I'd just never got round to watching it, no other reason, it's been on my Lovefilm list for ages and finally arrived the other day.
A mate of mine has some impressive Warriors related tattoos

Revenge In The House Of Usher. Watched this last night, as always JF's cameo a delight. Decent enought print etc. Best of the later ones that I've seen so far.

Followed it with American Psycho, despite being a bit of a let down on the gore front if you've read the book, I still enjoy this film and watch it every couple of years or so. I only discovered last night that Mila Kunis is in the sequel, never bothered with it before due to it's stature as being ultra-crap, but I'm thinking I might give it a watch for the lovely Ms Kunis

Nice one Rik i knew you would like it but yes there is a BUT i wont stay off your back until you LOVE the film

Most people that are fans of the film cant stand the directors cut but i really honestly dont mind it at all. The Blu Ray PQ is fantastic well worth picking up and some great interviews with some of the stars of the film looking back on the film. Always great to see the actors look back with good memories of a film they acted in 20 years or so before.

I never watch the extras whenever I enjoy a film I rent, I always save them for when I buy the disc myself, which in this case will be in a few weeks once all this months pre-orders are out of the way.

Second time I've seen the film and I still absolutely love it, warts and all. I do hope one day a Blu will be on the cards.

The Keep is one of those films that I'm absolutely desperate to see. Been looking for it on DVD, but (like Terry Gilliam's Brazil) is nowhere to be found.

They've also got Re-animator, Scanners, Don't look now, Dog Soldiers, Basket Case & Inferno ,all great films that i would urge everyone to see if they haven't already. (i'm sure most of you have)

Also showing Splice which i quite liked when i saw it, had a distinctly Cronenbergian feel to it i thought. Was well acted and interesting, one of my favourite monster movies of recent years.

Thanks for letting me know!!! I'll stay up to see it

Brazil is readily available on dvd and Blu in the UK and the US.

I loved The Warriors (which I watched for the first time a few months back). I expected it to be a cheesy bunch of shite, but actually really enjoyed it! I shouldn't've judged a book by its cover
.

I've got so much to say right now, just notices I've posted three times in a row!!' That's because I've posted after reading every comment I want to respond to, instead of reading them all first and THEN posting.

On to the Carry On... Films. Never been a fan at all, but did really like Screaming! Probably because I'm such a fan of Hammer Horrors and neither Did James nor Barbara Windsor were in it!

American Psycho is one of the most over-rated films I've ever seen. Don't see the big deal AT ALL. Do want to see the sequel for, but only for the reason Rik already stated.

End of Life Story!!!
