PONTYPOOL. Fun words as virus film which plays not unlike TALK RADIO but with a mad doctor and more blood.
PIN. The first 30 minutes or so of this have all the makings of a scumbag classic with various scenes showing:children reading porn mags, a nurse shagging a life size anatomy doll whilst a child looks on and finally a prepubescent girl saying she going to have loads of sex when she's older! It settles down after that into a fairly standard split personality, loon on the loose story. Bizarre attitudes to sex keeps getting a look in every now and then, such as a doctor giving his 15 year old daughter an abortion and asking her slightly older brother to stay in the room as it will be educational! And said brother reading his sister and her boyfriend poems about incest and rape. It's all a bit wonky but very commercial at the same time and never fulfils the promise of out and out weirdness suggested by it's beginning.
WITCHFINDER GENERAL. One of my all time favourite films now looking truly amazing on Blu-ray.
