He was great wasn't he. A fantastic performance in an otherwise mediocore film. The ending was just a bit...hmmm. And Smith's a good writer when doing stoner/vulgar stuff (as well as the more sensitive side too) but he needs to learn to filter it out when not appropriate - the sodomy gag in the last scene was incredibly jarring.
Recently I have watched
Escape From the Planet of the Apes - uni screening - good to see it on a big screen
Night of the Living Dead - nothing to say really
Night of the Living Dead (remake) - really enjoyed this. The same but different - sort of plays with your expectations of the original at times then does something a little different.
Torso - first viewing of the Blue Underground BD. Still one of my favourite gialli - has it all really, gore, style, soft core lesbianism, loads of sleaze, crazy exposition at the end for the killer's motive etc. The last 30 minutes are still bloody marvelous. Incredibly looking transfer too I thought.
