After reading all of the comments,I finally got to watch "The Feast". Excellent movie, definitely worth watching.I plan on watching "Ginger Snaps" tonight.I hope its as good as the last one.

Return of the Living Dead. Just picked up the special edition DVD, great stuff.

American Psycho
The Rules of Attraction

Bret Easton Ellis adaptation mini-thon? I'm still waiting for Avery's Glitteratti and Glamorama. I heard they aren't going to be released, but I'm still hoping.

Eagle vs. Shark for myself.

The Squid and the Whale

I was looking for Less Than Zero also, which I swore I had but apparently loaned out. Still reading Glamorama, but have already come to the conclusion that a movie would be cool too.

SAW IV
Now, I must say... I'm pretty sure my local theatre is one of the worst around. It's located in a mall, not a stand-alone building. It's the only option, unless you want to drive a good two hours out. The screening rooms are small, and compact. The screens are equally small in comparison to every other theatre I've been to. The projected images are blurry, and often framed incorrectly (I've seen entire movies where the image was slightly skewed and stretched... so much so that the video itself buckled inward, to create a semi-circle top line instead of the usual straight line. As if the image was projected onto a half-pipe.) Not only this, but the projectionists seem to not care about their job. For example, when I went to see Sweeney Todd, the entire introductory scene was projected upside down. And in context of this review, when I went to see SAW IV... throughout the entire film, we had to deal with these half-second glimpse of future scenes. It would show a scene, show another for about a half-second, cut off abruptly, and move to another. Only to have that abrupt scene shown 10 minutes later into the film, in full. This happened more then once, more then three times. It was constant.

In fact, I'm feeling as though I missed half the scenes in the movie. Upon rewatching the unrated DVD version tonight, I felt as though I had not seen various scenes before. No, the unrated version does not include a whopping 10 minutes of extra scenes. Only partial gore segment enhancements. So that is not the reasoning. This time, watching it though, things made a lot more sense.

So... yeah... I liked it a lot better then I did when I saw it in October. A lot better. I'm going to go out on a limb and be willing to say that the SAW movies do keep improving on one another. Looking forward to V.

Eastern Promises

I've been showing it to friends all day long. I'm slightly addicted, having seen it 8 times in less than 18 hours. What gets me the most is the atmosphere, the performance of the lead, and the left-for-interpretation ending. Do you know any other film that are similar to this? I would love to see a feature-length version.

I admit the only reason I went searching for it online was because the title intrigued me. Thanks for sharing, cause I've watched it 3 times today as well. :) It is very creepy, especially that long car ride into the dark. It definitely deserves to be made into a feature length version, but I'm afraid that it would lose it's steam after a while (like most movies today).

As for another movie that may be similar to this one, I honestly can't say. The story is a bit classic: the crush that goes horribly awry, but it definitely has a unique twist to it.


Anyhoo... just finished watching another short, directed by Julia Stiles: Raving.
