Steel Dawn

So, yeah, 80s post-apocalyptic.

You got it. Patrick Swayze with his wife Lisa Niemi, and Anthony Zerbe, Brion James, and John Fujioka. How could you go wrong?

Only seen that one a couple of times. I might need to watch it again if I can find it streaming anywhere.

Speaking of, I tried to find this one on a streaming service but none of them had it available. I could rent it from Amazon Prime but the price between renting it and buying the Blu-Ray was only a dollar so that just means one more Blu-Ray to add to my collection.

Maybe? But it's not coming together yet.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:08 pm

Maybe another animated GIF will help.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:10 pm

So much for that. I'd like to think I'd remember someone being eaten by/sucked into a toilet.

So apparently I have not seen it.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:12 pm

It could have been worse. Just ask this guy....

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:13 pm

Ewwwww...

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:44 pm

Maybe a nice boat ride will settle your stomach.

I'm starting to think I won't be able to find this movie on Disney+.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:54 pm

Seems unlikely.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 5:38 pm

This one really ought to be the giveaway shot. If not, I'll try one more after this.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 6:44 pm

The big baddie...

That's pretty much all I've got. If none of the previous images gave you the movie, then you probably haven't seen it which is a shame as it's a really fun monster movie. The special effects don't hold up quite so well as the CGI was very much in its infancy at the time but I would say give this one a chance.

Spoiler:

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 6:44 pm

Actually, the shot before that one looked vaguely familiar. So maybe I saw part of it? Which doesn't help with a title. Since if I did see any of it, it was likely due to flipping around. So I probably wouldn't have caught the name anyway.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 6:45 pm

Did they stumble on a boat that was floating un-manned? Or am I thinking of the one with whatshername from E.R.?

Edit: Looks like I may be remembering the story. A bit. Though I still don't remember anyone being eaten by a toilet.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Thu Aug 27, 2020 6:55 pm

I do recommend it but, as mentioned before, it's not available on any of the streaming services (unless you want to rent it on Amazon for $2.99) but there is a very low resolution (360p) version of the entire movie on YouTube.

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Fri Aug 28, 2020 10:45 pm

Well, since nobody got the last one, let me try again.

Jaymann · Post by **Jaymann** » Fri Aug 28, 2020 11:13 pm

Army of Darkness?

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Fri Aug 28, 2020 11:16 pm

Very-ungroovy.

No.

If that's Walter Koenig and he's not in a Star Fleet or Psi Corps uniform but he is in space, then I'd guess this is Moontrap?

Brian · Post by **Brian** » Sat Aug 29, 2020 5:45 pm

You are correct.

Moontrap starring Walter Koenig and Bruce Campbell.
Or as I like to call it, Chekov and The Chin.

No guess yet but based on that laptop I'd say we are in the mid 90's.

A Room with a View?

McNutt · Post by **McNutt** » Mon Aug 31, 2020 11:09 am

I know it's from 12 Angry Men, so I'll continue with a softball.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Mon Aug 31, 2020 11:18 am

Red Dragon? (Or maybe the earlier Manhunter? Though since you said a "softball", I'd assume the more recent one.)

McNutt · Post by **McNutt** » Mon Aug 31, 2020 11:23 am

It's Manhunter.

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Mon Aug 31, 2020 11:24 am

Liked just about everything in that movie better than the re-do. Music was fantastic.
