I still haven't seen Buried, though I'd like to. Have you seen it? Is it worth watching?

I'm still surprised Brody planted that big french on Halle Berry at the Oscars. I should probably re-watch The Piano at some point.

I loved it. It does so much with the isolated setting--the inside of a coffin buried in the middle of the desert--and held my interest all the way throughout. I'd say that it's worth watching, yes.

Princess Mononoke
Wow. That has to be the most magical, captivating animated film I've ever seen. It met and exceeded my expectations. 9/10

Awesome isn't it?

No laptop for 3 weeks, fixed today so I have been watching quite a few films!

A tale of physical and mental abuse that has an outstanding central performance and moments of surrealism and flights of fancy that curiously make the film much more uplifting than it's subject matter suggests. Well worth checking out.

Hmm. As a prequel it definitely ties into the first film very well but after I watched it, I wondered what was the point of it really as I didn't get any amazing revelations and I really wish it was old school FX and not CGI. A decent watch but not a film I will bother with again.

Crap. Looks amazing but godawful script.

Great to look at and I really hate to dis the rejuvenated Hammer Films but it bored me but then I am not too fond of ghost stories as very few actually offer anything new to the plate.

A gang of hoodies terrorise a school after hours, they don't speak and you never see their faces which is a great touch. It is well shot and refreshingly lacking cliches but I have rarely seen a film that doesn't have an ending or motivation for the assailants but it's a well made film for the budget.

Based on a true story. It's a creepy little thriller regarding a married couple living in the countryside who are terrorised by some locals with shocking consequences. The last shots are very powerful but just a one view film for me.

Body Heat (1981)

Pretty awesome little neo-noir film starring a young John Hurt and Kathleen Turner, directed by the writer of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi and ghost financed by George Lucas. The dialog is pretty well done, even if it does go a little into soap opera territory, but in terms of delivering on a film-noir experience, the movie definitely exceeds expectations.

Strange Days (1996)

My friend hadn't seen this movie so we watched it at my new place last night. This is my absolute favourite sci-fi movie and we ended up talking about it for an hour after it was finished. Seriously if you have not seen this movie and are interested in a show don't tell approach to storytelling, you really need to see this movie. For an added bonus there's a lot of scenes where Juliette Lewis is naked.

Super late, yeah, but just had to say I too absolutely love this movie. My mom introduced me to it years ago and I've watched it many times. Good call.

The Cabin In The Woods

My rating 0/10. This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I'm not really sure what they were trying to accomplish with it, but whatever it was, they have failed miserably. My only reaction to this was facepalm.

I thought this movie was great. One of the better horror movies to come out recently, imo.
