The Boys From Brazil
not as terrifying as remember it when i saw it as a kid, but still a fantastic and chilling movie with a excellent cast. lots of well knowing names, including a baby faced Steve Guttenburg in an early role, but the real stars are the two leads Laurence Olivier and Gregory Peck who is mesmerizing and terrifying as angel of death Josef melange. only downside is the actor playing the "Boys" who looks a right evil little bastard UNTIL he opens his mouth, and then we lose all sense of menace. at the end we are left with a moral choice of what would you do, should these boys be hunted down and killed or should they be left alive, because they are just children and they might change and killing them would make us just as bad as the Nazis. 8.5/10
