Plan B Forum

I just signed up to Netflix and I must say I'm really enjoying the free streaming feature. i t allows me to watch the plethora of movies that aren't worth renting but are enjoyable to watch all the same. you know Bad Movies. Guilty Pleasures. For instance Right now I'm watching Fright Night Not a good movie by any standard. B-movie horror at it's best or worst (depending on your point of view) Not a movie you'd rent or even wait for for that matter not even with the realization that Amanda Bearse was cast as the primary love interest. But here I am making all the "barking up the wrong tree" jokes I can think of and having a ball as I do it.

What can I say it's nice to be able to watch the unrentables.

What sort of prices do they charge there?

And is it possible to burn netlflix derived movies?

1) It's free with their monthly service. (I don't know if it's offered in AUS)
2) it may be but you "sign" an agreement stating you won't.

I'll have to look into this lark, as TV down here is rather naff at best.

If I can get a stream of Brit coms / Brit drama it may be worth it.

Nearest we have is "Quickflix", not bad deals, but not really worth our while at the mo.

yeah, I don't think I've signed up for that.

having looked at Netflix (esp if I could burn copies) it seems like a very good deal

It is a blockbuster busting of a deal.

It is a Hollywood Video busting of a deal along with a "Movie Madness*" busting of a deal.

*The best video rental store in the world. Now gone.

I enjoyed the luxury of instant access to a local physical rental place, but Netflix won my heart because I was willing to trade impetuosity for a greater inventory of rentals, especially in terms of documentary film. Generally you get films you order within a day or two now anyway, so it's close to instant - and yes, the streaming feature was the icing on the cake.

Netflix. Yum!

Well thanks to being able to open My X-mas gift early the Wife and I Just watched American Werewolf In London and the Camp Classic....

...drumroll....

The Toxic Avenger!

What's your view on "Suspiria" C-P?

Most either love it or hate it.

I love it, I have the 25 th anniversary triple pack DVD.

I haven't really watched it. Saw it once a long time ago didn't get it. Haven't revisited it

I'd offer to send you a copy, but you've got some weird assed system over there.

I'm not CP, however I did like the sound track, Goblin was ahead of their time.

The movie was hohum, a little nudity would have gone a long way (I was much younger then).

BTW I'm a Flixer too...

I've got the trilogy, I'm a big fan of Argento's work.

The Suspiria box set comes with a CD of the Goblin soundtrack, happy to send you a copy if you want it Keld.

Goblin are still going by the way, Argento sometimes guests with them

Thanks for the offer but I could probably buy it for the postage.

Another soundtrack group I like is Tangerine Dream...
