Had a double bill round a mate's house last night!
His pick was Dans Ma Peau (In My Skin) - first time I had ever seen it and had no idea what to expect. It was a very interesting film to say the least - VERY slow at first - but then becomes very twisted and bizarre. I can see how people may connect this to Cronenberg but I don't think it's as re-watchable as his work.
Then it was my pick! - I choose D'Amato's Beyond The Darkness which he had never seen. I really like this film; the gore is VERY releastic, the story is brilliantly odd and it has many many tense moments in there. Unfortionatly, I began to spot the flaws in the story etc with this viewing, but I don't really care about those. It's a great film!
