Watched the core last night, god an awful mistake to do, generic disaster movie with substandard acting. Aaron Eckhart is a good actor yet he's bad.

Also managed to fit in Don Siegels original Invasion Of The Body Snatchers last night. I've not seen this since it was on a BBC2 double bill years back with Night of the Living Dead. Perfect middle of the night movie this as a small town doctor slowly starts to realise somethings amiss with the locals. I love the almost routine matter of fact way the invaders go about there invading. Carrying the pods about like they're just having a spring clean. |

Re-animator. Stuart Gordon's Debut takes H.P Lovecraft's pulpy schlock horror and crafts a laugh out-loud horror comedy that still holds up today. I gave the integral cut a go today but frankly its nice to have as an added extra but it really doesn't work as a film. Gordon's ferocious horror is benefited by its pacing, the integral cut wrecks that. The stuff. Larry cohen uses the horror genre to take a swipe at fast food culture. The Stuff does not work as well as a film as some of Cohen's best films but it's entertaining nonetheless. The idea of America slowly being overtaken by a sentient foodstuff that consumes the people who consume it seems just as relevant a look at the destructive side of consumer culture as when it was made. Gravity. Genuinely breathtaking cinema that manages to make up for the poisonous trash like The blind side that has blighted Sandra Bullocks career. Gravity had me gripped from the get go and made me regret not trying to catch it on an imax screen. |

I watched Mothra VS Godzilla last night, the first one of the older Godzilla movies that I see (except the original) and today I watched The Terror of Mechagodzilla. Both were over my expectations and they were very entertaining, but that doesn't mean that movies are truly good. |
