wilde was very pleasant to look at though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also no added complication of a bunch of sequels to ignore either. It's a great horror film but it's nuts that it's not quite one of his very best.  I'd love a good remake of the Fog and with the success of Halloween I'd be shocked if we don't get a few more horror remakes popping up. The remake of it they have already made is only good for one thing, and that's showing how easily you can made a terrible horror film. It just fails on every single level. I wouldn't mind someone trying to remake Prince of Darkness as well. The original is crazy and was probably Carpenters biggest flop, but it's constant nods to Quatermass and The Pit and general crazyness are great fun.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted October 31, 2018 Author Paid Members Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) @chokeout- Interestingly, Prince of Darkness was apparently one of Carpenter's biggest financial hits when calculated on a percentage basis of budget. Critically though it was panned but has received a lot of deserved reappraisal in recent years. It's an absolute masterpiece, I watched it again last night.

I was really heartened by Chef, not because of the subject matter but because it was a gentle, warm tale of a guy trying to do right by his son and his sanity. Really enjoyed it. I can understand not liking it but worst film of all time? Does it help that I hate Favreau in everything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was great too. I watched it on a flight to Miami and got a cuban sandwich on the way to the apartment when we landed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted October 31, 2018 Moderators Share Posted October 31, 2018 I'd love to try one of those sandwiches for real. I have made them a couple times at home but I'm not sure what the proper Cuban bread is supposed to be like. (I used the Babish recipe for the pork).
