FrightClub hosts Boondock Saints watch party

moviesJul 5, 202617158

FrightClub hosted a synchronized watch-along of The Boondock Saints (1999) with live commentary; participants repeatedly praised Willem Dafoe and Billy Connolly for standout scenes and comic bits. Viewers debated the film's vigilante violence versus its broad comic tone, with several posting the line "I can't buy a pack of smokes without running into nine guys you fucked" as a highlight. Attendees named characters and performers such as Rocco, Smecker, and Sean and Patrick Flannery while calling out memorable moments like Dafoe's entrance and Connolly's comic bit. Multiple people said it was their first time seeing the film, others paired the screening with Fallen or the sequel, and several thanked FrightClub for the event. Short breaks and return notices during the screening showed it ran as a live, paced watch party rather than an asynchronous thread.

#nowwatching the boondock saints (1999) with the good people at #frightclub. this flick isn't without its critics for the whole glorification of vigilante killing thing, but to me it's just an over the top comedy which can't be taken seriously at all. and it's got the big yin!

I’ve never seen this, but I have seen “Over Night”, the amazing documentary made about it that I 100% recommend seeing.

Oh it’s not the glorification of vigilantism that bothers me, it’s just the rampant… everything. It’s such a mean spirited little movie that glorifies a type of aggro shithead I just can’t stand.

I only knew Billy Connolly from Head of the Class and vaguely as a stand-up before this. Sufficed to say this blew my mind. #FrightClub #BoondockSaints

I started this Fourth of July off by watching Jackie Gleason chew scenery to hell in Smokey and the Bandit and I'm finishing it with Willem Dafoe honestly doing the exact same thing in Boondock Saints. Perfect. #FrightClub #BoondockSaints #America

The last time I watched Boondock Saints was when I was a teenager and I bought the dvd and played it on my PlayStation 2 because I was bougie #FrightClub
