TRAILER PARK BOYS.

Comedy genius, the boys get out of prison (again) and decide to start ripping off loose change, all the while Ricky must try and win back lucy whose become a lap dancer, and julian has fallen for one of her co-workers. The pair and their buddy bubbles must also contend with mr lahey (as drunk as ever) and cheesburger eating randy. Probably the best £1.99 I ever spent in a charity shop!

Eden Lake - genuinely scary and unnerving due to its portrayal of violence. Does the whole violence begets violence thing and nice people turning hostile for survival really well with a neat nod to Last House on the Left at the end. I didn't find the politics of it too problematic but I guess I chose not to believe that the filmmarkers were implying the gang and their family were representative of their class (although the overwhelmingly positive Daily Mail review is concerning). Bleak ending too and I still don't think I'm forgiven by my girlfriend for watching it with her yesterday

Jackie Brown - still one of my favourite Tarantino films and the only one with characters you really care about. Even at two and a half hours it doesn't outstay its welcome and the twisty-turny plot is fantastically written. Some excellent long shots in it too especially the execution of Beaumont and the tracking shots in the mall near the end.

As always, an excellent use of your time, and Twitch of the Death Nerve is a great "intro" to Bava imo. :)

I agree with you on both counts as Eden Lake is one of the most gruelling British horror films of recent years and a compelling watch. I haven't yet seen Django Unchained, but Jackie Brown is Tarantino's best film for most of the reasons you stated above.

Last night I watched West of Memphis.
The documentary on the West Memphis 3 murders.

Very interesting and well made doc! I used to follow the story quite well but over the course of making the film and new trail I lost track and this was done well in how the first 45 mins was a intro into what happened back in 1993 and then it goes onto the trail and then the new trail on freeing the wrongly accused. Now some people still think they were guilty but I am not one of those people.
