Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
I don't think so - they were teens rather than kids and the young man who plays Rocky, Frankie Burke, is the spit of Cagney:

I like this one. Did you watch the theatrical cut or the recently restored directors cut ?The Excorcist III Legion. One of only 2 films directed by Blatty, both heavily religious but this with a wonderful dark humour missing from the first film.
Didn't know there was a director's cut, Reno. Will have to check it out.I like this one. Did you watch the theatrical cut or the recently restored directors cut ?
It just got released on BD/DVD in the US. Originally the film was a lot closer to Blatty's novel Legion, till the studio decided to do major reshoots to add the whole exorcism subplot which always felt a bit tacked on. I'm curious to see it, though people who have seen the director's cut say the end is now a little anti-climactic. I long thought this film is rather underrated with one of the scariest sequences of any horror film ever.Didn't know there was a director's cut, Reno. Will have to check it out.

Les Visiteurs. French time travel comedy starting Jean Reno. Not a great film but enjoyable enough.
Train to Busan, Korean action horror film which could have been called Zombies on a Train and it's excellent, doing just about everything with zombies on a train which can be done. I liked its old school disaster movie approach to the dwindling group of survivors it follows as a train (and the world outside) get taken over by the zombie apocalypse.
The Greasy Strangler. Words fail me when it comes to this one. People will either love or hate the film, I loved it. It's disgusting and extremely weird but the expression of a fully worked out vision. The closest it comes to reminding me of something is John Waters 70s films via an adults only Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, it's the gross out comedy to end them all. OMG the "disco outfit" !
Trailer NSFW:
I didn't know Train to Busan was a Korean horror as the posters made it look like a 'serious' movie.
The Greasy Strangler was god damn awful.
First 15mins was funny (potato/ chip joke in particular) but the humour was on repeat too many times.
John Water films had a certain charm to the characters. These guys were just too grotesque and unlikable. No redemption or light...way too 2D.
ThisThe Brothers Grimsby. Sasha Baron Conen's latest. Extremely rude, totally over the top and very, very funny. The best elephant gang-bang you'll ever see.
I give it a 6
