Given that it was about as subtle as a sledgehammer to the gonads it wasn't lost on me! However I always feel the need to FULLY explain my actions, I think its a weakness. Just watched Near Dark for the first time in years. Contrary to myself, I love the way it doesn't have the need to explain the characters, they just are who they are with no convenient conversation filling in backgrounds.

Last night I watched:
The Night Stalker (the telemovie). Lots of fun, I remember some of the series but have not seen the movie prior to last night. Well worth a watch. Love watching these old telemovies - the dramatic score rises as the picture fades out - cue advertisement break - then half a second later the next scene fades in with some equally dramatic music. Priceless. Followed that up with: Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror Hadn't seen this before, either. An early 80's Italian zombie movie, it has some interesting moments. Chiefly, the son of one of the female leads (obviously played by a jockey-esque adult) with an unresolved oedipus complex bites the nipple off his mother's left breast after he is transformed into a zombie. The ending, however, was sudden and I was hoping to see the final scene completed to its natural conclusion. Nevertheless the pace of the film was infectious, and despite (or perhaps because of?) the cheesy acting, minimalist plot, and marginal special effects (more obvious due to the very clean DVD reproduction), I was hooked. Will be worth a repeat viewing at some stage.

War of the Worlds (remake)
Not a great movie by any means, but very entertaining nonetheless. The special effects were really amazing. Even though I don't normally put a whole lot of stock in them, I have to give Spielberg and Co. props for that. Is it wrong that I wanted the aliens to win? Overall: 7/10

Went to see "Slither".
Spent a bit too much time setting up/introducing characters for a horror movie of this kind, but when it got into it it was fun. Nice effects and makeup, it was funny and fucked up...although I felt it ended just when it was getting good. Nathan Fillion should be in more films like this, he seems right for 'em...If they ever adapted the walking dead to film, I'm sure he could handle the role of Rick pretty well...

Flash Gordon ..
showed this to a friend of mine so i saw it for the 20th time. I love this movie ,, gorgeous to look at, amazing Queen soundtrack, and actors gleefully dishing up the most deliberately corny lines you'll ever hear in one movie .. first rate nostalgic entertainment.
