The 1990 Total Recall is one of my favorite movies, and I didn't know David Cronenberg was the original director for it and created the character of Kuato and all the mutants (although it makes perfect sense). The puppet itself was created by Rob Bottin.
How Kuato the mutant was created for Total Recall without any CGI: https://www.slashfilm.com/1595588/total-recall-sci-fi-mutant-kuato-no-cgi-how

Happy New Years!
Hopefully yours is more low key than Alex Murphy from RoboCop.

Je crois que Verhoeven est en train de gagner le prix du cinéaste le plus mal compris par ses propres fans
Après les teubés qui encensent Starship Troopers sans comprendre que c'est littéralement une satire du fascisme, voici les fan de Robocop heureux d'une statue du cyborg alors que la thèse principale du film est de dénoncer ce qui est fait à Murphy, la corruption et la privatisation de la police.

Before Kevin Bacon played a much more complex man with a psychological sexual abnormality in 2004's The Woodsman, he played a man with a psychological sexual abnormality in 2000's Hollow Man. Where the fetish is voyeurism and the crime is ghostly rape. You kind of know it is a Paul Verhoeven movie from this description.

There are ( at least ) 3 types of movies: Corporate bullshit, like the shit Disney produces now a days, which for some reason are popular as heck; smart films with a strong message, which win awards but fail at the box office; and the third type: a film with a message, disguised as corporate bullshit, to trick the audiences that it's the shit they wanna see, while a...

It is known that the best films from Alfred Hitchcock were done during the days of the code. The restrictions on nudity and graphic violence gave us iconic Hitchcockian moments like the shower scene in Psycho, where Hitch pulls of a totally kosher psycho-sexual ejaculation of ultra-violence. When the code gave way to the MPAA rating system...

Sharon Stone, Michael Douglas – „Basic Instinct“ (1992)
Ich bin sicher, dieser sogenannte „Erotik-Thriller“ wird noch in hundert Jahren an Film- und Kunsthochschulen behandelt und seziert werden. Als Prototyp eines vom „Male Gaze“ dominierten, kalkulierten Skandals – und als Schlüssel zum Hollywood der 90er Jahre. Als Meilenstein des Kinos, ja, aber auch als elementare Verletzung der Intimsphäre einer Darstellerin – gegen ihren ausdrücklichen Willen. Und genau deshalb: Blockbustermaterial… (ARD, Wh)

#Liberated from #FB - #StarshipTroopers #PaulVerhoeven
A story of true leadership
Most of the arachnids appearing in "Starship Troopers" (1997) are CGI but a few life-sized, robotic models were built. However, during the battle scenes, the actors mostly wound up looking at director Paul Verhoeven himself who would stand in front of them and jump and scream, even chasing them with a broom in an attempt to generate some of the fearsomeness of a 12-foot space ant. Clancy Brown, who played Sgt. Zim, affectionately described the director as "a nutbag,"given to "jumping up and down with a bullhorn going, 'I'm a big fucking bug! I'll kill you!' I loved him; he was so much fun."
Verhoeven explained that his reasons for including the notorious co-ed shower scene were to show that for all its flaws, the Federation's army has complete gender and racial neutrality, as women and people of color are seen in high ranks with no issue. He added that the gender neutrality extends to the point where men and women shower together, pointing out that most of them are fascists without libido, too preoccupied with their military career to regard their nudity as even vaguely erotic.
When talking about the legacy of the scene in a 2014 interview with Empire Magazine, he mentioned the difficulty of including it: "It is strange, but of course Americans get more upset about nudity than ultra-violence. I am constantly amazed about that. I mean, I haven't seen any sex scenes in American film that are anything other than completely boring. A bare breast is more difficult to get through the censors than a body riddled with bullets."
Verhoeven and stars Dina Meyer and Casper Van Dien confirmed that Verhoeven and cinematographer Jost Vacano shot the co-ed shower scene in the nude themselves, on a dare from Meyer ("And it helped!" added Verhoeven). On the day of the shoot, Verhoeven had cleared the set of everyone except himself, Vacano and the cast, and asked them to do a little "fashion show without fashion" so that they could get comfortable being naked. When the cast was reluctant to disrobe, Verhoeven asked them what the big deal was, to which Meyer responded, "Paul, if it's no big deal, why don't you do it?" Quite unexpectedly, both Verhoeven and Vacano got undressed. Vacano had no problem with it, as he had been raised in nudity camps, but Verhoeven later admitted that he found it somewhat difficult; however, as he told Vacano, "Hey, we need to give an example." The effort payed off, because after an initial shock (Van Dien reportedly yelled "Oh God! Dina! Why!?"), everyone started to laugh, and the scene was filmed without problems.(IMDb)

#PaulVerhoeven présente #StarshipTroopers (1997) comme une satire qui utilise l'ironie et l'hyperbole pour dénoncer le #fascisme mais également l’impérialisme américain. Il s’écarte du thème de l’œuvre originale, le militarisme, pour mieux le dénoncer.

>10 years ago, I bought a DVD set covering the Dutch films of #PaulVerhoeven . In a thriller phase, and it was the only way to acquire #TheFourthMan which I enjoyed immensely. Didn't watch any of the other films.
Now finally watched #TurkishDelight . Amazing film, strong themes, beautifully shot, disturbing and heartwarming, tragic and funny at the same time. My only excuse for waiting this long is that there are too many movies in the world.

On this day (November 7) in 1997, Starship Troopers was released in US theaters. It's easily one of the greatest sci-fi films ever, and an excellent satire of fascism.

Once upon a time my review of Showgirls was the longest review in terms of word count in B-Movie Enema history. I don't think it would even rank in the top five longest anymore, and definitely nowhere near as long as a movie I'm reviewing next month. Still. This was once a magnum opus.

Paul Verhoeven goes medieval in Flesh + Blood (1985). Very dark, grim, grungy. Rutger Hauer in anti-hero mode as a 16th century mercenary (he butchers a nun early on). Uncomfortable viewing. Not a trace of romanticism or idealism. Great movie.

Today is July 18th, and it's also the birthday of Paul Verhoeven! Here he is, pictured in this brief one second cameo scene in RoboCop. That kind of frantic energy comes across in so many of his films.

On this day 32 years ago in 1992, "RoboCop" premiered.
RoboCop is often described as an over-the-top action movie. Sure, you can describe it that way, because on the surface it is. But, you can dig a bit deeper. RoboCop has some gut-wrenching scenes of a man attempting to recapture his humanity.
I normally post action scenes, but I'll post a more sombre scene from RoboCop today.

Paul Verhoeven’s RoboCop (1987), a dystopian cyberpunk scifi thriller with some interesting emotional nuance and some black comedy. And done with old school special effects. A dystopian future that now seems disturbingly prescient. Great movie.

The "Confused Breakfast" recently posted an excellent podcast titled "Is Starship Troopers A Good Movie" and it's a solid recommend.
The podcast if full of noteworthy commentary, particularly, fast forward to 56:40 for a fantastic fan theory regarding humanity's war with the bugs.

Both Aliens and Total Recall use flat screens depicting idealistic scenes of nature. These scenes were futuristic for their time.
It's worth noting that something which seemed so futuristic back then have now become commonplace.
