An Alien comes to earth to hunt man for sport. A hidden gem that literally was the blueprint for 1987’s Predator. This brings me to 1980’s Without Warning.
#Crazy sexy bartender movie#
Okay, the night is getting later and my movie memory is still strong as I write but my google search for the right images is weak. Have him say some clever shit to the camera, have the camera pan left or right, and show an open mic going on in the bar with a guy performing “The Ballad Of Harry Warden” to a mellow crowd drinking their Moosehead Beer. Anyways, the only moment that would have made it even greater for me would have been to give the bartender the very last scene in the film. It is the perfect early 80s knockoff slasher flick, hell, even the remake was decent. Now as a proud canadian I love this freaking movie. Also I always say during this scene if you never were sure it could be east coast Canada the amount of Moosehead beer in this bar proves it.Īnyways, as we all know none of these people listen to the old bartender and the slaughter begins shortly after. Honestly, these were and still are the best tropes from the 80s horror movie genre. Listen To This Man!Īs the local young ones are getting ready to go against the law and have their first Valentine’s Party in years in town they talk about their plans outloud in the local pub where our amazing grizzly bartender listens in and stops them dead in their talk to give the tale…the tale of the ballad of Harry Warden. And one of my all time favourites was the bartender in the 1981 canadian classic MY BLOODY VALENTINE. Now, with knock off slasher flicks coming out shortly after fast and furious not only were they ripping off the killer’s character but the Crazy Ralph character. None of those stupid young sexy kids would listen to him so they were doomed.
#Crazy sexy bartender series#
One of my favourite things about the original Friday The 13th series in the first two films was the master of doom and gloom, Crazy Ralph. Needless to say the scene in this canadian pub still traumatizes grown up me…ouch! Jeff “BrundleFly” Goldblum is on the hunt for a new mate after Geena Davis told him to piss off with his new “superpowers’ and to impress and win over a young lady he challenges her boyfriend to a friendly match of “break my arm and make sure the bone pops out” arm wrestling. Well, this movie did just that because of this moment. Well back when I was a kid and figured my 11 year eyes would rent a BETA copy of a movie called THE FLY I never thought from that day on the image of friends arm wrestling would make me run for the hills. Some so quick we forget that was in a bar. Now a lot of genre films have quick moments in a bar setting. This movie is a blast and the Titty Twister Bar is a movie nerd moment we will never forget. And finally it’s all of them teaming up to fuck shit up when the vampire insanity happens. It’s Fred “The Hammer” Williamson telling us the horrors of Vietnam.
It’s FX legend Tom Savini as “Sex Machine’. It’s a crazy bar with Salma Hayek as an exotic dancer with a big fucking snake letting QT live out his foot fetish moves by having him suck on her toes. I mean honestly it was not one scene that made me think of this beauty of a film but the overall effect of genre goodness. Watching this film in theaters back then I was thinking I just wanna hang there with my buds minus the human killing vamps. It was all of them in the amazing setting known as the TITTY TWISTER! How this bar is still not a real thing is beyond me. Now he killed it as bad ass gangster Seth Gecko but in the end the star of this flick was not QT, Clooney, or even the vampires. More importantly this flick gave George Clooney the moment to shake off his good guy image that was Doug Ross from ER. Sure we all know that Tarantino wrote the damn thing but the story was actualy born from Robert Kurtzman (part of KNB FX). Just a list of rememeber this shit? And to start gonna think about 1996’s From Dusk Till Dawn. Bar life in cinema has been going on since the camera was invented so I’m totally focusing on my strange favourite moments from genre films, big or small, that I grew up on. Seems like a great idea after a night working at the…bar. So I figured why not think about some random bar scenes from flicks and talk about them. Love the videostore and maybe one day after 14 years it will be enough to keep me alive on it’s own but until then the beautiful scent of booze, depression, shots, desperation and regrets in life, and overall good vibes of a dim lit alcohol fueled enviroment will always be around me. Now as some of you may or may not know to keep the videostore going I work a few nights a week at bars in the city to keep the dream alive.
