I wasn't crazy about Devils Rejects either, it just seemed to fail at whatever it was attempting. It wasn't really creepy, or scary, or blackly comical, and it really wasn't that gory.

What we haven't seen are: Series 7, Femme Fatale, Alone in the Dark, & Idiocracy. I don't feel that I'm missing much there, though. I don’t know where you’ve been AT, but we’ve seen Bad Santa.

I might put Devils Rejects a little higher on the list - it makes ya feel slimy watching it, but it remains the finest use on film of "Free Bird". Oddly, when I watched Memento, I kept thinking I had seen it before ... creepy. I have no valid reasons for enjoying Femme Fatale, Harold and Kumar, or Bad Santa but I liked them all. Bad Santa may be Billy Bob's best performance ever. And while the Katakuris movie was weirdly entertaining, the one movie they should have included instead is Gozu. It's like an acid trip in a Kyoto alleyway with David Lynch and Luis Bunuel. Plus, instead of Huckabees, I would have mentioned Being John Malkovich. I heart midnight movies.
