Yes. I am behind everyone else by six months. Glad I am really because this was disappointing. A camera that seems impervious to whatever you throw at it when in reality if you fart your cam glitches. A character manages to keep her high heels on through half the film's running time despite the fact that Manhattan resembles a war zone. The guy holding the camera is an annoying twat. Despite it's real time scenario, the cameraman seems to be editing the footage on the fly as we have cuts that should not even exist. Lastly: notice to cameraman. DROP THE FUCKING THING. You can run quicker without it. To be fair, the F/X were well done and the concept is a good one-just poorly executed. |
You should have seen it at the cinema...;)
Oh, and I don't think it's supposed to be real time...I'm not sure what cuts you're referring to *unsure* |

The real time was more in line with sustained times of attack. It is roughy set over a twelve hour period but certain set peices should be in real time because he is documenting it, yet he makes a few cuts here and there. |
Can't say I noticed it...:\

'Threads', a 1984 BBC docudrama/public information film about a nuclear strike on Britain and the effects it would have. I thought it was going to be fear-mongering codswallop but it's actually rather sober and extremely harrowing, even now. Despite a BBC budget it delivers on the gritty 80's TV drama front in a way no-one else could, you have to hand it to them for having the balls to show this on primetime. Threads is voicing Cold War fears that everybody had of course that have little to no chance of playing out today; I saw the 60's one which was also extremely graphic for it's time. I think it started something of a trend cause my dotty old mum recalls there were several such programs at the time, including a 'countdown to midnight' Armageddon clock on the daily news? Apparently the general consensus among her and her friends in those days was they would all sooner drive to central London and get vaporised than suffer a nuclear winter or the ensuing chaos. After having stuff like this rammed down their throats I'm not surprised either... Definitely worth a watch, not for the easily scared. It's set in Sheffield (a likely target) and vaguely follows two families from the build up of conflict to 15 years after the attack. In 13 parts on the choob. |

Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead Part 2: In Shocking 2-D
http://images.greencine.com/images/a...yofthedawn.jpg Basically, this movie is Night of the Living Dead with all of the audio stripped and their own dialogue and music put in. I only watched it because it apparently it's the longest title ever for a movie, plus it looked like something that would be MST3K worthy. It was surprisingly funny, and they somehow got the dialogue to look somewhat right with the people's mouths. But it wasn't amazing or anything. The title is probably funnier than the film. 3/5 |
I watched The Happening the other night with my mom. I really wish I didn't.
