Stonekeeper's Autumn Game: I recommend THIS Mystery Movie #154: (Blood in blood out 1993)


Tonight, I decided to go with what I consider one of the best movies ever made.

Ta da daaam!

So are you game to play with guys? Here is an investigation game that can be time consuming but it's lots of fun. Basically, I have a movie in mind and you have to guess which one it is. For each movie you guys are going to guess, I will give a hint that CONNECTS your guess with the movie I have in mind.

Example of connections: Actor, length, genre, aspect ratio, language, country, year, director, writer in common, rating, number of votes, nominations. It can even be something like: both movies involve a love triangle.

- The winner can either start a new game or say "pass". In case of a pass, the OP gets to start another one.
- After 12 hints, the point goes to the OP and he/she gets to start another one.

Note: Movie must have at least 3500 votes on IMDB.

Let's get it on!


Hint #1: Requiem for a Dream (2000): heroin and drug addiction are two plot keywords
Hint #2: The Skulls (2000): Tomatometer lower than 60%
Hint #3: Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009): Under 70 000 votes on Imdb

There were some good guesses down there but it only took 3 hints for KvlhokVjequs to bring home his second point. I think he'll remember that one. Blood in blood out is my masterpiece.

The Skulls (2000)

Really? You think I think this is a masterpiece? Im almost insulted.

reply

I didn't get the masterpiece clue and I have a feeling I probably never heard of it anyway.

You gonna start another round?

Perhaps he took the night off to celebrate.

hehe

So, Fred, are you one of those who think Blood in Blood out is one of the Worst movies ever??

Or do you like it?

reply

I'm somewhere in the middle on this one. The film itself is undoubtedly well-made, but I found American Me (1992) to be a more authentic, personal and urgent portrayal of similar story material. That being said, I've talked with a few people over the years who have passionately praised Blood in Blood out, so that makes me interested in revisiting it. Tastes change over time, so perhaps a fresh look will yield a different opinion.

reply

I'm one of those people.
