God Bless America
A letdown after the fantastic World’s Greatest Dad. This one felt like a 5 minute Charlie Brooker rant stretched to 90 minutes. While it’s (easy) targets were all legitimate figures of hate, seeing them gunned down one by one I found surprisingly unentertaining. It all felt a bit redundant after James Gunn’s Super (and Ellen Page’s character was so much funnier and likable than her annoying counterpart in this film).

A Night in the Woods
Got off to a decent start, especially when it seemed to be trying to escape the Blair Witch comparisons by developing the possibility of a more human than supernatural menace at play. But the final 30 minutes ditched any sense of human drama and descended into utterly dissatisfying run-n-scream.

La Sorella Di Ursula/ The Sister of Ursula - decent giallo that's ridiculously high on sleaze and low on logic and unpredictability. Has a really rushed ending and the most anticlimactic demise of a black gloved killer to date but still a worthy watch for fans of the genre.

Cannibal Holocaust - still powerful and shocking, still excellent in spite of its own hypocrisy.

The Last Valley - Anybody remember this one? Finally watched this for the first time last night after hunting for at least a widescreen copy. A genuinely powerful and unjustly maligned epic set around The Thirty Years War, in fact I would go as far as to now place this film easily among my favourite films of all time. Please let this film have a Blu Ray one day, it's a forgotten gem that truly deserves a real restoration.

I've never seen it Ninja, but I know it by name because I like the fiction of James Clavell - Shogun is an incredible book. Great post, great watch...

Funnily enough I just bought the entire Shogun TV series on DVD, can't wait to sit and watch it all.

Yep, that show was a big deal in my house when I was a kid. Definitely post you thoughts on it in the TV forum when you get around to watching it. I re-read the book every couple of years and it's a great immersive month-long read...
