(in no order)

1-bladerunner ( a classic )
2-moulin rouge ( cheesy but great looking
3-the terminator ( another classic )
4-cemetery man ( surreal zombie comedy?)
5-evil dead 2 ( needs no introduction)
6-quills ( undervalued )
7-excalibur ( blood and swords..great!)
8-dune ( big worms..bit long though..)
9-big trouble in little china ( in fact..john carpenter was great back then!)
10-inferno (dario argento, not the towering inferno!)


after flicking thru about 75 laserdiscs and 30 dvds..i changed me mind again but that will have to do.. top ten directos would have been easier..i think...

arnie films are wicked!
the only films that hes made that you remotely have engage your brain for are the terminator movies,and total recall.
predator is amazing,one of my favourite sci-fi films.that and aliens.
the aliens and predator comics and books are pretty wicked too if you like loads of violence and blood.am i being really sad in admitting that ive read stuff like that?has anyone else?
thought arnie would be good in an aliens film.

I'm into my scarey shit man. Saw this film the other day that realy freaked me out. S'called "House on Haunted Hill".
I recommend it to any but the faint hearted.
Hard to find a film with a good story line AND horrific happenings!
Watch it.
Also watched Resident Evil which was good too but lacking somewhat! I think I prefered the computer game!Still a good watch though.

06-02-2003, 02:59 PM

Saw trailers for this when I was @ the cinema the other day (8-Mile is a fuckin great film btw; with a fuckin corking soundtrack!).

The re-make definately looked more polished n flashy (cos it's Hollywood baybee!!); but I doubt it will actually be a patch on the original Japanese version -- cos that was an excellent film!

Ring II is out in Japan now though.
Seen clips of it; and it definately looks like they've had a bigger budget for the sequel ... But it doesn't half look good too!

Probably be coming to an "independent" cinema near you soon ...

I reckon itd probably be pretty shit watching it the right way round. Half the genius is that you don't have a clue whats going on, like you've got the same sort of memory loss as him. Fair enough, it would clear up some of the confusion, but wheres the fun in that?

Watched XXX last night......
