Is it a horror/thriller, or romance fluff?

(I know it's a silly question given it has a wolf eating people)

Remember Me with Robert Pattinson. A lot of shite!

Belle de Jour (1967)

Golden Lion winner from that year's Venice Film Festival with Catherine Deneuve's most iconic role. I like Luis Bunuel too and I had been waiting for a long time to see this so my expectations were high. Almost impossibly high. A bit of a disappointment then on that front. My main complaint is that it simply lacks the shock value it had back in its time.

That aside, still a pretty good movie with some very complex characters, not least among them the lead heroine, a respectable middle-class married woman who adopts a pseudonym (the title of the movie) as she turns to a secret life of upmarket prostitution in hope she can re-inject some passion into her frigid marriage. There are a number of striking ideas, archetypes and images here that won't be unfamiliar to fans of David Lynch's Blue Velvet. It's very apparent that Lynch (a surrealist, like Bunuel) must have been a fan of this movie.

Insidius.. I screamed like a baby.

a review I found of it.

I went into this movie confident that it would be a cheesy, campy romp with the same "tried and true tricks of the trade," like when the hero is investigating the creepy music coming from the basement and a cat jumps into frame, but I quickly discovered that this would not be case with Insidious. After watching the move and obsessing on it for about 12 hours now, I can honestly say it's one of the scariest movies I've ever seen. In fact, there were several points during the film where I screamed like a 13-year old girl at a Justin Beiber concert. Keep in mind I was consciously trying my hardest to keep my composure, mainly because I was sitting beside my new girlfriend of 2 months. She, incidentally, didn't make a peep; thankfully, I later found out she had her eyes closed the whole time.

I was also expecting to see some blood and guts, especially coming from the guys who made Saw, but there wasn't a drop. Instead, they used just about everything else in their arsenal to scare the bejesus out of me and everyone else in the theater (my girlfriend included). From literally the opening credits, they created an intense, haunting tension that didn't leave my body till several whiskeys and half a Xanax later. And the movie constantly feeds that tension, making even the characters' mundane family life somehow seem utterly terrifying. I was actually exhausted leaving the theater from all of the uncomfortable squirming I was unable to control. I'd say it's the most calories I've ever burned while watching a movie (well, at least a PG-13 movie).

Overall, the movie was great. It was crazy scary, thoroughly entertaining, and even surprisingly funny at times. Having said that, it will be quite some time before I watch another horror movie; I have no desire to be turned into a frazzled bundle of nerves again anytime soon. So, if you plan on seeing this movie, please consider this a cautionary reminder: it's probably best to go with someone who's already witnessed you have a complete physical and mental breakdown, so as to avoid an embarrassing drive home. And maybe bring a Xanax as well.

NOOOOOO. I agreed to see this later omfg. I don't wanna go now. I hate horror. Omg why did I agree. lkashfjkhdsa

I finally saw Scream 4. lol.

It was good. A lot of killing sprees! I think what it missed out on was the "tension" part of the killings. There wasn't too much tension. Kirby was a good character. She was hot.

It seems anyone can just be stabbed and then brought to life again.. lol like Sidney.

I do hope there is a Scream 5 and 6 though! They will have to start winding it down soon. You know.. the 3 originals being killed off. Maybe them turning against each other? Or not.. they are all 3 likeable characters. Be weird for one of them to suddenly be a killer.

I miss Randy. Lol.

Pin

One of the most ficked up horrors I have ever seen, but I strangly liked it.

[hennessy]

A Streetcar Named Desire again.
Brando is Stanley

[MTVN]

Black Hawk Down, it was alright I suppose

[Callum]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 yet again

I just never seem to get bored of it

[reece(:]

[hennessy]

Salo or The 120 Days Of Sodom
It defies explanation.
It's one of the sickest films ever made.
If you do watch it read a review first to see what you're in for

[M X]

No Strings Attached.

It was good, but very predictable. Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman are both so hot.

[Kerry]

How To Make Friends and Alienate People

Funny but typical rom/com

7/10

[GypsyGoth]

Water for Elephants, better than the book (which I never finished), very enjoyable film.

Hanna, it was lacking something, but i don't know what. Could have been a lot better, but it was still likable.

[Locke.]

Swimming With Sharks last night on BBC2, great film had never seen it before. Only about 5 characters in the whole movie but Kevin Spacey and the other guy's acting is amazing.

An easy 8.5/10

[Beastie]

The Dentist.

About dentist who drilled out all of his wife and clients teeth because his wife had an affair. He went psycho! lol

It was allright.

[Marsh.]

Shutter Island. Saw it last year but just bought the DVD.

The ending I was spoiled on but I just love the atmosphere this movie has. It's perfect late night viewing and the acting great (don't normally like DiCaprio). Very well made.

[Shaun]

The Men Who Stare at Goats

Very funny film, although I don't think it was sure whether it wanted to be a drama, comedy, parody or political film. Pretty good cast and performances though.

Am also watching the end of An Education on BBC2...good film, just wish it had actually been advertised...
