@davechensky I'm sure at this point your "What if you can enjoy your own funeral" remark has opened up #slashtag requests to watch Dick Johnson Is Dead
@jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra Have you guys started to watch Ratched on Netflix? I was blown away by the pilot. While the story and cast are pretty good, I’d have to say I’m stunned at how great the cinematography, locations, etc. are. #slashtag
#slashtag recommendation for the @slashfilmcast guys: #LostBullet on Netflix might be my top action film of 2020 & no one is really talking about it. A low key French action film with dashes of FAST/FURIOUS & OG MAD MAX from a first time director & starring a skilled stuntman.
#slashtag recommendation. A fantastic 2020 documentary called Jasper Mall. Follows employees and customers around a once thriving mall in Alabama. It’s funny, sad at times and has a great nostalgia factor to it. Truly worth a watch.
#slashtag recommendation: a strange, memorable, complex and disturbing gem of a film: DREAMCHILD from 1985. Written by the great Dennis Potter, w/ superb performances by Ian Holm (as Lewis Carroll) and Coral Browne (as the real Alice for whom the books were written). 1/
#slashtag (cont.) I saw the film at the Public Theatre's cinema in 1985 and took friends back to see it, it was so strange, resonant, and affecting. I think you guys will enjoy digging into it. Avail on Amazon Prime (a muddy print, unfortunately.) Enjoy! 3/3

#slashtag (cont.) DREAMCHILD plays with shifts in time, memory, and reality versus fiction in ingenious ways. Characters from the Alice In Wonderland books were created by Jim Henson's Creature Shop, to creepy, funny effect. 2/
@slashfilmcast Shudder also has "The Orphanage" quality top-shelf, best-of-the-best quality horror! Check out Guatemala’s La Llorona (this isn’t last year’s The Curse of La Llorona) and Mexico’s Tigers are Not Afraid #slashtag
The Unit was one of my never-miss tv series when it was on. Not sure I have ever heard anyone talk about it in reviews. It was about U.S. Army special operations unit commonly known as Delta Force and their family lives.

@slashfilmcast I'd like to recommend #Alive, a South Korean zombie film which I watched and, uhm... I thought it was... very, very good, actually... #slashtag
@slashfilmcast I would like to recommend Studio Trigger's debut film "Promare" it's an animated action adventure film the likes you have never seen before #slashtag

@slashfilmcast Check out Roof Culture Asia - it’s a parkour documentary with a sense of adventure and amazing feats of athleticism that will make your stomach drop. #slashtagyoutu.be/IKl2Yj3qqQs
#slashtag@Devindra@davechensky@jeffcannata yall im just throwing it out there that Cinema Paradiso is so heartwarming and emotional, one of the greatest films ive ever seen, and newly relevant to the times. Also Dave, the directors cut is 3+ hours 😜
The fans of the /Filmcast podcast are the clear winners of the summer movie wager, as y’all didn’t compete. 😜 😂
So, as punishment, you should watch the 1982 Barry Bostwick action thriller “Megaforce” and review it on the next podcast. #slashtag
@Devindra@davechensky@jeffcannata#slashtag You have to check out Raised by Wolves on HBO Max. This is one of the best Sci-fi TV shows ever made. It flew under my radar but I watched an episode and it blew me away. If you’ve ever liked Ridley Scott you need to check this out.
I just watched 'Imitation of Life' (1959) and I'm honestly shocked that this isn't a more well-known classic. I think it's better than 'Sunset Boulevard' and 'Casablanca' and it deals with still-relevant issues in ways more progressive than many modern movies! #slashtagpic.twitter.com/ZmA8iVfomf
I am on a quest to watch happy things and Zoeys Extraordinary Playlist (on Hulu/Peacock) is delightful. It's breezy, colorful and charming and will leave you with a smile on your face. Watch it with your significant other. #slashtag
I used to think we were headed for civil war after Nov. I’m starting to suspect that American apathy will prevail as it always seems to. Sure there will be marching. Sure there will be twitter memes. But ultimately, the dude won’t leave office and it will somehow be normalized.
@jeffcannata Google Gaddafi and steel pipe. If Trump loses and doesn't leave he will be suffer same fate.
In less gory news. Just submitted my first #slashtag 🤡
"Alone" is a surprisingly well directed, effective horror film with a kick ass female lead which gave me second thoughts about kidnapping strangers. #slashtagimdb.com/title/tt771117…
Anti police shit has to stop. I am sitting in the ER w/the most important person in my life, also a LEO, who was on duty & hit in the face by a fucker that threw a bottle out of their car, as they yelled anti police crap. Should I be happy it was only a bottle?
@ElliotIsTopDog I’m so sorry. I am married to a cop and have 3 sons on the job. Me, I want to give back to the rioter community. Fun stuff to come. #slashtag 🤞🏻
@jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra I feel like you've maybe mentioned it in the past because I know you all liked Chef, but Series 4 of The Chef Show just went up on Netflix and it's so chill. Just some excellent, vibey food porn. #slashtag
Glory Daze with Ben Affleck, streaming on CBS all access, is 5 stars for me. Mostly from nostalgia and the punk rock soundtrack. Cameos from Matthew McConaughey and Matt Damon. Has anyone else seen this college comedy?
#slashtag
@jeffcannata@davechensky@Devindra#slashtag Strongly recommend Benh Zeitlin's WENDY as my favorite film of 2020 so far; more emotionally-resonant fantasy and stunning landscapes from director of BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD; rent on YouTube/Apple/Amazon
#slashtag@davechensky@jeffcannata@Devindra Don't watch #Alive for the next episode. It was OK but if you want a horror comedy watch One Cut of the Dead. It's seriously masterpiece about the pleasures (and horrors) of filmmaking. And don't make the mistake of turning it off... pic.twitter.com/4qb8Dzdo4O
@slashfilmcast please watch Gook - amazing movie very timely for the present day and I think Dave would appreciate it for the awesome actors and acting #slashtag
