read articles that said the directors wanted to make it with as little
blood as possible. That totally turned me off to this re-make. If you
are going to re-make a move like that it should be even more violent
than the original, IMO. I'll still see it but I don't have any
expectations. Hopefully it will surprise me.

yeah Dead Alive is a classic. Horror is probably my favorite
genre so
ive seen my fair share. Bad Taste is another Classic, as is the
George
Romero Dead series of course.

Cannibal Holocaust is pretty cool. A lot of horror fans think
it's the
best horror movie ever. I liked it but didn't think it was
great. There
are some pretty brutal scenes in it though. Another Horror
classic that
has tons of blood and gore but is very fake looking is Dead
Alive by
none other than Peter Jackson. You would never think he would
move on to
doing Lord of the Rings when you see a movie like Dead Alive.

Ichi The Killer is out on the net ;)
The Eye had subtitles.
As for over the top horror, i just saw this movie that was
originally
banned called "Cannibal Holocaust" that was absolutely
disturbing. It
was shot documentary style as if you were seeing the footage of
these
tribes through the filmmakers camera. The filmmakers disappeared
etc,
and their footage was found blah blah. It was made as if it was
a REAL
documentary sort of like Blair Witch etc. It was made in the
late 70s
and subsequently banned because all of the animal killings are
REAL =\
not a very fun movie imo, and a couple of my friends ended up
walking
out.

I have been wanting to see the Eye for a while but can't find it
at any
of the video stores near me. I'm probably going to have to buy
it.
Another Japanese movie that is really good is Ichi The Killer.
The
trailer alone is the most violent trailer I have ever seen.
Definitely
sadistic. Does The Eye have sub titles?

I really liked 28 Days Later. Im sick of seeing the typical slow
moving
zombies that a crawling baby could escape. And yet, somehow
noone ever
escapes them. The movie had a very chaotic nature at times and I
really
liked that. Also, the "rawness" of the film quality added a lot
to the
mood imo.
If you are looking for good horror movies, check out the
original
version of The Ring called "Ringu". Also, there is this Korean
(at least
i think it is Korean) film that played here in 1 theater (so it
may be
hard to track down) called "The Eye" that was absolutely wicked.
As far as suspense goes, check out this Korean flick called
"Tell Me
Something".
I am a sucker for foreign horror/suspense. Many good movies in
those
genres coming from China, Japan, and Korea.

WEll...I just got back from the.. *checks locks on doors*
Cinema and *Gets cutlass from cupboard and keeps it near*....I
must say
the show was pretty good.
I mean..heh heh...didn't freak me out or anything..
*darts glances left and right*
Although there were some ....umm...edgy moments.
The idea was a good one, but I've never seen it done quite like
that
before.
It really did a good job of commenting on human behaviour.
And then there were the silly moments in the script that seemed
to have
been put in there so that someone would get killed and they
could do
some strobe lighty special effect thing :)
Showing the audience the two endings was also a nice touch, and
I much
preferred the first one.
Even though some would argue the second was perhaps the more
realistic.
A good show!
UNderworld and Matchstick men start in the cinema here tomorrow.
Has anyone seen both these shows? Which one would be better to
see
first?
