that sounds like the entity , where barbara hershey is stalked and raped by a ghost. (spoilers) some ghostbusters from a university build a giant set of her house in the uni to coax it out and they freeze it with liquid hydrogen.. its fucking massive (like town hall sized massive) but gets away.. 

some time after , she goes home and it calls her the c-word while greeting her .

comes off like a The Exorcist rip off. is supposedly a true story, but i couldnt get the fact that liquid hydrogen is flamable out of my mind. its straightfaced as owt too. 

 

 

Remember it briefly, as I last watched it many many years ago. You're right it came across as an Exorcist rip off, but still a lot better than the official sequel to the 1973 horror classic.

Lady Bird. That's getting filed under time I'm never getting back. 

How that got so much praise and Oscar nods is a shitting mystery to me.

Number one target -  6/10. Could and should have been much better given the storyline they had to work with. Passes a couple of hours though

should I track any more down

I'm even tempted by the Cantona one that Mr pink recommended

i like counter reviews to that kinda stuff , read an amazing one once about kes, cant find it now , but it made me laugh.. about it being like being beaten over the head .. making him (the reviewer) more tory . and hes taking about having to watch it in a cinema for school in the 80s so hes like 12 . :lol:

all or nothing , but thats mike leigh .. 

a taste of honey from ages ago  . 

them bill naughton ones filmed in bolton...

the one with james mason and her from straw dogs (paul mccartney does the music, i think), and the other one with hayley mills and her dad. 

i saw some war film about navaho speakers being shuttled about as radio men for brigades in the pacific in ww2.. think nic cage were the main guy. pretty good, but thin red line and saving private ryan came out around the same time, so ..

Both great. He also had a good cameo in the marvel movie he directed, Thor Ragnarok.

Great timing!

Greyhound .

Made for apple tv so not as dark as Das Boot but fairly straightforward telling of the grim reality of being the hunted of North Atlantic Convoys.

Seems older than 10 years, Four Lions. Took me a few watches to really appreciate this I remember actually hating it first time, after being a massive fan of Brass Eye, The Day Today and (some not all) Jam. 

"With the greatest of respect Faisal your dad eats newspaper" fucking hell superb.

[DavidLeesMullet]

Just finished watching Rise Of The Footsoldier, which is loosely based on the Rettenden Range Rover murders in early December 1995. 

Overall not a bad film and although it has a better cast (Sean Bean, Tom Wilkinson etc), a lot better than Essex Boys or its sequels.

Next I think a bit of classic 70s cannibalsploitation with Joe D'Amato (Of Anthropophagus, Absurd and Porno Holocaust infamy) and his 1977 classic Emmanuelle And The Last Cannibal. 

[DavidLeesMullet]

A very funny Silence Of The Lambs parody I found a few months ago...

 

[kent_white]

Train to Busan - Never had a zombie film leave me with a lump in my throat before.

Reet good. Not quite as good as Snowpiercer though (the original one not the remake which will undoubtedly be shit)

[Kane57]

Train to Busan is excellent.

Over the last fortnight I've been ploughing through the Star Wars movies on Disney+

New Hope - 8/10

Empire - 10/10

Jedi 7/10

Phantom Menace 6/10

Clones 7/10

Revenge 9/10

Solo 8/10

Rogue One 9/10

Force Awakens 7/10

Last Jedi 9/10

Rise of Skywalker 7/10

Went to watch Aliens on sky on demand the film know comes with a warning that it might offend people due to outdated  cultural stereotypes ?

Fucking Aliens must of seen the film 20 time’s can’t think of anything in it unless its stereotyping all Aliens as killers

Hey Vasquez, you ever been mistaken for a man?

[Zico]

Can You Ever Forgive Me?

True story about a literary forger

Well worth a watch

Richard E Grant does good

8/10

[Zico]

Fancied The Lighthouse for ages

Got round to it last night

Half the time i couldn't understand what they were saying, the other half had no idea what was going on

I like weird but this was proper arthouse wank

2/10

Then Mid90s tonight, coming of age type thing, written and directed by Jonah Hill

Much better 

8/10

[Kane57]

Lighthouse is superb. Arty yes, but properly engaging nonetheless. Willem Defoe is an absolute master.

See that's now two films I've watched him in where I've turned off half way through

The other being Antichrist

Subtitles might've been helpful

[Kane57]

Well Lars von Trier is hardly known for his films being accessible. Antichrist is a strange one.

I've watched a ton of Hammer films this past week, The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires being especially shit.
