I've seen 'Bruiser' once a few years ago.

It's an o.k watch but i didn't find it to be anything special.
I think the idea of a faceless killer and the way he becomes one was intriguing, but the execution of the story seemed a bit off, also once the character becomes faceless surely that would make finding the killer easier.

Anyway it is worth a watch and one i've been meaning to pick up for a while just to have it in the Romero film collection.

And to see if my first impressions were correct.

[QUOTE=gag;574393]Two where 50p and three where £1 and yes that is Dunkirk the latest one, two disc slipcover


I've never seen
Chaser
Paris 45 renaissance
Days of being wild


The Chaser is fantastic, gag. Na Hong-jin also did The Wailing which I think you've got. It's brilliant too.

For those who would like to know the 4k version of gladiator includes both versions, which didn't seem to be included in description.

Had a quick look at it and the opening battle looks spectacularly in 4k with HDR.

I echo this sentiment. Both great films.

Ordered a couple of UK David Cronenberg blu-rays from the HMV online store. Rabid and Existenz (that's out in 3 weeks). Now I will own bds of all the Cronenberg films that I like enough to keep: Shivers, Rabid, The Brood, Scanners, The Dead Zone, Videodrome, The Fly & Existenz. btw Existenz seemed like an appreciated heavy nod to his old fanbase. There are other films that I do obviously respect but I personally don't want to own them.

I haven't bought The Fly yet, but I have all of those other ones, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Dead Ringers!

I've not seen any of the more recent films apart from Crash (not really that recent) and Eastern Promises but I do want to check them out.
