Perhaps all this has to do with mood and expectations at the time (things that always totally sway me) - I watched it in quite a distracted state of mind, having just witnessed the uber-shite 'Psychic Experiment' and probably more in tune with bad cheap thrills by that point. |
The Vampire Bat (1933) The Day The Earth Caught Fire (1961) The Haunting (1963) This has got to be the best ever haunted house movie. As many times as I have seen this film, it loses none of it's power. An absolute gem. |

But that said, the original is still a pretty good haunted house movie, the remake, one of the most god awful pieces of shit I've ever seen that doesn't have Adam Sandlers name on it. |
AAAnyway...watched Goodbye Gemini, which nonplussed my mate, but I just love any UK film from 67-76 (except Carry On England...). Geeson as always looking wan and distant, plus great supporting cast...Micheal Redgrave, Freddie Jones etc. Recommended. GOODBYE GEMINI (1970) Judy Geeson trailer - YouTube The Sigil. More FF (and poorly executed at that, there is a decent idea here, but not done this way, too many "outside" shots etc), but at 67 minutes it didn't begin to grate like Episode 50 or Grave Encounters did. Pass!! |

Marketa Lazarova - 4.5/5 The first hour is difficult to follow but the whole thing is visually spectacular and has fantastically atmospheric music, and it's so authentic-looking. I can't wait to watch it again, as I will be able to understand the first hour more now that I know the characters and have watched the supplements. The Devil's Backbone - 4/5 I saw this on TV a while ago but wasn't really in the mood and wasn't fully concentrating but could see objectively that it was a good film, today however I was fully into it and enjoyed it a lot more. As usual, Del Toro's creature effects didn't sit too well with me (although I like the blood rising from his head), but at least it's low on fantasy as that's not my kinda thing (I'm not into Pan's Labyrinth, but will give it another go sometime). |
"Dune Apocalypse" Part 2 http://www.sci-fi-online.com/00_revs...apocalypse.jpg In this episode Muad'Dib has gone into the desert and his twin offspring are in danger from the once Imperial House Corrino and their Aunt Alia. They escape with the help of their grandmother, Jessica Atreides. We are left with the cliff hanger of Leto Atreides choice to take the "Golden Path". From what I remember of the book, The Children of Dune", this is a pretty faithful representation. As it was made as a mini-series for TV it looks much "bigger" than it's budget would have allowed for. 17/10 so far! |
Watched Rocky for the third time. I only saw it for the first time last year? It was always a film I thought I wouldn't like. Turned out to be a favourite of mine (although I've yet to see the sequels). The scene where Mickey visits Rocky at his house is one of my favourite scenes ever! |
1 Attachment(s) I saw Wierd Science (1985) for the first time last night. The film itself was fairly average, in fact for a John Hughes film it was pretty poor, and the two leads a bit annoying. Kelly Le Brock was pretty yummy though. My favourite part of the film was when Vernon Wells from Mad Max 2 popped up along with Michael Berryman as gatecrashing mutant bikers. Totally unexpected. The rest of the film was fairly forgettable and very dated. |

5 Attachment(s) Attachment 116937 Attachment 116938 Attachment 116939 Attachment 116940 Attachment 116941 Watching all the James Bond films was put off the weekend actually just about to start DR NO right now but these were the weekends films. Thor not bad but not great i cant stand Chris Hemsworth as Thor he just annoys me and also hes not hairy enough thats not a beard fit for a God. Beat Street I came across this by accident on MGM channel had it on for a few minutes ended up watching it to the end and i loved it. Im not a big Hip Hop fan but this was when Hip Hop was pure and had something to say not just fools shouting random words and talking about how rich they are. Black Sabbath A great film with some great use of light and color a fine piece of work with plenty of great atmosphere. V/H/S I have heard alot about this both good and bad. Film started with high hope really enjoyed the first two stories but the third was so bad the effects were terrible totally took me out of the film so much i stopped watching it. Murphy,s Law Film is great but the character of McGee just annoyed me her string of insults were too stupid and too many most of her dialogue like dog breath barf breath sperm breath you get the pictures. Apart from that its Bronson so its AWESOME :lol: |
Evil dead remake Really enjoyed it, one of the best remakes I've seen, not as good as the maniac remake but still one of the best. For a change we have a bunch of likeable characters and i actually found this more intense than the orginal especially last ten minutes. Watched right till the end of credits and all I can say is I need to change myself I was that excited! 9/10 Edit Also like the little nods and winks towards the orginal movies |

Was going to view the church next but want a change of pace so going to watch some cheers I do have a 11 season too watch. |
Evil Dead (remake) a mixed bag of tricks, bits of it work very well, mainly the gore but on the whole it falls flat. Oddly, it reminded me more of a well shot Italian horror from the mid to late 80s than the original film. SPRING BREAKERS. F*ck DRIVE, this is the existential nightmare I've been waiting for and it comes sugar coated in candy pink colours. More a mood piece than a straight forward film, this oozes lust, innocence and menace out of every gusset shot. Highly recommended. |

I watched A FIELD IN ENGLAND yesterday. Not a patch on Kill List or Sightseers,but definitely worth a whirl! Two oldies as well which looked superb on Blu Ray- THE GREAT ESCAPE and GREYSTOKE TARZAN. The latter looked especially pristine.:nod: |
