JCC The JCC Watches Movies! (this Friday night... STREET FIGHTER: THE MOVIE!)

So the movie we are going to be presenting today is a classic in bad movie history: the hilarious First Blood knockoff DEADLY PREY!



Colonel Hogan is a ruthless former military officer who trains a large group of former U.S. Servicemen as mercenaries by having them hunt down and kill people they abduct off the streets of Los Angeles. Hogan's greedy financier Michaelson threatens Hogan to speed up the men's training or he will pull the plug on Hogan's training camp. However, Hogan and his men meet their match when their latest kidnap victim turns out to be a tough gung-ho marine named Mike Danton who despite being unarmed and hunted, he manages to decimate Hogan's men in detail.

First showing: 10pm east! Be there!

 

I'll be there in 20 minutes

 

I am always out doing stupid grown-up errands when these happen.

 

We're now queuing up "Star Slammer: The Escape"

You are the BEST for hosting a double-feature. No longer sad.

 

Hopefully I can get it to load, my render times are insane right now and need something to watch.

 

How very dare you.

 

What the blue **** was any of that.

 

I am still horrified.

 

Yeah, Mr ZAP joining in will do that to the best of us.

 

So, great movie or greatest movie?

 

Thank you again for doing a double-feature. The movie was horrific but the company amazing, as always.

 

My B-grade Sci Fi fix satiated for a good length of time, that's what that was.

 

Rot Toms may need more reviews...

Damn, now I feel bad I missed the second movie

 

So, following Ramza 's suggestion, I cleared up the trailer list. Thankfully, the latest sources seem to hold up better and most movies are still online. Woooo. I added a few new trailers to the roulette, and you are more than welcome to see them!

Also, I'm going to try again this whole "announce the movie in advance so that people can decide when to watch it" thing, because while looking for trailer I found something that I'm sure we are all going to love...

MAZES AND MONSTERS!!!!



Bound together by a desire to play "Mazes and Monsters," Robbie and his four college classmates decide to move the board game into the local legendary cavern. Robbie starts having visions for real, and the line between reality and fantasy fuse into a harrowing adventure.

Tom Hanks! Youths driven mad by roleplaying games! Paranoia! A Reefer Madness for D&D! The closes we'll get to a Dark Dungeons movie! Tom Hanks! Wait... Tom Hanks!?

Be there or be square!

 

Now admittedly it's a parody, but actually:

 

Looks like JCC Watches Movies is finally going to have some competition: the Return of Mystery Science Theater 3000, coming to Netflix in April.

I've watched a few of these. I really don't get the appeal. Must be an american thing.

 

Holy smokes! I might have to tune in for this gem.

 

Would it be possible to start the movie a little earlier if we watch it tonight? (I have to work night shift on Fridays, but even if we could start at 9pm I'd be able to watch a good chunk of the first movie). If not that's okay.

 

You got it. Film will start at 9pm Mountain time.
