Both this and the Crow have their weak points but they were infintaley cooler than the Matrix. I bet William Gibson is fucked off with the Ted Theodore Logan style his work was stolen from (Matrix - perhaps bastardised would be a better term in this case) and tainted with (Johnny Mnemonic).


"Whoa..." :rolleyes: it was all part of the post Starship Troopers insulting sci-fi experience.

I guess the same could be said about the intro of High Tension in regard to the spoiler deal you were talking about... still doesn't take away any enjoyment from the first viewing at least.

Dark City is a great flick especially for Melissa George (she has scream queen potential stamped all over her) and Frank Gallacher's roles prooving they had cred outside of shitty soaps and made for TV flicks. One of the better recent Tech-Noir vehicles (I tried to find a pic of the night club in the O.G Terminator but couldn't hahaha :) ) and is quite possibly the last sci-fi flick in awhile that had a impact on me. Seems like that genre has crashed and burned latley which is a shame really.
But whatever the best is yet to come..... we'll just have to boldly sit thru Matrix clones for a bit.
