    I love that "The Simpsons" insert at 9:29, one of my favorite episodes of that show ever ("Fat don't fail me now!").
    Ha ha, this film seems like a trip, although that Icon sure knows how to get around (maybe it's its own trip, I suppose).

      @Kamran Baxter Thanks for the title; lately I've been thinking about the episode 'Special Edna' when Bart said he'd get Mrs. Krabappel for Principal Skinner, and he'd even do it pro boner (Skinner: "It's pro bono". Bart: "I know what I said"). The author Stuart Woods used that phrase in one of his Stone Barrington novels that I just read ; "Unintended Consequences" I think the book is called.

    I found a Hidden Gem of a action movie Called Hard Rain in the U.S. and in other countries is called the Flood. It stars Christian Slater Morgan Freeman and Minnie Driver it has very well pace stunts and action almost all of it is done in camera it is very straightforward no stupid side plot or romance.
    I was shocked that I never heard of this and no one else has because it failed at the box office with a budget of 70 million and made at a time in the 90s where you see the budget on screen with very little digital effects almost everything is practical! I highly recommend it.
    A perfect movie to have behind the scene feature s with all the sets and stunts and water damage but I cannot find any.

    all of those people calling it a Planchette, are right and wrong,.. because thats just the piece of material that holds the important part, the Oculus.. in fact, this device is called an "Oculus Planchette". it is the Eye that is charged, not the board itself or the planchette, the Oculus is the only one of the items used in Ouija that has "charge" which is why it was always made of polished crystal, not glass or plastic, and the boards themselves could be blessed as to not retain the spirit's energy since the boards were often carved into Marble or Granite. the Oculus was placed into a setting on the planchette before use but was kept in a dark cloth bag separate from the other items. These reasons are why the modern day Ouija boards only work when someone wants to mess with you lol

    I never saw this one. That being said, it almost feels like, based upon your synopsis, the movie does have a main character: it's just that instead of a person, its the idol instead. Those jump cuts in time certianly do mess up the pace of the movie. Still thanks for uploading!
