What Films Have You Seen Recently?

There is an Australian one as well but I don't know what the transfer is like - the extra's are good though and it still looks better than the DVDs.

I get the feeling it might get re-released this year though so you might want to hold off, €21 is a lot for a film.

I just didn't like the film.

I also really disliked this, and it's not because it's a musical, aside from horror films musicals are my favourite genre films

Like you, I found it boring and tedious, and once you get over the wow factor of the production values you're left with very little else.

all the performances were good with the exception of Amanda Seyfried who annoyed the crap out of me and the music is great but it was far too long and yeah once you get past that initial wow factor it is a pretty empty movie.

Tonights viewings:

The Collection - Great sequel! More of the same so if you loved the first flick like me then you will love this! The opening was pretty awesome with a nightclub rigged with traps! A lot of "pretty" teens killed off in a very bloody fashion!

American Mary - Good premise and executed well but there felt like something was missing. I liked the whole body modification clinic thing she was doing but rest of the flick felt average. Not a bad movie but not great either!

Transfer is almost identical. But it has fantastic extras taken from this and the AB DVD.

And original cover art too. (As long as you can ignore the big R)

Took a break from early cinema and slipped into 80's horror (Arrow)
Deadly Blessing (1981) ahh! Maren Jensen!
Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) ahh! Linnea Quigley.....at least from the neck down!

The joy of the euro i suppose even tho everything seems more expensive here compared to the rest of Europe.

Does life get better than this?

I'm a bit late to reply but I'm glad to know I'm not the only one up at this time some nights.

I would struggle to work after that little sleep but a friend at work is the same, he stays up until about 4 then gets into work just after 8. Co-codamol has been keeping me up, I'm supposed to be taking amitriptyline to help me sleep but it's not working. Just switched to Tramadol to switch it up because of the weird effects I've been having on co-codamol but it kept me up until 10am last night/this morning In a weird good way it at least didn't knock me out after that and I managed to get up for 1pm and I still feel wide awake. I miss normal sleeping patterns.
