1 Attachment(s) Warning Sign. 1985. In a small town, a bio tech company dealing in agricultural research suffers a internal leak. A security guard and a doctor try to survive being locked in and fend of those that are infected. A man made bio-hazard liquid in a sealed test tube is broken, something that was done in Resident Evil except in this it doesnt turn people in to zombies but makes them homicidal, a bit like the crazies. This does have a feel of a tv movie mode about it but this was certainly good, Kathleen Quinlan plays the security guard who follows the standard protocol, Sam Waterson as the local town Sheriff, Jeffrey DeMunn as the outside drunk scientist, G.W. Bailey as the calmer scientist and Yaphett Kotto as the government agent. The acting is quite decent with plenty of good built up tense moments along the way. Attachment 244496 |

I think the simple premise belies a deeper, intelligent, allegorical film about the Irish Civil War – there are several scenes with someone looking from the coast to the mainland and commenting on the ongoing violence there. I could be completely wrong in my interpretation, but it works for me until I watch it a second time. |

The Body Beneath (1970, Andy Milligan) Meet the Fords. They are rather keen on keeping it "in house" so to speak ahem. When two distant relatives come into their orbit, let the party commence ... Yes, this is the one with the purple bints :nod::lol::pop2: Hammer it ain't. When he decamped to the UK for ... reasons .... he seemed to find kindred souls aplenty. Our main antagonists are a mixed bunch with the weirdest sniff of Scooby Doo around the manor. I may have been drunk. Ambulance (2022, Michael Bay) Hackneyed premise given a breath of life for the modern age (ie lots of drones :lol:) Reasonably entertaining nonsense from you know who. Meet Will. He's having a bad day and a suggestion by his step brother doesn't turn out well ahem. The woke is plastered on with a trowel btw. Don't get me wrong, I loved the majority of it .... :nod::behindsofa: |

Anyone ever consider reviewing a film halfway through because despite all optimism, you're pretty sure the rest of it won't make any difference? Sent from my SM-G780G using Tapatalk |
1 Attachment(s) The Return of the Living Dead (1985) I think fun and entertaining are two of the main words that should be used to describe The Return of the Living Dead. It's also an inventive zombie film with nods to Romero's classic Night of the Living Dead from Alien screenwriter Dan O'Bannon. A film that almost spoofs the genre without sacrificing the shock value. It's superior black comedy which borders on the hysterical at times and for every laugh out loud moment "Send more paramedics" "Send more cops" there's the equal in gut wrenching terror. It was a joy to finally see this on Blu-ray last night and the 5:1 soundtrack was a blast with all the weird sounds and great music from the likes of T.S.O.L., The Cramps, The Damned and 45 Grave with their brilliant song Party Time which kick starts the zombie bash. As far as 80's horror goes i don't think this is anywhere near the best of the decade but it is one of the most (in)famous and also one of the most fun. |
Now you need to watch the 5hrs+ of extras on the disc :lol: I watched both this and part 2 back to back a couple of months back, love them both. |
