Maybe it was a comment on the fact that she'd hacked the pizza girls head in two, looked completely different, was covered in blood and had a fucking great big cut around here head?
Jesus...
Best ep so far tho, fer sure.

She needed to die - even if she did have some human in her, she still hacked up the pizza girl and was intent on cyberising the doctor earlier - even after being all nice.
After the programme I said to my boyfriend: if I'd been infested with cyborg machinery and was now hell-bent on enslaving the world, would you kill me? He immediately said "Yes". Not even the slightest hesitation

i thought it was the best one yet (but that cgi is shocking) dont agree with agricola's point about the captain jack subplot. since its a spin off from dr who, and there will be some cross over in the next series, they are trying to fill in the details of captain jack's history (such as how he got back to earth from the gamestation after being left there)

So many particulars. So many questions.
Jack has the smug dial turned up to 11. He should die and regenerate into someone more suited to the role

this is why i dont do horror films if a few poorly cgi'd fairies can scare me onenameshelley said:
Nothing wrong with a good scare, but I suppose it is like anything. The fx wear off and one needs ever greater fixes.
I have more horrors in my dvd collection than any other genre. Not so much slasher horrors though - I find them a bit dull and formulaic. However, a good vampire tale, however formulaic, always does the trick.
I suspect that vampires and werewolves will feature in Torchwood before long.

my own brain has far scarier thoughts than anything hollywood can think up, but its only me that they scare
ooh yeah a good bit of werewolf action would be good

That's what a good horror does though...sets in train ones own imagination rather than laying it all on a plate. Blair Witch is good for that. But those with no imagination find it goes no-where.

i just wanted wipe that stupid girls nose the whole way through i could almost hear myself saying "come on blow into the tissue, there thats better now". I was more scared by the last 3 minutes than the whole film, but then again, i know you get murdered if you go into the woods which is why i dont go, see just like i know if you see a zombie, run like fuck cos they only shuffle innit.

Anyone else felt like puking at Owen's "pseudo rape" method of coming on to a woman? I could barely stand to look at him before that, but now ... The sexuality in this series is fucked.

That's the challenge for horrors - to upset expectation. See a Dalek and run up the stairs = safe. As a kid you need these safe places. But then oops the Daleks are fuckin' flying!
In The Grudge she hides under the covers but oops - it's under the covers with her!!
I've lurked in woods but I've never been murdered.

Do you mean the bit in episode one where he was using a pheromone spray like a date rape drug? Or is there something else? (I have terrestrial, we get it on Wednesdays I think.)fudgefactorfive said:
I agree. Which is why I'm cross they've made an "adult" series but with plenty of trails pre-watershed to appeal to the Dr Who audience, ie kids.

OK, it's in this week's one, I saw it on BBC3 on Sunday, won't go into detail, but it's rank. Much worse than the date rape spray, which at least had the oh-so-amusing comedy value of enforced homosexuality.
