We are then treated to a scene of her in the present, waggling her tongue around in wild abandon, presumably reliving goaty analingus.
Not since I saw a pirate video of Marcel Marceau and Alejandro Jodorowsky on the piss have I seen such mugged up mime.

I didn't like this one, although I really wanted to. De Martino's OMEN rip-off HOLOCAUST 2000/RAIN OF FIRE is much better.

What's up with the Shrek films? Nothing to do with having young children, but I love all the Dreamworks/Disney/Pixar films. It's not all black gloved killers and flesh eating zombies you know

Don't get me wrong, I love kids movies, but I cannot STAND any of the Shreks.
Hated them even when I was a kid.

I was more refering to the last two instalments. I adore the first two, but Shrek The Third and Skrek Ever After are abysmal.

Gotta mix it up every now and then with some "normal" films, it helps to stop us going all Daily Mail and killing some poor ****ers

wasn't bad but the film kept stopping possibly due due to the storage of dvd and the film looked like it was shot without sound and dubbed in post production making it too cheap imo
still a good horror and the abortion scene on the lovely but-not-looking- good-here Debbie Rochon
some other yukky scenes were on show as well....
so no uncut dvd in the UK!
read yesterday this film is banned in Australia
yet they have many films banned/censored films over here but uncut down under....

Watched this at the weekend. Found more eroticism in it than the last porn I watched hahaha. Loved the very ending etc.

When Worlds Collide. Bloody Xtian drivel. Still dug the colour scheme in it though.

Mother, Jugs & Speed. Post Watergate film concerning a private "Health Care" firm. See The Bad Lieutenant hook up with Raquel Welsh!! See JR get beat up! Hadn't seen this in a dog's age, so enjoyed it immensely as it didn't feature any child abuse harumph.

Shame

Left me cold - New York looked stunning, but I never felt any emotional investment with the characters.

Caliber 9

Kicked ass! Top action, cool heroes and villains, natty score (loved the Jethro Tull style flute rock-outs!). Gonna enjoy this Di Leo boxset . . .

I felt that was kind of the point, there's not a likeable person in the whole film, and they're all emotionally detached from the world that surrounds them, therefore the audience is emotionally detached from them.

Not saying you're wrong, but that's the way I felt after watching it. The only thing I felt was a cold kind of pity/contempt.
