Designer1 Posted March 25, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted March 25, 2011 The Exorcist 3!? Really Gareth!? Really!? I think Exorcist 3 is a great horror movie. Relies heavily on suggestion and atmosphere rather than out and out gore, and by doing so it creates a great sense of foreboding and tension. George C Scott and Brad Douriff are excellent in it, and a couple of the scenes (the old woman on the ceiling, the infamous 'sheers' scene) are really top notch.

Designer1 Posted March 25, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted March 25, 2011 I have Mulholland Drive planned for tonight, one of those films I've had enough friends bang on about, but equally, the kind of film I worry I'll entirely miss the point and be bored or confused over ala Lost in Translation. It's not ridiculously difficult to follow actually, it's basically a two sided story. It's not quite as straight forward as 'The Straight Story' but it's certainly not as totally out there as Inland Empire. Lynch at his best imo.

Zatman Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Nobody else seen the film i mentioned on the previous page "The Hunted" with christopher lambert? Great film imo christopher lambert ... Great film :wow: Though I'll give you Highlander and maybe Fortress. Mortal Kombat is a classic film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It probably doesn't belong in the Exorcist family of horrors but on it's own it's a good horror flick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowDoINotLikeThat Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Agreed - Exorcist 3 is a good often slept on film. Only saw it myself a year ago or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not quite as straight forward as 'The Straight Story' but it's certainly not as totally out there as Inland Empire. Lynch at his best imo. Just finishing watching it now. Can confirm i hate and will forcing myself to admit I must be a thicko. Shame really, after being unsure for 20 minutes I was drawn in and was really enjoying where it was going and then around about the time of some late night traipsing for some spanish warbling I think I must have lost attention because it then all changed again, and then sank in the feeling of "oh ****, the git didn't just... oh damn, now I'm confused and irritated." I think directors like David Lynch just aren't my cup of tea at all. Just too weird. Same reason why I hate The Mighty Boosh. Self indulgence. Still, one down in the list of films I've had for ages before seeing, will trust that Goodfellas will be a more straight forward affair at least in expectations of what's going on!

CVByrne Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Mulholland Drive is a masterpiece, I sat for about an hour after watching it thinking about the movie. Only The New World pips it to best movie of the last decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, yesterday I realised there's a new Exorcist movie now. "The last exorcism", or something like thast. Anyone seen it? It can't be good, surely? Saw "Unstoppable" yesterday. It got bad reviews and I guess most on here doesn't like it, but I thought it was good. Ok, it's the quite ordinary hero movie, but still a good one. And Denzel is always good.

I thought it was great fun to be honest mate and it certainly didn't get many bad reviews (currently on 87% on RT which is very, very positive).

villa4europe Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 watched robin hood last night, what a bag of shite that was, id put it in the same bracket as king arthur where its tried to be all accurate and historical but ends up being nowhere near as enjoyable RC accent is all over the shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heskeygoalmachine Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Unthinkable with Samuel L Jackson is a class film, its pretty much about they capture a terrorist and torture him to find out where these bombs are and i guess the moral of the story is if torturing should be allowed and how far you should go. Pretty good watch though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
