Seraphim Falls (2006)
I last watched this on dvd when it initially came out so some fourteen years later this felt like a whole new movie.
For the first hour and twenty minutes we have an exciting hunter vs hunted survival epic through snowy mountains through the pastures and onto the deserts as an excellent Liam Neeson and his five man posse attempts to capture the equally excellent Pierce Brosnan.
What i appreciated more on this viewing was the cameo appearances of Wes Studi and Angelica Huston. On realising who they were portraying meant the finale made a lot more sense and actually added to the films revisionist strategy.
Beautifully made and nicely acted, Seraphim Falls gave away many more secrets this time around and proved a more complete and rewarding viewing experience.
Oh and Pierce Brosnan slits open a guys stomach so he can warm his hands on his intestines. Eat your heart out The Revenant.
