Dark Water erie and good, but if you're getting into Jap stuff, I recently got Shutter, see pic below. It does follow the style of other Jap ghost films, but I found it to be more intence, with more scares.


ha ha I just got round to purchasing Phone myself, gona watch the next day off I have.

I just read a few good reviews on this one,[ Shutter ] so I e-bayed a copy for about $14 [ that includes shipping ].

Collateral. Very good. i liked Tom Cruise as a bad ass. Jamie Foxx was excellent. I missed part of it because there was an entire track on the dvd that didnt play... :(

had the same problem with my 2 disc version, apparantly its a pressing error... faulty batch of discs. You can get to see that track though, it's a bit of a hassle, but if you bookmark just before the bit where it goes dodgy, and then slow frame through the start of the bad part then play normally, it seams to play it ok.

I think they are both stupid. There, I said it :)


Most recently viewed movies:

The Chronicles of Riddick (Entertaining b-grade fluff. I love Vin Diesel as a psycho)

Collateral. Very good. i liked Tom Cruise as a bad ass. Jamie Foxx was excellent. I missed part of it because there was an entire track on the dvd that didnt play... :(

Best line in the movie:

"You killed him!"
"NO, I Didn't. The bullets and the fall killed him."


Last, the Manchurian Candidate. Though it was awesome. Definitely the best out of the 3. (Collateral was a close 2nd though)

I watched all of these within the past month or so... Manchurian Candiate [Unless you are talking about the original, which I havnt seen], I thought was awful. But thats just my opinion.

Riddick was decent, but nowhere near comparable to the very good Pitch Black that it was a spin-off from. But for a bit of mindless action, not that bad.

Colateral, on the other hand, was great. Amazing performances by both Cruise [I cant believe I just said that] and Foxx. The story was fairly original, and Vince was one crazy muthafucka.

"Black Sun: The Nanking Massacre" - Too episodic to truly grip you as far as the characters are concerned. as the film re-creates one true event and/or atrocity after another with the very few characters we get to know leading us to each of these re-creations but doing little else.

But there are some really powerful, shocking moments and sights and the last 15 minutes horrifyingly piles on the kind of heartbreaking, up close and personal tragedy the rest of the film was mostly lacking.

And the final scene is amazingly powerful and affecting.
It brought tears to my eyes and made me hold me 7 month baby girl just that little bit tighter.

And it can be taken far more seriously as a serious, dramatic condemnation of atrocity than the more widely seen, far more exploitative, "Men Behind the Sun".

i thought Riddick movie over extended itself a bit ...
the 1st one was such a stripped down action film
with a new interesting lead ..

the Chronicles movie got a bit too complex - it was all over the place - tried to cram too much in.
One thing wouldnt be finished and it was off in another direction.

Like an attempt to turn an action film into an epic.

It was visually interesting but i found other than one or 2 characters no one had enough screen time to develop ..
so i wasnt as interested in what happened to them.
