I don't loathe Twilight for a start. Hell, I get a laugh from watching the shenanigans of Fairys and Teddy-Wolfs at the bottom of the garden, sparkling fairy dust and acting all emo. It's so bad it's laughable and I lap it up. Call me masochistic, so I must be. As for Red Riding Hood, maybe I have blown my opinion way out of proprtion. I first watched it with my current she-beast and she adored it, going on for week's as to why it was so glories. I just wanted to go into auto-pilot every time I heard the title. I may give it a try again one day, in a year or two, but for now I'll stick to laughing at Christin Stuarts abysmal acting skills.

!cid_26D860B2-0B96-4313-BA2F-C626D697E27A@equinox-tv.jpg I enjoyed this film. I really liked the setting and the Nazi paintings added to how creepy it was.

FAUSTO 5.0 - Whilst I was a little disappointed to find this wasn't the orgy of surreal depravity I thought it might be, it's a good film and is well worth a viewing. Essentially it's another updating of Faust, this time set in the context of terminal medicine, where a jaded medic finds his desires brought to life by El Diablo. An engageing arthouse rendering, but could've exploited its depressing backdrop and featured some more of the bizarre video effects sequences that crop up a couple of times. THE DRIVER - This is a really great film, existential noir shaved right down to the bone. Ryan O'Neil and Bruce Dern are terrific as rivals locked in a deadly game. Elegant onlooker Isabelle Adjani conceals her own agenda. There are car chases, but even the action sequences feel like cold, detached meditations, silent apart from the wail of sirens. But this film isn't about action, it's an evocation of a chilly, psychopathic world where everyone's playing or being played. Surely a must see. MADAME O - Another world with all the good squeezed out. A surgeon stalks men by night in order to spread the disease inflicted on her by rapists... until she falls in love with another medic at her practice. The bad stuff stops there, right? No of course it doesn't, not until the nihilistic conclusion when everybody dies screaming. Noirish and erotic, and very haunting, this quasi pinku is suggestive rather than explicit in laying down its twistedness and comes highly recommended - DVD from Synapse looks great, shame it's dubbed but this in no way detracts. |

My first Argento. And my first AV Blu-ray. Horrificaly under-rated movie I consider on Par with Four Flies and Inferno.

Woo! Glad to hear you enjoyed this film, Nordic. It's a brilliant survival-slasher Went to see The Avengers last night with a friend. There's been so much hype about this film, I was expecting to be blown away. Whilst it was cool to see all the superheroes together and how each of their previous plots tie into this, I was slightly disappointed. The first 45 minutes of so is rather slow and boring, and the film is very Hollywoody and formulaic. But it's still a lot of fun with some hillarious comedy relief dotted throughout and some jaw-droppingly awesome effects. Here's hoping for more! In fact, here's hoping they turn Marvel Zombies into a film!
