Tarantino seemed to be going off the boil after Kill Bill 1+2 (good but too long) and Death Proof (just average). Hope this is as good as it's said to be. That's tonight's viewing sorted. :pop2: |
After the misfire (IMO) of Death Proof, I had low hopes for Inglourious Basterds. But then I watched it - Tarantino sneaked in at the last moment to make what is arguably the best film of the decade. The scripting is flawless, the performances pitch perfect and it's overall just a joy to watch. Also love the nod to Hugo Stiglitz - now how many people would even know who he is? Possibly one of the most obscure references that he's ever used, but I was quite chuffed that Tarantino recognises the mightiness of this man! LOL! |

Has anyone got the UK Optimum Blu-ray of Evil Dead 2? What's it like? |
I've heard some great things about the transfer for Braveheart so It's definately on my to buy list :nod: And I'd like to know how the Optimum Evil Dead 2 looks too,if it's better than Anchor Bay's disc,which I own and looks like someone has thrown a layer of frozen grain over the whole picture :eek: |

Yes throat slashings were never popular with Mr Ferman. Especially for a 15. Surprising that much of the later violence in the film was left intact. |

Watched the remake of One Missed Call on Blu Ray last night, after picking it up for £4.50 in W H Smiths. Not exactly a classic but I kind of enjoyed it. The Blu Ray transfer was flawless but the disc was bare bones. |
Quote:
I quite enjoyed One Missed Call too.Definately nowhere near the best horror remake out there but at least the phone ringtone in this one was a little better than the original IMO :lol: |

The Anchor Bay THX dvd is much better. |
Thanks for the replies - I'll avoid all current Blu-ray's of Evil Dead 2 then. I'm sure there'll be a decent remaster down the line. |
2 Attachment(s) I just picked up a couple of films in HMV I got the Dragon Dynasty version of King Boxer and a film that I had to buy once I saw the title Teenage Hooker Becomes a Killing Machine a Korean revenge film that aparantly has shades of Tetsuo and Eraserhead. Should be an interesting watch |
i got THBAKM a while ago from cex but not watched it yet! looks great |
Just finished Inglourious Basterds. Absolutely loved it. |

but my copy is back in Bristol :ohwell: |
Children of the Corn-best it's ever looked and sounded! Those corn fields look SO menacing in hi def! |
Cheers for that, reaps! A copy of that will be mine.... :nod: |
No probs mate.:thumb: I watched BLADE RUNNER The International theatrical cut,and although not quite as stunning looking as the Final Cut,still looked and sounded amazing.:nod: |
Not so good news about EVIL DEAD II though. I recently bought this AND Army of Darkness..... Anyone know if AOD is any better? |
Couldn't tell you.I'm sure I did see that someone here has AOD.....I'm still waiting and hoping for a release of the Director's Cut :pray: |
Aye, Army Of Darkness is better. Edge enhancement does let it down a bit, but it's still a decent image - and a pretty significant upgrade from the dvd. I've grown to enjoy the faster pace of the theatrical cut - though I think I still prefer the "slept too long!" ending. :laugh: |
Good. I'll need to check out ED II soon.....:nod: |
Watched Creepshow on Blu-ray last night and it looked and sounded incredible. The audio is onlly DD 2.0 or TrueHD 2.0, but it's more than perfect for the film. It really doesn't need audio fireworks, it's not that kind of film. As it stands, this is the best it has ever looked or sounded - and for the first time ever it made me jump! An absolute joy to watch in HD. :) |
Another purchase then....:rolleyes: I finished watching Arrow's DAWN OF THE DEAD on BR last night,and the job really is sterling!:cool: If you have a 'dynamic' picture setting on your telly,I recommend using this.A bit bright normally for most films,but perfect for DAWN! Just watch those funky '70's purples and greens in the mall scenes jump out,and the old blood with that 'melted red crayon' look. Bloody brilliant!:coolblue: |

Got a couple of Shriek Show goodies in the post today. The Jungle Horrors box set complete with Jungle Holocaust, Eaten Alive (Lenzi's) and Massacre In Dinosaur Valley. Also got the Zombie Pack with Zombi 3, Zombie 4: After Death, Zombie 5: Killing Birds WAHOOO!!! http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...500_AA240_.jpg http://i43.tower.com/images/mm107059...-cover-art.jpg |
how weird is that, we both got zombie 5 today :thumb: |
Great minds think a like BS! Or those obsessed with ZOMBIEEEES! ZOMBIES! |
I just picked up Enter The Dragon on BD I read it looks really nice (I hear its a direct port of the HD-DVD), no HD audio though. Cant wait to see Bruce kick some ass in high definition. |
Picked up the Children of the Corn Trilogy (Anchor Bay) in CEX today. Havent seen these in years so look forward to enjoying them again!! |
Just finished watching La Haine on Blu Ray. The last time I watched this was on VHS and it looks and sounds great in high definition. The extras from the DVD special edition haven't been transferred to the Blu Ray, which is unforgiveable really but it can be picked up cheaply enough so can't complaint (well, maybe just a bit ;)) |
Not horror but now quite cheap is the Sex in the City Extended BluRay version. Great film and a lovely looking print. |
