Bought these 2 yesterday and today



Havn't watched Hardware yet but watched Company of Wolves. Very surreal werewolf based fantasy horror with touches of hammer in the period detail and sets. Kind of an 18 rated little red riding hood. The film supposedly works as a metaphor for entering adulthood / leaving adolescence. Very nicely done and I think its the type of film that would get better with repeat viewing..

The Exorcist it looked fantastic. If someone had told me the opening scene in the desert was filmed last week I would have believed them. Blu-ray really does a service to the film lighting wise with the chrisp black shadows and faces picked out from them.

The sound is fantastic too, every little detail could be heard with chrystal clarity. Loved the main theme.

Soon I think I'm gonna find it hard to watch stuff on DVD.

The Exorcist was fantastic on blu ray. I watched it a few weeks ago and hadn't seen it since the cinema re-release (1998?) either and it was much better than I remember. I agree that blu ray is making it very hard for me to get DVDs anymore!

Just ordered the following, taking advantage of amazons decent 2 blus for £15:

Very much so. I actually didn't like it the first time I saw it...but by the third viewing I was totally won over!

I haven't seen it for many, many years now, wonder what I'd make of it...

I'm now Region A capable thanks to Tesco's Technika player - got Vampire Circus and Criterions In the Realm of the Senses - both look good but the Criterion transfer is a thing of beauty!
