Always been a horror fan but this is a very particular genre Watched Susperia, Opera, Tenebrae and Torso so far. All class (if weird) Open to any other suggestions form you proper movie guys Deep Red, Bird with the Crystal Plumage and Death walks on High Heels are some I've enjoyed that aren't on your list. From a more contemporary view, there's some very good Giallo homages like Berberian Sound Studio and The Last Matinee. **Edit** Fulcis House by the Cemetary, The Beyond and Don't Torture a Duckling are good watches too.

Much obliged sir. I'll add them to the list 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll never come up in a pub quiz, sadly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Set a trap for my daughter yesterday as there is only one answer, I said which Wonka do you prefer Depp or Wilder? She said she liked neither but at a push Depp. That's how my daughter came to be having a Christmas without presents this year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen it yet but I doubt he will replace Gene Wilder in my mind as Wonka. Depp isn't in the running though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Got around to Asteroid City. Stylish and visually nice as always from Anderson, but from a story point of view I just didn't get it. Maybe I'm missing something, but I was lost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted December 2, 2023 Moderator Share Posted December 2, 2023 It seems I'm off to see this Oscar nominated film from 2009. Well I'm sure it’s full of the appropriate amount of Xmas cheer Quite looking forward to it tbh but I do think January would have been more a appropriate time to put on this essentially private viewing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
