Holy smokes, what an adventure. By far one of the best anime films I've ever seen, and definitely one of the most impressive films I've seen this year.
Two young boys, orphaned and living on the streets, have grown up protecting the city in which they live. When certain things come to threaten the hold they have on their home, they have to do what it takes to protect it. Combining love, friendship, Yakuza, aliens, kung fu, violence, and dream sequences into a swirling, beautiful mess, this is truly an experience unlike any other.

I'll check it out. On the subject of anime I strongly recommend Paprika, Perfect Blue, and Spirited Away.

Yeah, Des. I think you'd love this one.
Let me know what you think!

And by the way, I'd strongly second each of your recs.

Out of the Blue

..........................................


Home Movie

I found Indie Horror Movie Gem #2 while perusing the New Movies that Comcast On Demand had to offer...

Watched Out of the Blue last week and it was great.

Just ordered Home Movie now and I had to login and mention that it stars Adrian Pasdar who plays Heroes' Nathan Petrelli, having been released in 2008 I would have expected this to get more, as in some, attention.

I've been having pretty good luck watching "Horror" stuff that I find on Rotten Tomatoes sorted by tomatometer made this decade with a rating over 70%. I watched Eden Lake last week and Splinter last night http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/10010329-splinter/ both of which I found this way and then checked what people here had said and both were pretty good. I'm about to watch Horror http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/horror/ based on its rating there. I don't necessarily agree that stuff that's 100% fresh there is great, but pretty much everything I've watched over 80% has been good.

Edit: Horror has 80% at Rotten Tomatoes and 7.3/10 but I thought it sucked.

David Gray was a mass murderer not a serial killer.

I've been on a Luis Bunuel kick, and I thought I'd recommend his first film- a 16 minute piece called Un Chien Andalou. I'm sure many of you have seen it, but those who haven't are in for a surrealist treat.

It's only 16 minutes- you can watch it here:

Un Chien Andalou (1928)
