Yesterday's watches were as follows:
Kill List: Loved it, good pace starting off as a thriller then escalating into horror.
Inferno: Really enjoyed this one, but at the same time it felt lacking in some way.
Possession: I really don't know how I feel about this one, I liked it but I kinda felt put off by it. Maybe have to rewatch this one later on.

All this is filmed by one of the soldiers on handheld cameras, and I think it breathes life into the already done to death found footage genre, certainly better than this year’s The Bay, which I found boring. I’ve gotta say I thoroughly enjoyed this for what it is, and was extremely surprised by how well the creations looked for such a low budget film; some of them were pretty ingenious.
What’s really scary about this film is the fact that this kind of thing, or certainly very similar, was going on during WWII by such insane lunatics as Josef Mengele and the Japanese “doctors” operating out of Unit 731, and that was in my mind during the film.
Overall, it’s a lot of fun and quite gory in parts and a film I’ll definitely pick up either when the price drops or it gets a UK blu release
8/10
Sounds awesome! I'll have to try and get it also when the price drops.

Can't believe you didn't like vamp! I thought it was excellent. To each, their own I guess.

RE: SCM

Possession is a really strange film. It's quite in your face, but I ended up really liking it after the third viewing.

I also liked "Vamp" but it is very much an "eighties" film and may not please a modern audience.

Vamp seems to be one of those films its love or hate. I love the pink and green glow of the film even when they are underground.

Love it or hate it, Vamp's still better than The Lost Boys!

With the boy MTDS and girl MTDS today.

ZOMBIELAND. Excessive swearing and blood, the kids loved it.

WOMAN IN WHITE. The boy shat himself so we turned it off.

ZOMBIE FLESH EATERS. Girl bored. Boy thought it the greatest film ever made after watching the zombie Vs shark fight.
