Watching this with a more watchful eye, noticed a lot of things that are part of our lives today, such as Microwave Ovens, SKYPE, overdependence on computers (Maybe a virus that makes HAL malfunction?) and calling cards to name a few. *****

I know what you mean about what the film is supposed to mean. I listened to this guy talk about it for 30 some mins on the radio. Then I watched it, and I just wasn't seeing what he was. I wonder if the writer ever wrote what it was about. Still, I also think films mean what's on the film... meaning, what's there even trumps what the writer claims it means.

The Incredible Shrinking Man

This left me feeling... unfulfilled.

Well done, Roi.

I, however, loved the film, but still very well done.

"Nightmare" (1964) 7/10

Night Tide (1961)



This beautiful moody gem of early 60s comes with a quite serious & psychologically twisted "Killer Mermaid" story, starring a young & innocent Dennis Hopper and the stunning Linda Lawson. At times the camera work & the tone of the film kinda reminded me of Carnival of Souls (1962)! Recommended.

Thanks, I think? Lol, didn't really do anything special besides watch a movie without colors and a lot of dialogue.

I didn't hate it, but it felt more ''action/adventure'' than horror, so I was expecting something more of a happier ending I guess.

LMAO! Oh wow, I thought you were going for the double entendre there. The Incredible Shrinking Man left you unfulfilled? I figured you were just displaying your usual wit and sense of humor.

And now that you've said that you were hoping for a happy ending, are you SURE I'm not right? LOL!

Nahhh, I think if I was going that route I would've said something along the lines of, "it didn't measure up to my expectations".

Murders in the Zoo
Interesting flick. Great murder mystery type with animals used as the murder weapon. Ending was a bit random, and the comic relief took a little too much camera, but it was good regardless.
