Great time capsule at least, how attitudes change etc etc. Still a tad clunky for all that.


Laserblast
(1978)

What's a young man to do with his life? Does finding a strange appliance in the desert have any bearing? A slightly flat affair, our lead is a smidgen on the unlikeable side. Felt also it was missing one crucial scene at the end, so you can't win 'em all ...


My Bloody Valentine (1981)

So stuck this on to round out the evening. Still unsure as to whether Canadians refer to everyone under 30 as "kids" ahem , as they all work in the local mine (and all look just as "young" as the class in Please Sir! tbh )
Regardless, the restored material looks as good as it ever will now I suppose, giving it a harder edge akin to The Prowler imho. A pity they never continued with it really ...
I Disagree some films are better when they are left alone,
Dead and buried
Burning
helps them become more cult, classic instead of being ruined with endless and pointless sequels like
Tcm
Fri 13
Halloween
Alien
Hellraiser
Cotc
And many others .
Nothing wrong with odd sequel etc like a trilogy eg omen, but when they’re just milking the franchise for sake of it .
