Phurious

Y'know what I don't think I will (destined not to happen) - gotta take my car back home for my dads mate to fix - the electric windows have gone all wrong (I think it's haunted) . . .

Just heard 20-odd minutes of Space is the Place on Stuart Maconie's Freak Zone. Freaky indeed... and easier my ass, I only know three on yer latest quiz! Don't think easy/hard really applies - unless its all stuff from the imdb top 10 or something!

Oh yeah! I'll take that one too cheers. Bought Horror Express but haven't watched it yet.

Cool, thanks. I'lll have a think and let you know - Casonova was one for sure...

Ah ok, I'll have a think and chuck something over in the morning - it's trickier not having my dvd collection here for inspiration...

Thanks mate; and a Happy New Year to you, too.

The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec ?????!

Just had a turn on yer latest quiz. Tried to do a bit of google detective work on the bathroom decapitation one, but didn't work out...

Great stuff again, Phurious.

Hope you and yours have a good Xmas too mate.

Major shouting out for Deep End indeed ! Also nutty noir Kiss Me Deadly, which I was lucky enough to discover just as Criterion released a shiny new edition. Oh, and Bunny Lake is Missing too, that was a goodun. Wake in Fright is another (you seen that? VERY Midnight Video I reckon...). And that's only the old stuff, been a top movie year!

Look forward to the show, Merrrrry Christmas, and yeah, hopefully see you lot on the 14th.

It really is a spectacular film and one I must eatch again shortly along with the other 2 in the Europe trilogy.

CUT HANDS which is a brutal mix of electronics, noise and African and Haitian drumming from William Bennett of Whitehouse. Well worth your time. I've also been listening to "Throbbing Gristle's...

I've just twigged what this film reminded me of - great old comic Hellblazer. Think about it, the mix of hum drum domestics and occult horror, 'Kiev' instead of 'Newcastle', the boozing, the sleaze....

Brutally violent.A Masterpiece.

Seriously though,coming so late in the year on disc,this is a contender for film of the year. That's how much I rate it.:nod:

Well I don't know how the hell I missed that on first watch but yeah...facepalm :doh:

I really liked The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec and Phurious, you're the first person I've come across who didn't like it! I found it to be a brilliant fantasy film plenty of good...

Saw Eurekas Touch of Evil Blu ray this afternoon - first of many viewings, what with all the cuts/commentaries. Incredible film, looks amazing, Janet Leigh is hot, Orson Welles disgusting, Charlton...

I was also impressed by Del Toro's bottle face smashing in Pan's Labyrinth - another one for this rapidly increasing hall of fame :nod: . . .

Kidnapped was fantastic, and definately featured the best head smashing since irriverible, one of my films of the year.

A bit?! Finally caught up with this last night - never expected it to be that violent (that lift scene!!!) :eek: Mr. Noe has a lot to answer for... Needless to say I loved it. I wondered during...

I like THE STENDAHL SYNDROME not his best film. that goes to TENEBRE imo but like Peter Greenaway directing an episode of EMMERDALE???? thats a new one to me. weird!!!

Nah, carry on debating, I'm not tiring of it at all ;) . . .

if anything it was brooker giving himself a kicking in the last few moments, roll on tonights

Yes, I realise Argento's style has changed a lot between Inferno and Mother of Tears. However, if this is Argento's idea of 'moving on' then it would have been better to have remained firmly rooted...
