Wild at Heart (1990). Another spectacular Lynchian flick. Ashe.

I'm totally cool with never watching this again. That would actually make me happy. Didn't like it a bit.

That's usually what happens when you go into a movie determined not to like it ;)

Up in the Air (2009)

Loved this one. Just a great character study of a fascinating human being - well worth the great reviews that it's been getting. One of the few really human movies that I've seen in the last little while...this will also be high on my list of 2009's top films.

Never went into a movie determined not to like it. If I feel that strongly about it I just don't see it. I however went in expecting not to like this, my expectations were met.

However, if you DO like torture flicks, this might not be enough. Someone mentioned that they were expecting "more" from this flick... Well, for me, it was enough, but if you're really into torture flicks, then this doesn't really do much to enhance the genre.

4/5.

I felt too that there was something missing...probably that "more" element. Other than that it was a decent watch.

A J-Horrorish low budget crap.

Sexy Killer (2008)

http://img710.imageshack.us/img710/4865/sexykiller.jpg

Barbara is a medical student, a hopeless fashion victim and a relentless psycho-killer. When she mistakenly takes her fellow-student Tomas for a serial killer, it's love at first sight. Unfortunately, Tomas has invented a drug-fueled device able to project the last image imprinted on a dead man's retina. With dead bodies piling up on the campus, this may put Barbara in a very tight spot...

A pretty entertaining Slasher cum Zombie Comedy from Spain. Recommended.

That's one sick mommy.

Yes...too sick but a fairly done B-Horror indeed.

Manchurian Candidate (1962). Great classic that was way ahead of its times. Angela Lansbury is incredible in her role, and Frank Sinatra is pretty wonderful as well. The rest of the cast effectively do their kobs. The story was pretty darned good, and while threatening to be almost goofy at times, it instead lends certain scenes an appropriately dreamy feel. Overall a great classsic. Ashe.

The Video Dead- One of my favourite zombie films. Watching this film is a huge nostalgia trip for me. First watched this film in the early ninties, rented from my local video store. At probably 11 or 12 years old I was young enough to ignore things like bad acting, continuity or production quality and able to just revel in the fact I was watching a film with zombies (pretty good special effects), chainsaws and copious amounts of blood. It's fair to say I am completley bias when judging this movie, but it doesn't change the fact that I love it. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it, but in an era dominated by formulaic slashers The Video Dead definatley qualifies as something different. Would love to see this film get a DvD release. If you hadn't worked out what its about by the title, its about a bunch of zombies coming out of an evil TV set to cause some trouble....
