SS Hell Camp (aka The Beast in Heat) - Not awesome, but amusing. Church Review.

I might have to give that a go, truely a case of Separating the Art from the Artist.

Yeah I though Hitchcock was terribly bland. Definitely check out The Girl - 100% more compelling, with a focus on actual charater rather than tasty bits of trivia. Plus Toby Jones is so much better as Hitch, just as he was so much better as Capote. Poor fella, overshadowed again

The Bloodstained Butterfly (1971)

Got off to a promising start, but my interest start to wane before the end, as I thought the focus was all wrong, but everything fell into place with the superb ending.

Deadly Inheritance (1968)

Breezy, groovy scored giallo. The fact it doesn't take itself too seriously at times, doesn't make it any less entertaining or effective as later po-faced entries in the genre.

Paranoid Park..Slow dull and boring lost interest after a while

The rise and fall of a white collar hooligan ...it was ok but not great or owt to shout about, Couldnt help thinking it could have been so much better and the fact that it was so short didnt help, thought a lot of the film was rushed and think it would have benifited better being a 2hr film with bit more happening and slight better story with more build up and longer sequences.

I didn't mind that one. I'd rate Van Sant's 'slow films'...

Elephant: Superb, an all-time favourite
Paranoid Park: Decent
Last Days: Tedious
Gerry: One of the most boring films I have ever seen
