Ya, Mandy is savage. Must watch Pig.

Might have to watch Mandy again some time, it kind of went in one eye and out the other, so to speak. I enjoyed Color Out of Space more I think.

Watched A Different Man the other night, good acting and an interesting premise, wasn't expecting how absurd it gets which took me out of it a bit, but still a decent watch.

both really good movies, I love them.

I saw last night that Stanley has a follow up in the works too: The Dunwich Horror  :abbath:

Watched Black Cab last night. As a horror it's only ok. Worth the watch for Nick Frosts performance. I also watched A Serious Man which is hilarious. One of the Cohen Brothers best I think.

That's not happening, he was accused (and cleared) of abusing his girlfriend a few years ago and the production company dropped him. Unless he's gotten funding elsewhere I believe it's dead. A shame, he had a Lovecraft trilogy planned and Colour Out Of Space was decent.


Ah, nice one. Not sure about a two-part film but COOS worked well so I suppose he knows what he's at. I think Pickman's Model was supposed to be the third one?

I'm saying fingers crossed there because, while being glad the abuse case turned out to be a non-event or whatever, Stanley remains in my mind the kind of individual where just about any outcome or eventuality is possible!  :laugh:

Indeed, he's an odd fellow for sure. On a related note, have you seen the documentary on the making of The Island Of Dr. Moreau? A truly mental shoot.

I have, a great watch. His documentary about voodoo is well worth a watch too.

I'll look out for that.

Don't know where to put this, but I'd like to have some kind of hard drive with built in VLC-like media player (notably that will handle subtitle files) that I can plug directly into a screen/projector rather than having to go via the laptop all the time. If it also had a DVD/Bluray drive that'd be even better but not essential. Anything daycent on the market that any of ye know of/have tried/recommend? Sound.
