I recently saw Windtalkers, and Christian Slater didn't really have much of a role. What's your favourite Christian Slater movies?

1. Broken Arrow - I loved Slater's eager performane in this. He kicks Travolta's ass!
2. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves - Check out that great haircut!
3. Pump Up the Volume - Plays both characters in great contrast. ONe of his best!
4. Very Bad Things - Very funny in this.
5. Interview with the Vampire - Pisses off Brad Pitt. Nice.
6. Name of the Rose - Stars alongside Sean Connery in this. He later acted alongside Sean in Robin Hood.
7. True Romance - Best Jack Nicholson. Maybe there should be a "The Shining" remake, Slater would be great! Haley Joel Osment could play his son!

Great Slater movies i'm being recommened:

1. Heathers - Apparently this movies great!
2. Untamed Heart - I love Slater's shy performances.

Slater's worse flicks -

1. Kuffs - Very Bad, Slater shines thru though.
2. Run for the Money - Z movie. Keep away!!!

What's so wrong with Kuffs everyone???? That's one of my favs

BTW, i was pleased to see Slats in 3000 Miles to Graceland but disappointed to see him in such a wasted role.

You like apples??

[–] Scarlet_Fever 20 years ago

1 ) True Romance (CS' best film i reckon)
2 ) Kuffs (why do people hate this movie? It's great)
3 ) Heathers (cool, but wierd)
4 ) Name of the Rose (odd film, great plot though)
5 ) Hard Rain (enjoyable, if far fetched, thriller)
6 ) Pump up the Volume (very much a teen movie)
7 ) Broken Arrow (CS and Travolta save this film)
8 ) Interview with the Vampire (CS is underused)
9 ) Gleaming the cube (dated but still good)
10 ) Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves ("Blimey, he made it" = CS worst line ever, makes me cringe (sorry))

[–] YoU_MuSt_NeVeR_MoVe_ThE_BoDy 20 years ago

No particular order...

Untamed Heart (my very first Christian Slater movie)
Heathers
Kuffs (I don't know why people hate this film, either)
Robin Hood: POT ( Lovin the hair)
True Romance
Bed of Roses
Murder in the First (excellent performances from Christian Slater and Kevin Bacon)

ohh yes and when I was little I loved Fern Gully

What are we doing all this running for? Arent we all gonna be in cars? -Kuffs

[–] mikec1 20 years ago

The line from Robin Hood is NOT "blimey he cleard it," but "*beep* me he cleard it."
If you put caption on the movie it will show you what he really said.

My personal favorite CS movie is Star Trek VI
No not really
1)Murder in the First (why? this is the first movie he had real emotions and seemed like a real person. There was no acking there.)
2)Pump up the Volume (the movie where I first noticed him)
3)Untamed Heart
4)Interview With a Vampire (he did a very good job with the role that had originally been River Phoenix's)
5)True Romance (he's Clarence, nuff said)
6)Robin Hood
7)Heathers
8)Legend of Billie Jean
9)Gleaming the Cube
10)Broken Arrow
