Being as the dvd case said it was the "extreme unrated version" I was expecting it to be a little more... extreme. It was good. I enjoyed it. I liked frontier(s) more, for this kind of thing.

Wild Strawberries (1957)

An artistic piece of emotional observation of life's love, regrets, and losses that comes with a highly sincere touch from Bergman. One of his best of the best.

Where the Wild Things Are (2009)

Planet of the Apes (Remake)- Not too bad, easy enough to watch but not a particularly good film. Acting is pretty good, Paul Giamatti is quality as the slave trader and provides some much needed comedy.

Sheitan (2006). Pretty witty little French flick that threatens to turn nasty at ever corner. The acting was fine, and the characters were a great trio of boorish thugs, potential sluts/teases, and creepy creepies. When things get going they get weird, with the central creep really got my skin crawling. The disconcerting feeling it generates is almost on par with Calvaire and Frontiers, only that it spends more actually generating this icky feeling, like a smoldering fire that may erupt at any time. Some things are just wrong, and this film seems attracted to such things like a moth to a flame. The ending, while not at all what i expected, was actually good in its own way. All in all i really liked it. Ashe.

Absolutely breathtaking...I'm not jumping on the "best movie ever" bandwagon, but it's one of the year's best for sure and has some of the most mindblowing effects that I've ever seen.

Deserves the hype - see in in theatres.

I liked it more than Frontier(s) because how it was loosely based on true events.

"Paranormal Activity"

While it wasn't the scariest movie ever made, it was still a very creepy and well made little movie. It takes a little while to get going. but it was worth it. A nice addition to the horror genre.
