Brandon's Cult Movie Reviews: STAR KNIGHT 

When is the Next Godzilla Review?

​@@dragondaveltd1992 😅

You know you are somebody when a company wants to sponsor you

NOO YAWK

This opened up many memories of a friend of mine constantly trying to get me to watch this movie but I never did even though I promised each time I would lol

A left handed response to "V", perhaps?

Hopefully they explain where Harvey Keitel's accent came from.

@@TheBrandonTenold Aliens, it was illegal aliens.

@hiddentruth1982 I'm pretty sure they already have.

@hiddentruth1982 I'm pretty sure they already have.

Hahaha no doubt. And my roommate will believe every word as scientific truth.

He probably was busy being a villain in set

Hopefully that one doesn't include any awkward comedy bits.

Have you ever seen The Visitor (1979)? It's not quite that, but it's close. A really fun bad-yet-awesome Italian knockoff that's trying to simultaneously be Close Encounters, The Omen, and a Jodorowsky head trip. Plus it has a surprisingly strong cast and a *primo* Italio-disco soundtrack, if that's your jam.

Sounds like im in for a treasure hunt, thanks dude very little motivates me these days.

It's a book, not a movie, but The High Crusade by Poul Anderson is exactly that.

Dude, that's hilarious!

At least it wasn't "Close Encounters of The Fourth Crusade." Those who know...know. 😭

Wow... that's crazy. Then again, KK himself was a bit of a nut.

Maybe Price's agent knew Kinski was gonna be a problem & just wanted to fuck with the filmmakers?

@@TheBrandonTenold Who knows. Apparently, Price agreed to do it but had to pull out after having surgery.

@@TheBrandonTenold Wouldn't surprise me.

​@@TheBrandonTenoldThat was my theory. "That director is such a dick. God I hate him! I know what, I'll recommend he cast Klaus Kinski. That will teach him! Hahaha!"

Let us see his body of work... _The Heroes, Vera, un cuento cruel, Prisoner of Passion, Giovannino, Retrato de Familia, Il garofano rosso, Suspiria, Oedipus Orca, California, Sentados al borde de la mañana, con los pies colgando, Cosa de Locos, The Knight of the Dragon, En penumbra, The Miser, Lo más natural, Tacones Lejanos, La nuit sacrée, Mazeppa, La Reine Margot, Enciende mi pasión, French Twist, Amor digital, Libertarias, Oui,The Naked Eye, Lorca, El forastero, Guerra de Likes_ So yeah, he was active in film in the 70s and 80s. He was known for doing film stuff, not by you or me, but indeed he was known. I get it, his work is all over the place, not always on main roles with cameos here and there, but that was it.

That's like saying some guy nobody has ever heard of is better known as a nuclear physicist than as a hip-hop dancer. It doesn't matter what his profession is, nobody has ever heard of him.

He is still famous although he got shunned after his stances on COVID.

I guess that explains why he looks like Sting/Billy Idol/David Bowie all at the same time.

Based and Covid-pilled​@@TheBayzent

Seems he was also in Suspiria (1977)

Except pretty sure Klaus was 10x crazier.

@@DemonKingBadger and Sonny never had sex with his daughter.

​@@DemonKingBadgerHe was the Tyrese Gibson of his day 😊 😅 😂.

Don’t forget the sideways retelling of nosferastu with willem Defoe “shadow of the vampire.”

Yondah is the castle of my faddah

Star Games? Many, that is bad!

He's The Sovereign of The Guild of Calamitous Intent!

And if what he supposedly did to his daughters is true, then being an arrogant asshole on set is one of his more positive qualities in comparison.

Yes! I watched my fair share Z movies, and I find day for night can be creepy

Expedition to the Barrier Peaks. Classical.

That wasn't in my version. Maybe you saw the director's cut?

It’s definitely the horse and shield the green knight had earlier, so it makes sense that some version had a scene for that.

Hey, Brandon liked it! Btw, Brandon, on the weird tone of this, it kinda makes sense when you realise some behind the scenes stuff on the film: for starters this was directed by Fernando Colomo, a Spanish director more known for his part in he "comedia madrileña" genre (the closest thing to this for an Anglo I can think of is urban comedies on city slicker party intellectual types a la Woody Allen or the more yuppy and urban part of John Hughes's output, and although there is no full confirmation, what we DO known on the behind the scenes, Colomo started with Imanol Arias who is a legit REAL actor but also worked a little with Colomo in the "comedia", but during pre-production Colomo changed his mind on the alien and though he needed a more androgynous look, and enter our friend Bowie-Sting-Idol her (this is not a smoking gun, but it does make one think he might have tried this film as an exit from his safe place, but couldn't avoid falling into comedy mode, and then tried to fix that before finished product, but still couldn't shake his usual style off). So imagine Woody Allen trying to do "Match Point" or "Cassandra's Dream" but it coming out more like "Love and Death" or Hughes trying to turn his "Just Visiting" script into a not full-blow comedy.

The people in the middle ages actually believed that bad smells transport diseases, so yeah, people from the middle ages were not the ones not bathing and just pouring on perfumes, that era came later.

A lot of them didn't bathe very often because the popular misconception was that getting completely wet and not drying out quickly would get you sick (catch your death of cold) but that doesn't mean they didn't wash themselves when they needed to. Not as much as we do today, but they stayed clean enough.

I think I remember that show and it being kind of a neat idea, being a kind of TV fantasy role playing game show

Very much so, but I've never heard of that one defending a random bridge or whatever this one's doing. Plenty of other athurian knights do that though, so I wouldn't be surprised.

😆

They should print that on the DVD case. It won't get any more praise than that.

Yeah, this movie reminded me of that one. LOL.

Nightmare person all round.

@@andrewbyrne2173 exactly

​@@andrewbyrne2173I say the same thing about Tyrese Gibson 😊😅😂.

lol

haha my head went straight to Spiffing Brit when I heard that

yeah. He's um... problematic...

​@@carn9507Just like Tyrese Gibson 😊😅😂.

Actually, it's "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things."

@@michaelchoman1625 Good catch......turd.

I like the look and concept of the movie, the space suit was cool
