  • Cronenberg's son has a new movie: Possessor. Quite graphic, but since I like his work (sure it's flawed but at least makes you think) looking forward to it. Would be nice to see it in the cinema so waiting for now, but that may not happen.

    Movie nights at home this week:

    1: War of the Worlds (Spielberg) Pfff annoying teenager characters...really not my cuppa tea. But technically well done, the cellar scene is grim nuff and my son said "oh I didn't expect to feel emotional" so good work, I just hate the genre.

    2: Mulan (animated one) Gammy dialogue, cultural cliches, totally not proper based on the old tale, and yet lots of fun to watch.

    3: Cure (1997) Japanese crime move where people randomly start killing others..an amnesiac claims he's involved. Creepy as hell with lots of existentialist dialogues/excellent acting. Definitely a movie that is much more than the sum of its parts.

  • I watched Cure a while ago, I enjoyed it a lot!
    I watched Calm With Horses on Netflix last night. I had a few old fashioneds in the process so my judgement might have been slightly impaired but I did enjoy it. Not exactly a romp but worth a watch!

  • You may like Pulse as well, not a perfect movie but also interesting.

    Turning into the dreaded liberal metropolitan multicultural elite house in here hah. Next is to explore African cinema, cos it's been mostly Asian/European/USA stuff.

  • I didn't know that Calm with Horses was on Netflix, thanks for the heads up. It was one of the films that I was looking forward to watching this year but didn't get to see on the big screen. Particularly gutting to ride past our independent cinema of choice and see the poster every time that I went to pick up coffee. One to watch tomorrow!
