mono-stereo Decent concept, executed like an ITV Sunday evening ‘drama’.

Needless to say, the wife liked it

    Homegrove watched this film as a result of your post. It’s excellent and was pleasantly surprised. 8/10

      Watched 10 mins of Havoc.

      Nonsense.

        seanc80 Managed the same. Turned off about 2 mins after the CGI truck chase.

          The Thing (1982). Another classic I have never seen. I again have no idea how. I guess because of my aversion to horror. Well, outside of a 35 mm print this was about the best way to see it for the first time I guess. 4K digital projection on the biggest screen in town at a full screening in a movie theatre.

          This film is so well referenced in so much pop culture from movie and TV show homages to memes that I knew pretty much everything about it before. Did not ruin it one bit, what a fantastic movie. Had a great time with it. And yes, jumped a few times. Horror still manages to get to me most of the time.

            Homegrove top ten movie of all time for me. The score, acting, setting, effects and story and sense of dread are top tier film making. Simply a brilliant film. How are you only getting round to it now dude?

                Millsy like I said I avoided a lot of horror a long time. I’ve obviously seen The Shining and Exorcist and a few others, but there’s a lot I’ve still not seen.

                  Yeah I’m not a big horror fan, but this film is just chef’s kiss.

                  Oh yeah, it was perfect. Even the dog was a fantastic actor. That thing acted very suspicious so well.

                  No way I’m ever administering a defibrillator to anyone, ever.

                    Homegrove Another classic I have never seen

                    You’re just doing this to wind me up now.

                    We need some sort of Rage Gage, it’d be off the charts just a Hannu’s poor upbringing.

                        The Thing is a stone cold classic.

                        Amps from the IMDB top 100 I picked classics released before 1990 that I have still not seen:
                        It’s a Wonderful Life
                        Psycho
                        Casablance (I’ve seen this, but I was so young I feel it doesn’t count).
                        Amadeus
                        Sunset Boulevard
                        Paths of Glory
                        Dr Strangelove
                        Singing in the Rain
                        The Apartment

                        Plus some Chaplin-movies I probably saw when I was a wee one.

                        Not on the top 100 which I know I’ve not seen:
                        Papillon
                        Bullitt
                        Dirty Dozen
                        The Wild Bunch

                            And yet youve watched all the Marvel films ….. christ on a bike Hannu

                            That Empire subscription being put to good use I see.

                            Sake

                              Millsy over 40 first time watches this year already!

                                The Witch

                                Shit

                                Havoc - 2/10. Not a patch on The Raid/Raid 2 (same director) and actually a bit boring.

                                Warfare. Thought I’d pop to see this in the cinema before it stops, glad I did - really needs to be seen in the cinema, even if only for the sounds. It’s a horrible watch, ridiculous tense and uncomfortable - I never jump in films, but that tank getting done by the IAD launched me. The end is a massive relief. 7.5/10
