Dreamcatcher

The men call the red stuff "Ripley", after the broad in the Alien movies.

Not as good as the book, but entertaining.

People say it's bad but I legitimately enjoy thismovie.

@dan0sz Watched it again a few years later. I guess it has to grow on you, because this time I actually kind of liked it.

Oh my God this movie is ridiculous... Instead of Dreamcatcher they should call it Buttscratcher!

Buttscratchah? ... Buttscratchah!

As children, a group of kids help a handicapped kid. He turns out to be special and gives them powers.
Years later, they reunite and a lot of crazy shit starts to happen. An alien comes out of someone’s butt and possesses Damien Lewis (Home Land). It makes him talk with an English accent as well.
The movie is IT if there was no Pennywise and aliens that come out of butts. As well as an alien with Down syndrome obsessed with Scooby-Doo. Plus the Losers Club took care of each other way better.
It’s also frustrating that a lot of the characters introduced are pretty interesting. Yet nothing great is done with any of them. Hell, some are there just to get killed off quickly. Spoiler: Jason Lee and Timothy Olyphant are the most wasted in the movie.
Jason Lee plays the Richie of this Losers Club. Yet, he’s Richie if they were dumb enough to do nothing with the character and kill him off. After some funny wisecracks.

"It's like Alien, but the alien found another way out!"

I did not expect this kek.

This movie is absolutely nuts. I'm not sure what's more goofball, aliens that employ eels with big teeth that gestate in a victim stomach and exit out their ass or believing that four males talk to each other the way these characters do. Honestly, they chat like they're at a baby shower where too much wine is served. Infected victims are easily identified because they fart a lot just before they birth eels. Pretty common.

The distinguished Morgan Freeman is a crazy military guy with a crewcut and calls literally everyone "Bucko". Donnie Wahlberg is unrecognizable and un-understandable as a mentally-challenged alien...er...guy, who is befriended by the Four Muskateers that talk like they're at a Ladies' Aid meeting. There's quite a few odd scenes where "Jonesy" is trapped within an alien's mind while the alien has taken Jonesy's physical form to fool the puny humans. But the alien has a British accent when it talks as the alien. Or something like that. Then to make it worse, Jonesy is searching through his memories, represented as pulling files from a dusty library. I'm not even sure any of this makes sense. I only watched it once and I've never read the Stephen King book.

In a very strange way, I did like "Dreamcatcher". I think it was a pretty awful movie, maybe it's even one of those "so bad it's good" flicks. But, I certainly don't regret watching the insanity.

This movie aged so badly.
