Just seen the indie drama War Boys from 2001 I think.
Its a pretty good story about 3 close friends who get together again. It starts out with them trying to make sure mexicans dont cross the border and then they start to find out things about themselves and their own "borders" so to speak.

Just seen ART OF THE DEVIL 2. Couldn't really get into it. Found the first 40 or 50 minutes a bit lacking in terms of pace, and something about the character's dubbed voices put me off wanting to get to know them. Having said this, the second part of the movie kind of delivered in terms of grotesquerie, but by the time the goods came round I wasn't all that bothered. Wasn't particularly happy about a scene of fish torture near the beginning, either. Earlier watched PIRANHA (the Dante original). A bit talkier than I remembered it, nevertheless some fine moments and some surprising mean spiritedness at points. I probably shouldn't admit this, but in a way I prefer the remake - there's just something about big budget multiplex gore / faint sleaze / schmatlz that I find hilarious. If only all Hollywood trash wore its desperate lack of taste on its sleeve the way this film does.

i prefer the remake
i still think Dante's film is overrated
Aja's film is what you would expect in this film, gore, busty and naked girls and fun fx
his film is very entertaning

Just seen Playback.
Cool idea but sloppy execution, it turned out to be typical teen horror flick.

Kills were off screen and not very well done.
Shame as it might have been good flick with better director and direction.

We watched 'Human Traffic', but I liked it better when it as called 'Trainspotting'!

I totally agree. One of the best films of the past 20 years!
