For the most part i really enjoyed this but i found the parts with the woman been beaten very hard to watch it was very vicious. One point where she had just given up hope and the guy was kneeling over her punching here over and over wow that took it out of me. Apart from that its not a bad film.

Hey, I do the same thing all the time. My latest is the Bourne Legacy. It will probably be a good film, but as it doesn't star Matt Damon I fear it will not live up to expectation and do something to jade my experience of the previous films.:pout:

I know that feeling the amount of stuff i have sold in the past i should be shot.

Agreed. I won't get rid of any music now.

Even a crap Christina Aguilera cd with a Manson esq lenticular sleeve stays.

I also watch every film twice at least now before i even think of getting rid of them.

Watched ROBOCOP on BD and it's still such a superb film. BD is very good too - I'd never noticed the shades of blue and purple on Robo's head and torso before.

If you don't have the film there is a lovely US tin dvd containing loads of lobby cards, an extra film and a die cast Robbie the Robot.

Bargain price to boot.

Wow, that's a hell of a lot cheaper than I thought it would be!

I have the dvd but ill buy this for sure roll on payday.:woot:

Looks like come Friday ill be getting Blu Ray and Robbie the Robot versions of this film.

Yes its a really nice set. The extra film is The Invisible Boy also starring Robbie. There's an episode of The Thin Man series starring Dean Martin also featuring the robot.

A superb value for money set imo.

The little bugger hasn't for me, so i don't see why he would for you. :coolblue:

Speaking of alcohol, i can hear it calling. ;)

Surprisingly gritty and entertaining British thriller with some fairly brutal violence. A lot like the kind of thrillers British cinema produced in the 70's. Sean Bean plays a soldier-turned-intelligence agent on a search and destroy mission against an islamic terrorist cell, only as things progress we discover not everything is as clear cut as it seems. It's not perfect by any means. Structurally it's a bit messy and some parts can feel a bit tv-dramaish and flat, but overall it's one worth checking out imo.

why is it a 15 cert? :confused:

Looks like the extra film is 15s i have not seen it myself so not sure. Im sure Dem can answer better than me.

Its a printing error,my blu ray says PG. :)

Loved it, I actually ordered myself a Treguard sticker the other day. I have no idea what I'm going to do with a sticker though.

It depends what you mean by Health and Safety, I doubt the Health and Safety Executive would care, I think they're too concerned with the amount of people being killed each year in their job. Now the private Healthy and Safety people maybe, or the Elf & Safety imagined by the Daily Fail possibly would.

Um...stick it somewhere?

Just watched "Nothing But the Night" (1973) a great film. Although it was a bit weird when I realised the little girl was Gwyneth Strong and who that was. I love Diana Dors in these type of roles, unfortunately they aren't enough.

Anyway I shouldn't be here, I have "The Fiend" (1972) lined up, then as many more films as I can fit in today.

I just don't have anywhere for stickers, my temporary move back into my parents is limiting my sticker space.

I really enjoyed the remake of The Crazies. I thought it was really entertaining; one of the ones I forget about when putting forward the argument for not all remakes being crap.

Oh dear. :(

House On Haunted Hill was kind of fun, but the other two...ugh!

Must admit that I have found BOTH versions to 'The Crazies' to be hard watching

Really? I loved Romero's. Found it intense and thought-provoking, with a great cast.

I thought the remake was just an awful mess with no redeeming features at all. I had high hopes from the trailer too. But it was a disaster.

Ah well...


I really enjoyed it. It's nothing like the Romero version but there's something about it that I do enjoy

I'm not overly fond of either version of The Crazies, although I do find Romero's version to be superior.

my day of remakes comes to an end,as the sun slowly sets over the rooftops im now of to scrub my eyeballs with bleach

NIGHTBIRDS - This is an amazing film. I mean, in some ways it's awful, but its weirdness helps it transcend its badness... it feels like a sort of amateur nouvelle vague kitchen sink nightmare, set in the derelict attic squat of a predatory hippie who takes lost urchins under her wing. As a film, it really does map out its own reality, which feels disconnected from anything around it whilst at the same time remaining strongly evocative of the bleached out end of the sixties. It may just be incompetence, but some aspects really puzzled / facinated me - like the soundtrack, which is feels on the brink of being overwhelmed by incidental environmental noise and has a really sinister, muffled quality. After years of watching ANdy Milligan films and thinking "this is shit, but I keep coming back - why?", 'Nightbirds' may be the answer I was looking for.

Watched "Demons" (1985) for what seems like the millionth time and have just finished watching "Don't Go in the House" (1980) time for some sleep so that I can watch some more of the TV series "Spooky" before watching more films from the comfort of bed!

oh forgot to say I loved "The Fiend" (1972) - I might be the only one but I loved the music in it.
