The Mask
Directed by Chuck Russell
Timid bank clerk Stanley Ipkiss discovers a magical mask infused with the spirit of the Norse god Loki. Donning it transforms him into an unrestrained, green-faced, cartoon-like wild man. While the mask grants him the confidence to woo a local singer, it also makes him the target of a ruthless mobster. From TMDB

The first Italian horror film, opening the floodgates of an iconic era of film history Black Sunday has Barbara Steele as a dual role of the witch and the victim, as well as zombies and vampiric rites. Let's go!

positive · AI labelView post →#KillingEve was my introduction to Jodie Comer. I already knew Sandra Oh is everything. But Jodie? I knew nothing about her. But WOW. It’s like when “The Mask of Zorro” introduced me to Catherine Zeta-Jones as a kid. I sat up in that movie theater SHOOK. Still gay, but SHOOK.
neutral · AI labelView post →While most folks are talking about Chuck Russell's directorial efforts like THE MASK, NIGHTMARE ON ELMSTREET 3, and THE BLOB, for my money his script for DREAMSCAPE was a *huge* inspiration for me & proved incredibly formative. My God, what a rad movie full of big ideas. Chuck was an amazing writer.

neutral · AI labelView post →It's so funny to me how often THE MASK OF ZORRO gets left out of the 90s pulp movie conversation due to it being a smash critical and commercial success and not an overbudgeted box office bomb beloved only by paperback perverts like us
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't want to get TOO ahead of myself here but: #iHunt: The Feature Film is now in development. Officially. And we have a casting director, who was responsible for casting one of my all-time favorite indie movies, Behind The Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Onion AV Club review of The Mask of Zorro mentioned "the almost comically beautiful Catherine Zeta-Jones," and that's exactly right: When I saw that movie I literally burst out laughing when she appeared, not believing someone could be that gorgeous.
neutral · AI labelView post →Oops, I nearly forgot to make a movie recommendation for tonight! Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is a fantastically clever slasher movie spoof mockumentary where a film crew follow a would be slasher villain who wants to follow in the footsteps of Jason and Michael Myers, etc.
neutral · AI labelView post →The director is not on Bluesky, but “Saq’nikte’ and the Spirit of the Mask” is a Guatemala-Uruguay short film I’ve been helping out for a little bit, and it’s almost done. It’s pretty cute too 👇👇 #indieanimation

positive · AI labelView post →What do y'all think is the single biggest downgrade, the single biggest gap in quality, from a movie to its sequel? For me it's gotta be The Mask to Son of the Mask.

neutral · AI labelView post →Thank you for your lovely review! It was such a fun film to work on — and the director, Martin Campbell, went on to direct such films as GOLDENEYE, THE MASK OF ZORRO and CASINO ROYALE, among many others.

neutral · AI labelView post →Is The Mask of Fu Manchu a horror film just because Boris Karloff is in it and it contains creepy scenes of torture? Maybe, maybe not. Instead of posting Boris in his, um, remarkable makeup, here are the ineffably pretty Charles Starrett, who gets stripped and pawed, and marvelous Myrna Loy.

This movie made me a fan of Jim Carrey and kick-started my obsession with gorgeous blondes wearing a red dress. Ms Diaz's debut is a core memory of mine.

neutral · AI labelView post →Agreed. Even a film of dubious quality can be interesting to look at and analyse the creative decisions made that led to the final cut. It's why I find movies like "Son of the Mask" and "Master of Disguise" so fascinating to watch and learn about to understand the choices the filmmakers made.
