What's The Latest Film You Have Seen?

i'd probably watch it again if they released the longer cut, but i'm worried that the extra material would be superfluous or might remove some interpretive wiggle room. it's still pretty long as it is, and i didn't feel like anything was (unintentionally) missing.

This was not was I was expecting at all and I was pleasantly surprised. It has a slight subversive streak running through it and although the plot was slim, it didn't run into cliched territory thanks to some acute direction. Not bad at all.

but isn't friday the 13th already the o.c with friday the 13th? i mean, it's already about stupid teenagers.

Yeah, that one was little hard to digest. I was kind of disappointed by it but at the same time I'd like to go back and watch it again.

Considering it was about teens it didn't fall into the usual topless shots and sunkissed body cliches and there is very little gore in it. it certainly wasn't brilliant but as I said-a pleasant surprise.

The night before I re watched this for about the 20th time:

Cheesy classic with a great soundtrack from the Jeff Healy Band. "I thought you'd be bigger!"

I went to see Fighting today....just for the hell of it and I wasn't disappointed.....it was a campy little fight film......the acting was a bit off and I loved how they filmed most of the scenes with a slight shaky action going on
