But not nearly as good!

Except the Wild Geese killed their neighbours and never rode on buses!

Picked this one up for $4.99/£3.12 I haven't seen it yet but I'm hoping it's as good as The House Of The Devil.

I watched THE INNKEEPERS yesterday for the first time and can confirm Ti West hasn't lost his touch. It was a great watch, with lots of slow-building atmosphere and then all hell breaking loose at the end. Reminded me of HOTD quite a bit actually, despite the 2 stories being pretty different. These are about the only 2 horror movies I've genuinely enjoyed that have been made in the last few years.

I didn't like The Innkeepers personally. Thought it was quite lazy for Ti West, and this coming from someone who loved HOTD. If anything it is HOTD-lite (I think I described it as Slacker meets HOTD once) but whereas HOTD is a wonderfully sinister exercise in tension, The Innkeepers felt like a safe comedy retread without any of the frights. All IMO of course.

Alien 2 is a great disc. You will be amazed at how good a s****y italian monster movie can look, the films pretty bad, but in a bad-but-kinda-fun way.

Oh and the Blue underground House by the cemetary is a good pick as well, I love the extras on Arrows release but the actual picture quality was pretty poor.

I watched The Innkeepers for first time several days ago and wondered where it was going during the first act. However, when things settled down and the atmosphere and tension really began to build, I had a feeling it would be as good as House of the Devil and, due to the brilliant final act, it is and I really must pick up the BD.

I watched Livid last night as a Lovefilm rental and, as a big fan of Inside, I went in with high expectations which it thankfully met and, because it seems like a film which will improve on repeated viewings, is now in my wish list and a BD I will buy sooner rather than later.

Halloween 4 and 5 have shipped from HMV, and I picked up the Touch of Evil steelbook instore for £13.50 after student discount.

Beginning to think I can forget ever getting my copies of NOTLD and Enemy Mine....
