It's awesome. Lots of really grim black humor and a few genuine scares. Robert Carlyle turns in a great performance as the "mysterious stranger." (Trying to avoid spoilers here.)

It's unfortunate because Robert Carlyle shined in that film.I recall the movie as a sort Jack London meets Hitchcock wierd amalgamation,but with alot more to it than that. I won't spoil it for you Alky,enjoy the film.

I dug it. But I really fuckin' hate Guy Pierce as an actor. He's just one of those actors that makes films unlikable for me. Memento was cool aswell and its a shame two great scripts were wasted on such a shit actor. Really disappointed Guy Penis is in The Proposition but will check it out regardless because John Hillcoat and Nick Cave's collaborations are pretty fucking amazingly genre bending. Hopefully this flick will give the western genre a kick in the face like Ghosts... of the Civil Dead did for the prision movie. Ray Winston will be gold as usual tho I'm sure (Nill By Mouth/Scum you can't mess with that shit).

Ravenous is a great film & The Proposition with Guy Pearce & Ray Winstone thats top drawer as well.

Awesome. Sounds liek you all like it, so I'm watching it tonight.
Thank God it was on HBO, too, so I won't have to worry that I'm missing some edited scenes. I hate that feeling.

It's a terrific film, quite off the wall and wonderfully unhinged. I particularly love the soundtrack by Michael Nyman and Damon Albarn (who should do more film scores), and has a great performance from Jeffrey Jones.
It's an odd film in a way; the director Antonia Bird is best known really for making quite grim British TV shows and a so-so gangster film (Face, also with Carlyle), and it has one of those 'Oh, it's him from thingy!' casts. "He was licking me!"
