I love the funhouse chase at the start. That monkey/tightrope scene is also hilarious.

This film contains one of my all-time favourite quotes. Two scantily clad young ladies are being held captive in a pit. The trap door opens, and a chunk of meat is thrown down to them. One of the starving young lovelies rushes over to it, when the others one exclaims: 'Don't eat it - it might be Rudy'! They don't write 'em like that any more!!!

Terrifier - Nasty little 20 minute short film about a woman on the road being stalked a killer clown with a thing for dismemberment. Has that whole, fake grindhouse thing going, with the retro title card, fake print damage and faded colours. Gore effects are pretty good too. Nasty ending twist. If you have a spare 20 minutes, check it out on YouTube.

For a 20 minute short, it was pretty well made with some interesting ideas. |

Valhalla Rising. (Nicolas Winding Refn). Have never seen this country (Scotland) look so bleakly beautiful. The story was there ocassionaly, but this only got in the way of the scenery for me May watch it again tonight.

Yeah, I thought it was an excellent film, although the director's commentary track explains a lot of the film away in pretty lame terms - comparing the warrior to the monolith in 2001 (?) The film is best left mysterious I think...

Yes, his bits in the "making of" were quite pofaced. When he mentioned Tarkovsky etc. Thought the DA was quite cute though
