Book of Eli - Denzel Washington - took two attempts to watch it all the way through - a bit of a duff Mad Max type film. Watchable. 4/10

 

Green Zone - Matt Damon - enjoyed it, always like films based out in Middle East, etc. 7/10

 

Planet 51 - was enjoying it til I nodded off, kids liked it - must be good. 6/10

 

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs - see above - 6/10

 

Good Will Hunting - Matt Damon/Robin Williams - look, there was fook all else on this Saturday just gone, never seen it before - quite enjoyed - the scene were Robin Williams was going on about his late wife farting in bed had me in tears - half decent. Oh, and Minnie Driver looked far better than I can ever remember. 7/10

 

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo - its Swedish so no famous actors/actresses - great thriller - didn't bother me that it was in subtitles great revenge scene on the pervy Probation Officer- looking forward to the 2nd in the trilogy in the next week or so - well worth the watch and highly recommended. 9/10

 

That's me, Jonathan Woss, over and out.

I've never found the Exorcist scary, even as a kid, but body horror films scare me witless. The Fly or even American Werewolf in London.

 

Body horror is one of those genres thst is genuinely scary, even from the tamer end, films such as Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and Rosemary's Baby. 

THE KING of body horror films has to be David Cronenberg, his early films such as Rabid, The Brood, Scanners and The Fly are still pretty chilling even now.

Not that many notable body horror films recently, but the one I really liked, everybody else seems to hate and that's the first Human Centipede (The sequels were borderline shite though)

The bit where she goes backwards upside down, down the stairs has stuck with me forever. Freaky bitch. 

That particular Spider Walk has had a bit of a chequered past. Think it was included in some early cuts of the movie, then taken out when first commercially released and finally electronically tarted up and restored in 'The Version You Haven't Seen' in the early 2000s

Not sure I could watch that. The Thing as well with Kurt Russell still gives me the creeps today. There's just something about transformation that is seriously unpleasant.

I bet you’ve not noticed the pandemic.

You’ve seen a LOT of films.

Oh and Tusk, if you haven't seen that, watch it but make sure you've got a strong stomach.

If Charlie's Anals 4 is an artistic movie...

Well over the years I've seen loads, probably a thousand I'd say, everything from sloppy romances to full on horror flicks. 

The pandemic is the reason why I'm catching up on films  mainly ones I haven't seen for years. 

The three most significant films for me are King Kong (1933) as that began my love of stop animation films (Willis O'Brien, Ray Harryhausen etc) Rebel Without A Cause which I saw as a surly teenager and made a massive impact on me and Bad Lieutenant (1992) which opened up my interest in cult underground films

I challange you to sit through the infamous 2 Girls 1 Cup video WITHOUT barfing. Worse thing is this is only 1 of a 60 minute film, god knows what the other 59 are like!!!

The first 3 suffered from poor editing, which given the subject matter really isn’t good enough.

The 4th instalment was a huge improvement not least in terms of lighting, plot management, editing and cinematography.

Plus, each one of the angels seemed capable of ingesting kilos of frantically delivered meat via their soilstacks without batting an eyelid.

I assume that’s why it’s one of your faves?

It’s chocolate mousse. Fact.

Ganache not mousse.

Fact.

Haven't watched it either.

Don't Google the 'Ryan's Privates' filum folks, it's one for notorious bumdrillers.

Prefer the 70s one myself, John Holmes, Linda Lovelace, Jamie Gillis, Marilyn Chambers etc, not because they were sexy, but they were hilariously bad!!!

There are some very niche categories on certain sites. Really specific stuff.

Those glassy eyed girls do bumstuff so you don’t have to.
