Still, Halloween is clearly the only slasher movie that ever needed to be made. No matter how many decent ones came out afterward, they still only managed to dilute the brilliance of the original, which was a force of nature. If only it was the work of a sexual sadist.

Sex with women has never been so depressing.

Fantastic movie. Every film Steve McQueen has directed so far in his career has been great in it's own right, and you should definitely check out Hunger if you haven't already.

I tried to download it but I can't find a torrent, and I agree it was fantastic. I loved the lighting in it so much.

The lighting, the camera work, the attention to detail, it's all there with his film making. He's one of the best style over substance directors working today as far as I'm concerned. There's a straight shot in Hunger that must last at least 30 minutes, and it blows me away every time I see it.

Saw two movies yesterday in Dublin on a rest day. I'm on my phone so this will be very brief.
The Jungle Book - second time I've seen it. Just as good. Bill Murray slays me. Best CGI I've ever seen. Son of Saul - Very good. Shot from only Saul's POV. We never leave him. Cool aspect ratio too. Bleak as hell. Hauntingly brutal. |
