Watching "Horror Hotel" aka "City of the Dead" 1960
An underappreciated gem about witchcraft and generational evil. Staring Christopher Lee, Patricia Jessel, & the lovely Venetia Stevenson!

Predator’s "Shooting the Jungle" scene exists because the director got pissed off... and he hates it.
On set, John McTiernan kept getting heat from the studio for “not enough guns.” After days of it, he snapped: “Fine. You want guns? I’ll give you so much gunfire you’ll get the orgasm you’re itching for, and then we stop this nonsense.”
So he shot the absurd sequence where Arnie and the boys mow down half of Central America (actually Mexico).
The line “We hit nothing” was McTiernan’s message to the studio: the scene accomplishes zero. It wasn’t meant for us... It was a note.
Ironically, dumping endless bullets into the jungle (or anything else for that matter) became an action-movie trope, one McTiernan even reused in Die Hard a year later.
