Elvira’s 40th Anniversary, Very Scary, Very Special Special

Wow, Elvira looks amazing.

I’ve never seen any of the original Elvira stuff — I guess it was a kinda local phenomenon?

Such banter! I love it.

But the rest of this movie is the 1988 movie Elvira: Mistress of the Dark? So confusing! I think I was that one back in the day? And I remember it being pretty amusing?

This is really sweet! And fun. I keep forgetting how much fun these genre movies from the 80s were. The 80s were like a rerun of the 50s, right? I mean, for movies. The 70s were all serious and gritty, and the 90s were all post modern, but there was a whole bunch of really sweet, entertaining movies in the 80s.

You can’t not like this movie.

That said, it does seem to spend a lot of time spinning its wheels.

Eep! And then we’re back to Elvira commenting the Elvira movie.

Heh heh. I assume that’s a reference to a real review.

I like this a lot, but there should be more jokes per time unit.

Most amiable.

Oh! There’s more movies? It’s a series of specials? I’ll be checking them out.

Elvira’s 40th Anniversary, Very Scary, Very Special Special. Jim Kunz. 2021.

Walk on Water

So… is this gonna be a romance between the Mossad (I mean “Mossad”) guy and … the grandson of a Nazi guy!? I’m starting to see a pattern in Fox’s movies.

I’m enjoying this movie, though. The actors are fun, and it’s really silly.

In a good way.

Hey, it’s that guy from The Bubble.

Nobody’s died yet! I forgot that somebody’s probably gonna die. Er… I think it’s… It has to be Axel. Yeah, that’d be tragic and ironic.

Ooops! I was wrong.

Oops spoilers.

Walk on Water. Eytan Fox. 2004.

Yossi

Yossi’s been eating all the pies.

So who’s dying dramatically in the third act in this one? Is it Yossi? Could be… I guessed wrong in Fox’ previous movie. I mean, about who died and who survived.

But I think not.

Least. Awkward. Date. Ever.

It’s fascinating — they’re making the movie about the character gaining weight and stuff — so did the guy bulk up for the part, or did the screenwriter think “hey, he’s fat now, let’s write a movie about that”.

Nobody died!

Oops spoilers.

Yossi. Eytan Fox. 2012.
