No dialogue. Just plot.
Watched this last night. Just felt they cut too much out of the book & changed some important parts but i suppose there was a lot to fit in. Was all a bit meh. Nice scenery though.

Left Bank - A Belgian supernatural thriller and the best horror film I've seen since Let the Right One In. It's a slow burner, but very atmospheric and it reminded me of both Lars Von Trier's The Kingdom and Rosemary's Baby. It's about a runner who has to stop training for a while because of an illness. She becomes involved with a man she meets in the changing rooms. To escape her controlling mother, she moves into his flat, which is in a run down tower block where something sinister appears to go on in the basement. Then she starts to investigate what happened to the young woman who lived in her her boyfriends flat before he moved in.
This is one of those films that keeps taking turns just when you think you know where it's going. It starts out as a love story, turns into a mystery and then things start getting weird. It also has a genuinely original pay off. Shame this didn't get a cinema release here, it's a great film.

I think this was the first big outing withe Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy playing opposite. Basically it's the story of how a bluestocking newspaper columnist is humbled by a tough-guy sports reporter. Historically interesting, in that even while Rosie was riveting, there was already an emphasis on how women's place was really in the home.
The first hour is pretty good, especially when KH flashes her legs. After the scene where she tries to explain the intellectual roots of Fascism to ST while off her face on whiskey it all goes downhill from there.

Last Man On Earth, a Vincent Price film from 1964. A fantastic and really creepy apocalyptic zombie film, basically where George Romero ripped off his ideas for Night Of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead! some scenes look almost identical, and the whole idea of the film, all the scenes of the deserted city, the last survivor in a world of zombies, it is excellent.

Batman Returns - the plot's negligible but it's easily my favourite Batman film for the following reasons: 1. Danny DeVito and Michelle Pfeiffer are both superb in it - Michael Keaton's Batman is almost a guest star in his own movie! 2. Tim Burton's Gotham City looks fantastic. 3. I love the way it takes the campery of the 60s TV series and gives it a much darker edge.
If Christopher Nolan's Batman films had one-tenth of this film's wit and imagination they'd be substantially better than they are.

Depite the silly penguin battle it's my favourite Batman too. Gotham truly looks spectacular in this one and Pfeiffer in particular is just brilliant.
that's vincent price too isn't it? think i might take out Carnival of Souls next, that sounds like it is in the same creepy mood.
oh also i love that one of the zombies can speak normally, so they are all acting like night of the living dead zombies and then one of the pipes up "Morgan let me in! we are going to kill you!"

They would make a great double feature. Romero has acknowledged that Carnival of Souls was a major influence on Night of the Living Dead.
make it triple feature, showing night of the living dead at the end. actually you have to have dawn of the dead in there too, a quadruple.

It'll never happen but I'd sell a kidney to see her reprise the role - she lights up Batman Returns like a firework display.

omega man is charlton heston - but the 'zombies'/'vampires' are sentient beings with a great flamboyant leader

I really like the first half of The Omega Man, but always thought the albino "family" were rather silly monsters. Mind, the Ron Grainer soundtrack is one of the best film scores of the 70s.
So far nobody filmed I Am Legend with the monsters being vampires, as they are in the novel.

Sorry, you lost me there. Romero never filmed I Am Legend.
