Enjoyed this better than I thought I would and rather liked the revelation at the ending, but the creatures didn't suddenly transform and they certainly weren't zombies....

...as we find out, they were mutants who evolved into different creatures over many generations and that took over 800 years. Not sure how it would make the film better by showing that via convoluted flashbacks, the explanation was enough for me.

Yea I know they ain't zombies :D I was lacking of words and Zombieland was on my mind.

I expected less too and quite glad on the film.
Just that it kinda turned out to be more of a horror than a sci-fi movie (and I'm a big sci-fi fan) with all those typical scary looking mutants.

Choke - a bit self-consciously bizarre but very funny in places. Great cast - Sam Rockwell, Anjelica Huston and Kelly Macdonald. Made me want to read the Chuck Palahniak novel it's based on.

I wanted to see this until I read the book (wasn't that good).
And of late, Chuck is a better talker than writer.
 
Uchi sagashi.
Short film at the Ghibli Museum. I was feeling faint and the movie made me feel kind of ill. All the sound effects and soundsscapes were done with human voices. Could have really done with Mei no Koneko bus instead. Bah.

I thought the film was crap, the book was quite good not chuck palahniuk best though. They are supposed to be making invisible monsters into a film.
 
Today:

The girl with the dragon tattoo...enjoyed it, good story I thought and stunning to look at.

Mr Untouchable...Nicky Barnes New York heroin dealer, seen it before, the archive footage of people shooting up on the streets is pretty mental, the sort of thing I heard about Moss Side before I moved there

Die Dritte Generation...Had this sat on the HD for a while, I'd normally have turned it off but felt I should see it out to the end. Hadn't much of a clue what was going on tbh and completely missed any comedy that I'd read about, maybe Fassbinder isn't for me
 
I watched the girl with the dragon tatoo the other week but watched it all in swedish without subs so parts of the film are unclear:D

today i watched faster pussycat
 
Just watched 'Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll', the Chuck Berry movie. Really enjoyed it. Must've been a great gig. Chuck comes across as a bit unhinged, Little Richard is hilarious, Bo Diddley's cool as fuck, Keith Richards is Keith Richards and Etta James is phenomenal. Great film. :)
 
Dark days... documentary about people living in disused subway tunnels in new york. Really interesting. Great little film.

Tonight im watching Tina goes shopping. A channel 4 drama by poppy woolcock (I think) about a young mum on a council estate. Saw it years ago and really looking forward to seeing it again after searching for it for months :)
 
Today so far

The men who stare at goats...not brilliant, just about bearable

The girl who played with fire...what the fuck happened? The first film was quite good, this is laughably bad, really really piss poor.

Is the third film as bad? Are the books as far fetched?

i saw that in the cinema, i like it when they all take LSD and fly the helicopter.
 
Irreversible...Fucking hell:eek:

Had it on the hard drive for ages. I'd read it was heavy and was waiting for a suitable time. There's no-one else in the house so thought I'd stick it on.

Think it'll be some time before I make sense of it
 
The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets' Nest.

The third part of Stieg Larrson's Millenium series. Now I want to read the books.

The subbing wasn't the greatest, but I can't really complain . . .
 
The Plan - more BSG is never a bad idea and this had its moments. Not sure what the point was, though, really...
