Watched Guy Ritchie's Man From UNCLE tonight. Actually pretty damn entertaining. And lordy but isn't that Alicia Vikander one charming lady.

[Born of Fire]

The Mist. Didn't think too much of it, fairly middle of the road for the most part. Kudos for that brutally bleak ending though.

Bit of a TV movie buzz off it but it wasn't bad. The ending in the book is very different but I think the movie version worked well too. Thomas Jane's big pipe couldn't get him out of that one!

The ending is brilliant. King himself said that's they way it should have ended.

Original hellraiser, hard to beat

Also watched, freaked. Dumbest movie I've seen in a while, good craic tho

[Carnage]

Watched a sci fi I'd never heard of earlier called Cosmic Sin. Desperate future soldiers vs. evil aliens. A big pile of shite, with Bruce Willis standing around, mumbling the odd ominous line. Obviously filmed well into his decline, sad really

Original hellraiser, hard to beat

The first three are all gold in my opinion.

Think I've only watched the first 2. Love them though.

Watched Nightmare on Elm Street the other night. Can't bate the classics.

I've been rewatching my way through the Hellraiser series. The first three are class, the fourth is shite but the special effects are still decent, then the quality just drops off a fucking cliff for everything after

[Eoin McLove]

The first couple of Hellraisers are indeed excellent. I haven't watched them in years. I have the DVDS but no DVD player any more 

[Carnage]

The last one I saw was the one in space, which was about as good as it sounds. From what I gather, the last few were just crime scripts that had a few mins. of cenobites tacked on. I was curious about the new one but by all accounts, it's awful.

There's a great documentary about the first one, Leviathan: The Making Of Hellraiser. Worth a look.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Watched the Irish version of The War of the Buttons with the wee lad yesterday. Was as good as I remembered from oh so long ago and he loved it, if any of ye looking for similar family friendly viewing.

[Carnage]

Shocking acting but sure they were only childer. Harmless enough fillum.

'Fun' fact: the main young wan in it is my ex's sister.

[open face surgery]

Oddly enough War of the Buttons came up in conversation during the week. Must give it a rewatch.

[Caomhaoin]

I met the lad who was hanging the young lad off the bridge, 'who's stinkin' hands' a few times. He was in the army with a pal of mine. Taxi driver in Cork City now as far as I know.
