Scanners (1981)
 

I originally saw "Scanners" in 1995 or 1996 and I didn't think much of it, except for Michael Ironside's performance which is memorable to the bone.

I re-watched it last Monday and my impressions are about the same - it's a good film with some interesting subtext and a couple of riveting scenes but it feels incomplete and confused at certain key points.

If you haven't seen it, keep it for a lazy afternoon or an after-party.

Savage streets

Once again I am dissapointed za movie was not as harsh as I expected. I thought it would be a bit more over the top. Linda Blair was rather anoying towards the end as well. Plenty of tits not enough gore.

5/10


Chopping Mall

This movie is a heap of fun though stupid at the same time. The killbots must be the worst shot with a laser of all time.

Asylum (1972)

Always love this kinda horror anthology.

Last seen was August Rush with my mom and my cousin.

Mystic River. Clint Eastwood amazes me with his directorial abilities. This movie is no exception. Penn does an exceptionally amazing role, especially against a cast of other hard hitting actors. Pretty wild that i found myself truly empathizing with an actor. Though a tad long, this flick never drags.

The Hamiltons. Gritty and brutal, this movie had a great twist. i loved the echo-sounding house, which helps expose the emptiness of their home. The twins were awsome in a disturbing way. Ashe.

Dances with Wolves (1990)

I dug this film. The story and characters were interested and it was directed and acted very well. Enjoyable all around,

Too bad.

The title sounded so promising. :(

Straw Dogs. Great flick. The acting seemed a little chunky in the beginning, but it mellowed out soon enough. Can't believe that i never saw this one. The flashbacks were pretty powerful in the church party scene. Ashe.
