the wanderers, about new york street gangs in the early 60's. I love the movie, but I don't know anyone outside of my family that's seen it. to connect it with purple hearts, I think cheryl ladd's costar in that was ken wahl, who had his first movie role in the wanderers.

emperor of the north was a good one.

I saw Emperor of the North at the theaters when I was all of 5 years old with my Granddad, my Dad, and my youngest brother (who was 11 at the time) while the women went to see something else (can't remember what it was for the life of me). Nothing better for a 5 year old than watching a movie set in the depression era centering around two men constantly beating the hell out of each other over one fo them trying to hobo rides on trains and the other preventing it.

Real Genius

Absolutely priceless movie full of many great quotes.

"This? This is ice. This is what happens to water when it gets too cold. This? This is Kent. This is what happens to people when they get too sexually frustrated."

"Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun-god robes on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?"
"No."
Why am I the only one who has that dream?"

"Think before you ask these questions, Mitch. Twenty points higher than me? Thinks a big guy like that can wear his clothes?"

Djjazzytim,

I've seen Orgazmo, Rivers Edge with Keanu Reeves was really good. "After Hours" was really good as well.

When I read this one that you posted, its sounds interesting. Really freakish. I'd like to see it.

Repo Man - "...It's 4 A.M., do you know where your car is?" Frustrated punk rocker Otto quits his supermarket job after slugging a co-worker, and is later dumped by his girlfriend at a party. Wandering the streets in frustration, he is recruited in the repossession of a car by a repo agent. During his training, he is introduced into the mercenary and paranoid world of the drivers, befriended by a UFO conspiracy theorist, confronted by rival repo agents, discovers some of his one-time friends have turned to a life of crime, is lectured to about cosmic unconsciousness by the repo agency grounds worker, and finds himself entangled in a web of intrigue concerning a huge repossession bounty on a 1964 Chevy Malibu driven by a lunatic government scientist, with Top Secret cargo in the trunk.
Directed and written by Alex Cox, features Emilio Estevez, Harry Dean Stanton, and several lesser-known actors who aslo starred in Straight to Hell.

Hope you enjoy it as much as I have - it has quite the great punk rock soundtrack as well (early 80's when punk was new, nothing like today's "music").
